Hi, Jan, know what you mean, it's been very cold here in Sydney,was 8.6 Thursday morning, but thank goodness, no rain with it. Only those clear skies that indicate snow & frost, & it did snow in some parts, they said down to 700 metres!! I'm typing this at 2.56 pm, the thermometer in here is telling me it's 14 degrees, my fingers are frozen!!, I have the blinds up to the right of me, & the Sun is streaming in, but not very warm....it's also been windy here, coming right off Antartica, too, as you would have been getting , too.
What cheats are Smiths. Good job I can't afford any , then , isn't it? We must be so vigilant with the labels.
Just had a cup-a-soup, to warm my hands around, mainly!! hehe
My dearly beloved has been watching Gary (Masterchef) cooking stocks etc. so decided he was going to do one, has spent ages in the kitchen, faffing around, roasting veg to put into stock. Then tells me he put a small piece of pork into some foil & is roasting it in the oven. So now we know what dinner is gonna be!! Dry roast pork with strong tasting gravy on a bed of mashed potatoes. He thinks that just 'cos I bought potatoes today, he has to use them all up in 2 days. (4kgs?)...haha..Hope there are going to be heaps of steamed veg as well....only kidding. I'm very grateful to have him cook for me, seeing as I have lost the will to cook in my old age....He's good at most things, but sometimes, well, he misses the mark, & unless he says it himself, can't bring myself to be too critical, it hurts his feeling so.
Bye for now
Spread the Love
