I need to buy a 'gadget'. My sister-in-law has one I can borrow to see how I get on with it, apparently butternut squash spaghetti is very good

I only bought my gadget thingy yesterday, so I am a first time user.
Loved the Zucchini Noodles, but have learnt a valuable lesson. I turned mine without any breaks ( and it was a big Zucchini) and the noodles were about 4 foot long as a result. Too long. ( ha!....hubby was pulling and winding and pulling and winding...it was hilarious to watch. ). Must cut them to a more user friendly length. They were delicious though.

He has since remarked that it was rather like eating dinner from my knitting bag...

I extended the mutton with carrots and cauliflower and had it X 2 for dinner and tea. Cheese and oatcakes and an apple for pudding.

Tuna and Cauliflower Mornay, with Baby Peas.

Chicken & leek pie with roast potatoes.

Cauliflower and Cheese Soup.

Mutton for dinner. I treated myself at teatime and had one teacake with an egg fried in butter.... Cheese and oatcakes and an apple for pudding.

As we had fish & chips in Skipton at lunch time (at Aunt Bessie's - not up to usual standard), hubby had a ham sandwich & I had strawberries & cream later.

Bought some raw Prawns, which I shall crumb and fry...and serve with Air-Fried chips. ( love the Air-Fryer, it does lovely chips)

Last of the mutton for dinner. Steak and eggs fried in butter with peas for tea. Cheese and oatcakes and an apple for pudding.

My hubby really doesn't like take-away food, and unfortunately I did such a good job of the crumbed Prawns, he says we should have these from now on. They were yummy, I must admit. ( groan)

We had spicy meat balls in a meditteranean tomato sauce with chips & garlic bread.

David does right to avoid take-away. The only one I trust is good fish and chips.... He paid you a compliment!
Two chicken legs and a Scotch Egg for dinner. Steak pudding and peas for tea. Cheese and an apple for pudding.

Made a massive pot of Pumpkin Soup. It's his Lordship's favourite...

Roast rib of beef, new potatoes, asparagus, yorkshire puddings & gravy with strawberries & cream for afters for hubby (had mine at lunchtime).

Maz, my mate Martha made pumpkin soup in the shell of the pumpkin, baked in the oven. Ever tried it?
I had pizza for dinner, Mutton, tomatoes and peas for tea with an apple for pudding.

I've never cooked it like that, though I've seen it served at a dinner party. I use butternut/Japanese pumpkin ( different shape).
I have frozen the rest of the Soup as I didn't fancy it two nights running. Hubby would have it every night for a week, but he's getting slow cooked Braised Steak and Onions tonight...with Cabbage, Carrots and Mashed Spuds.
I've been finishing off my Ancestry filing as I attend a free Ancestry course on Thursday. ( must be organised Maz!). It is Australian Ancestry, and I am on the hunt for new ways to discover records of my son's Ancestry. He has some superb ancestors! No criminals ( they were all free settlers and some even paid their own passage, others were assisted). I've only turned up one shady character so far...a fraudster/conman/gambler. He was fun to chase...he got caught every time and just stumbled from one predictable disaster to another.

Maz. My Granddad in Oz, old Alex, had a shady past.....
I had a small bowl of mutton and pea for dinner and just Stilton and oatcakes for tea with an apple for afters. First picking of fresh mint today, gave a lovely twist to the Mutton.

Had gammon, jacket potatoes & mushy peas last night.

Mutton and peas for dinner. Pizza followed by Stilton on oatcakes and an apple for afters.

We had chicken stir fry.

Small bowl of Mutton for dinner and tea and no cheese. I weighed myself yesterday and I have put two pounds on!! Action this day.....

That will be the pizzas Stanley!

You could be right Wendy and believe me I am tightening things up! Basically, eat less!
