My first prep was actually on Monday. I have decided to try and cook a nice big meal on a Monday, to use up anything that is left, and to make more room in the fridge for when my grocery order is delivered on Tuesday. This time, I adapted a Madhur Jaffrey recipe…
What's On my Workdesk this Wednesday? Same as last week - a mess. Also, like last week, my creativity has been away from the studio, in the kitchen and on my lap in the sitting room working on Phase 2 of my Eco Project. Eco Project Phase 2: Make-Up Remover Pads I have…
After my normal Tuesday grocery delivery, I spent my usual time in the kitchen prepping vegetables. Today I decided to do a nice lot of roasted veggies. They take up less room in the fridge and are instantly ready for different meals. As usual I saved all the trimmings and made about a…
I had my usual grocery order delivered this morning. I didn't order quite as much as last week, which was a simply mammoth amount of stuff! I've still got quite a bit left over from last week as we've been out a bit and I didn't get round to cooking and eating it…
What's On my Workdesk this Wednesday? Nothing new, I'm afraid. Still working on my eco project, so the sewing machine has been in use in the studio this week, and I've been doing some hand-sewing while watching TV etc. I am waiting for a couple of things to arrive from Ebay which should…
Another nice grocery delivery this morning, nearly all of which was fruit and veg. Once I had unpacked it all (too much plastic! Is it really necessary to cling-wrap a head of broccoli?? - bag of wrappings on far right), it looked as if I was about to celebrate Harvest Festival in my…
Today my hubby brought in the first of the apples from the little tree in our garden. They were windfalls which had come down in last night's high wind and rain. They weren't very big. We don't know the variety of apple, but they have a delicious flavour, and can be eaten raw…
WOYWW What's On My Workdesk this Wednesday? Not a great deal - just my Cuttlebug and some dies, to cut some pantry labels. Labels for the Pantry Some time ago I made printed labels on the computer for my glass jars in the pantry. I really like these, and need to print off…
Tuesday is a good day to do the bulk of my meal prep, because my groceries are delivered in the morning. I can chop and slice at the same time as sorting everything out, and washing the fruit, etc. I began by peeling a large quantity of fresh root ginger. My freezer supply…
WOYWW What's On My Workdesk Wednesday isn't much, but slight progress on last week! Here are my teabag stains on watercolour now that they are dry. They are ready for doodling on, or otherwise embellishing. In the meantime I've been working on my little eco project, and I'll blog about that once it's…
