Cooking – 22 January 2025

A busy day. Crawford and Nancy were coming for dinner.

I hadn’t been feeling great in the morning and grabbed an extra half hour snooze after taking a couple of paracetamol. They didn’t seem to do much good, so I drove over to Tesco to get more veg and stuff for the dinner and by the time I came back the pills had kicked in and I felt a lot better.

After dinner I took a camera out to St Mo’s and got a few photos of a tough old Bramble branch with lethal looking thorns.

The rest of the day can be condensed into some bullet points.

  • I was making Mushroom Soup
  • Scamp was making Chicken Stroganoff for main course
  • Scamp was also making Tiramisu for the dessert
  • Neither of us were really impressed with our creations, but they seemed to go down well with the guests.
  • The guests arrive just after 7.30pm and left about half past midnight.
  • We loaded the dishwasher after they left and went to bed.
  • I had to forego my usual dinner party whisky because I was driving to the dentist in the morning, and it was already late.

Tomorrow it looks like Windy Willy is coming round again!
