Friday 1st November 2019

The meal plan is late as I just could not get it right. This week we have my mum coming to stay for a couple of days and could I get my head around what to feed her.

 We also have one word going round our household at the moment and that is fiber, our youngest is terribly fussy with all textures which means we are constantly battling food. We are trying to find little ways to increase fiber into his diet as he likes so few foods.

 Friday - Quorn burgers for the boys we had birds eye southern style crispy chicken with avocado and salad

 Saturday - We were meant to have Charlie Bighams Lasagna but we had a power cut so had reduced priced sushi

 Sunday - Charlie Bighams Lasagna the boys are having pasta

 Monday - Gnocchi with mushrooms and broccoli form Madhouse Cookbook by Jo Pratt

 Tuesday - Sausage Pasta. We will be trying wholemeal pasta!!! not sure how that will go down.

 Wednesday - Chicken in red wine that we were meant ti have on Sunday 

 Chicken and red wine casserole

 Thursday - Smoked mackerel salad for the adults and homemade soup of butternut squash and sweet potato for the boys

    I hope the wholemeal pasta goes down well! It's so hard to get a look balance for kids isn't it.

Mint is trying to take over the garden

I  am trying to tidy the garden up. We are a bit tight for money this month and I want to plant lots of bulbs. Instead I am tidying and keeping busy, let's be honest the garden is a weed haven and a total mess so I have a lot to do. Clearing this border however I have made a very important discovery. That mint is trying to take over the world, one border at a time. Two years ago I planted out a very sad and mainly dead supermarket mint plant. I did not think it was going to survive or the consequences of my naive action. It did survive and it did grow and grow. I then cleared the border down that year and the next it came back stronger. This year it was at its finest. Now admittedly I did just let it grow. The children loved the smell as did I. They were picking it, making mud pies with it, it was a source of fun.
