Sainsburys do a Bistro package, starter, main, side and drink.
So tonight we are having the beef bourguignon and the chunky tripple cooked chips, we had the cheescake desert yesterday, and the wines that you can choose are not very nice, so OH got 4 cokes.
I will have to start cooking properly soon, my back is almost better.
You've been slacking long enough.
Back in the kitchen woman!!
Honestly, I am not the best cook, I think my OH is enjoying being head chef.
I cook better than my GF too.
Improve your music taste and you will be quite the catch.

She loves my musical taste. She wants me to play the music when we are in the car together.
She does like a few artists I'm not really into, but she likes all of my favorites. She's lucky to have someone to expose her to so much good food and music..😉😎

It's early stages, she just wants to like the things you like. She is probably into Celine Dion and Elvis really.

I had two Harry Ramsden's sausages last night with chips.
Belters they were and covered in batter.
OH, God my worst nightmare. I can't eat stuff like that. My husband loves spam. Bleurghhhh

I can eat stuff like that, as well as spam.
But I don't.
I don't eat anything frozen out of a box anymore.
Oddly, Hawaiians have all sorts of recipes that involve spam as it was very common during WWII on that remote island chain.

I made a huge pot of beans the other day, but it's nothing like what you eat. Pieces of ham with onions,.celery, peppers, and savory type spices.
Beans with any kind of sweet, syrupy nonsense make me gag. I hear Yankees love them that way..😎

I used to, I haven't had them for ages. I suspect it's like cornflakes...you don't eat them for years, then when you do, you realise how good they taste.

I eat some sort of legume almost every day.
You can keep your toast.
Although hummus with some pita bread isn't bad..

Hummus, olives, oil, balsamic and crusty bread...I can make a meal from that.

Tonight.
Big pan of stew on the stove.
Stewing steak, potatoes, carrots, onions, oxo, salt, black pepper, all in a pan, cook for 5 hours, one of the simplest meals and great to warm you up on a cold miserable day.

Its a beef stock cube, mix it with water or meat juices...in this case 2 cups of water, it thickens up to give a rich gravy.

Doubtful.
These were her top 5 most streamed songs.
Bad Dreams is getting a lot of airplay too.
