I hope that you are right. Goodnight, O Bee.

Please.
Don’t want to sound smug after your experience, but no discomfort at injection site at all - couldn’t have been better. I do feel as though someone has gone through me brain with an egg-whisk, but that, I suspect, is unrelated.
Cheers, me dear

Urgle, wonky might be usual but it is no fun at all. Tuck up warm and try to rest.

Oof
Swept for 6 hours last night, & may well have an Snoozette a little later too.

Thought about altering the clocks, but swept instead, so they will get done at some stage today.

Just prepped 2 dinners - mince and onion pie in short crust pastry tonight and bolognese for tomorrow as I am seeing the pain professor tomorrow

A wretched bramble caught my wrist while I was cutting some bay to use

I now have a nitchy scratch on my left wrist

But my pastry looks OK so at least one bit of tonight’s meal should be halfway decent

I do all butter pastry bound with egg so it is very very short - good fun to work witgh

I try with pastry but I am not as good as B

She is a trained baker…

Right back to folding a bit of baking parchment many tines so I get something like a circle when it’s cut to size

I take no chances with pastry sticking to my pie dish
And my blackbird lets steam out so my top is not soggy…

I won’t mention soggy bottoms then, & leave that to ‘Bake Off’… :wink:

‘Masterchef, The Professionals’ is back on Nov 8th, for anyone who is interested.

I am discovering what a week of being unwell followed by a week in hospital does for your fitness - it wrecks it!

I am cooking in short bursts and having a sit down between bursts

Currently the mince pie filling is simmering and cooking away

I am parked on my sofa!

That’s what infection/inflammation does, Twellsy. You feel bad all over & the simplest tasks are knackerating.

I hope that the ‘Pain Man’ is able to help, but at least you know that the Poppy Juice works, even though it isn’t ideal.
It’s a vicious circle

I let the slowcooker take the strain for the Bolgnese/Ragu yesterday, & itizz meltingingly unctuously good* today.

*Not good enuff fer Masterchef though… :wink::joy::joy:

Oaf is having a lovely time playing with an emery board. Cats love 'em for some reason. The Ma’s familiar Ebony will rummage through her handbag to steal them.

For sharpening the claws?

Personally I want a bacon sandwich, with butter and no sauce of any kind. But what I have is some cooked rice, which I shall fry with egg and onion.
