Am constructing an Martyr Sauce, as there are some very good meatballs in the freezer.
It’s starting to smell good in the kitchen.
Face & eyes are still itching from hay-fever & I keep getting outbreaks of ‘kin’ acne from, I suspect, the increase in medication/increase in sunlight.
I arskew
Effing acne at 66.
Sigh

I am currently indulging the horrible fascination of Dr Pimplepopper
It’s the Bull’s fault as he kept talking about it so I went and looked it up
A lot of her patients seem to be strangers to soap and water…

I’m glad to have already scoffed dinner - fennel and smoked salmon conchiglie, in case you wondered. I’ve had a quiet day, as my poor old neck has been horribly sore. It’s well enough, now, to go back to Embra in the morning. We’re going to take DD out for lunch - GS will be at the Childminder’s, SiL will be at w#rk, Poodle will be walked and fussed over before we go out.

Home made celery salt?
Receipt please?
I use loads in my cajun spice mix
And my soups and stoos get a whisper of it too…
It gives oomph to mirepoixes I find

Some people use dried celery leaves mixed with salt, but I use 2 tablespoons ground & sieved celery seeds to 4 tablespoons sea salt.
You have to keep it in a jar with a decent seal.
Gawds, I have an craving for a BM now…
Enquires about the availability of Personalised Lobster today.

Well, I’m trying out a new printer, but so far it’ll only personalise your lobster in Chinese, so it’ll have to be hand-written. I know, times are hard for everyone.

They taste so much better…
Twellsy, I use an small screw-topped jar with a layer of plastic bag inside the lid.
It’s strong stuff, & I neither want it to go orff, get damp, or corrode the jar lid.

À propos BMs, those in an can made by the Bloody Drinks Co are both reasonably priced & very delicious.
They use top quality ingredients & there is no ‘hint of the tin’ at all.
I finished the last of my ancient bottle of L&P making my Martyr sauce.

I find propr Kilner jars with the rubber sealing ring keep my spices fresh and dry and they look good on my spice shelves beside the cooker

I do, Dunnock.
That one was so ancient that it came in a Pint bottle.
The replacement is very much smaller.
Am just letting the Martyr sauce cool down before I freeze it.

Evening, all.
We had lunch in Leith, by the waterfront. I scoffed salmon to start then scallops with chorizo butter, little gem salad and soda bread. Small glass of Chenin Blanc paired well. I allowed the others to eat, too, and we all enjoyed our afternoon. Poodle was, as ever, delighted to see us and had walkies and lots of fuss.
