Tomorrow is Saturday, it normally followers a Friday, Fedora and I are going to be making a lamb roast and we have a recipe to follow this time and we are both excited. We are going to Morrisons tomorrow to get all out bits and bobs for the week and we came up with a nice little shopping list. Thank you fedora its rather handy to have to be fair. The recipe I am following is coming out of the book, cooking with herbs and spices on p29. However for copyright reasons I am not going to post it on here, but I am sure that you might be able to get the recipe online or you could get the book on ebay…sorry peeps. I am a good girl…really.

The recipes does ask for chicken stock, because I can not use stock cubes I have to make home-made stock which is easy enough, its just time on consuming. The lamb roast now seems to be a long day cooking section.

I am also going to make my mint pea sauce so I am excited about that.

Another recipe I would like to try in the book, p30…yum. But I think two recipes out of one book is enough for now, and of course I have the sideline chicken stock to make too…so I will stop there for now.

I’ve done a little bit so far already, haven’t I and its not even 9am yet…go me. But I do need to get my trainers on and drop fedora off at school and then I have to pop into town to go to an appointment. So running shoes on and ears phones charged…lets get my morning walk…see you later peeps.

I am back, its almost 12.30pm, I went to my appointment and found out that I got paid too. So I went to do my shopping and I am so happy I did. I first went to natures nutrition and bought ingredients to make chocolate…oh yeah peeps, challenge worthy chocolate. So cant wait. I got my shopping and went home. However a little change of plan. Inset of lamb roast…and following the recipe mentioned above I am now cooking chicken roast insed. The reason for this change of plan is because the lamb was just too much money for one item so I got three chickens insed. Two of them in the freeze and one in the fridge.

When I was in Morrisons I was gonna buy some hash browns but I looked at the ingredients and found a weird looking name that I didn’t know. So right there and then I googled it on my phone and I was pissed off, Dextrose…is another sideline sugar…what the hell. It means I have to do some research on this little sucker and find out what it is and what its side effects. But of course I will keep you posted. Just not tonight, maybe tomorrow…or next week. We will see.

I am going to leave it here tonight, here comes day 39.
