Why is he stickin' his feet out?

He's got his weight on the stirrups and sitting forward in the saddle, probably because his butt hurts.   From riding!

I think I'll make German potato salad tomorrow.

Hot and a bit humid here. It’s going to be 37C/98F tomorrow 

 

On the menu tonight, Chicken wrapped in prosciutto topped with mushroom butter (Sorry Val) and roast potato, sweet potato and carrot 

Sounds delicious, minus the fungus-tainted butter.

I'm waiting on official word, but it looks like I'll be working from home starting tomorrow.  I'll be doing telehealth sessions with those who both consented and are able to participate.

I have a pan of beef curry cooking on the hob. One of the essential ingredients to that is mushroom.  

In the morning, after it has cooled, I shall divide it between five or so one-person plastic containers and pop all but one of them into the freezer. Quick meals for the nights I don't feel like cooking meals from scratch.

 

I intend doing something similar tomorrow evening - but make bolognese instead of curry. (Have to find some way to use up the rest of those delicious champignons )

I like to make big batches and freeze them for lunches.  That way I don't have to worry about having enough leftovers from dinner to bring the next day.  I'm pretty well stocked on soup and chili at the moment.  But now I can cook my lunch instead.  Grilled cheese sandwiches tomorrow

No. It's just being renovated. The speed I work it may not even be finished by the time things get back to normal...

That reminded me of a line from the following song:

 

When the men on the chessboard

get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom,

and your mind is moving low

Go ask Alice, I think she'll know
