Little piffling snow here, but it isn’t going to get above freezing all day so if it keeps on for long enough there may be a frosting of the stuff left on the ground.
Casserole in oven
I am declining with a foodie magazine
So we put the tarpaulin down again and it’s stopped.
Told you!
The law of that awkward bugga Sod at work Fishy?
Third law of Finagle.
The pork & mushrooms were made into risotto in the end, & was lovely.
I’ll have the black pudding with Savoy cabbage tomorrow

Swoon, thud. I might only dream…
We have about 4cm snow lying. The forecast is for ‘more’ heavy snow, but I suspect the beggas of hyperbolics.
Supper was a fish pie. It’s a long time since I made one of these and we enjoyed it a lot.
Time for bed. Best dreams, all.
Soo xx
I have the makings of fish pie in the freezer. That could be for later in the week
I have used an whole box of tissues today, and, once again, look like a blotchy Rudolph…
4cm here too, & still swirling

Awake. Minimal sner. Been shopping. Eggs are the new flour, apparently.
yardarm
Awake and in possession of many many eggs as our friends’ henses have started to lay and they are not going to the farmers’ market yet
So the whole townland will be eggbound soon!
Luckily I am doing a quiche in baking group today so that is some eggs used up
There are advantages to living in a food factory
Bacon butties ready - eggs can be added if wanted
[innercent grinnity]
A breakfast world safe for Guses.
Starts frying some of the excess eggs she has forra Gus…
Evil grin!
Also frozen fish, entirely absent and other things moved in to cover the gap.
Want us to go to the fisherman near us and buy you the catch of the day - a selection thereof still wriggling?
One used to see cars with newspaper over the windscreen during snow, presumably to make clearing easier. But how does it stay there? I can see that you could tuck it under the wipers at the bottom, and into the doors at the sides; but I’ve never seen a paper wide enough to span a whole windscreen, so what about the top and middle? Anyone done this and able to enlighten me?
(The snow is now coming down in thick flakes even though the tarpaulin is down.)
A couple of sheets ovvan broadsheet used to do it, Dunnock.
I have a quilted foil cover which keeps things cool in summer, & can also be used in winter too, & that has flaps at the top, which are caught in place by the doors.
I have a roll of quilted foil used for reflecting heat from radiators back into the room, which is easy to cut & use.
As to eggs & fish, there are general shortages at this time of year anyway, because of the weather.

But what stops them blowing away?
I had a cheapie one of those from Lidl. The flaps tore off the first time I used it. Hey ho.
Dredges memory…
Digs abit deeper
Nope, sorry Dunnock…
Actually, I have remembered that those vile ‘Army’ blankets, made of coarse wool ‘shoddy’ mixed with God knows what else, used to be used too
