I approve.

Ooh, maximum cheesy gooeyness!

Such beautiful birds.

Ooh yes! Would you use that in its own or combined with Gruyère/Emmental?
Asking cos I rescued my mum’s old fondue set from the 80s that she was going to throw out.

It has to be A because I’m definitely feeling the apricity today now that the sun’s up.

Morning Jen.

It’s genius & I wish I still had it. All the little details in the illustrations.

Ah, we’re not so lucky here in deepest Ayrshire but at least I love to cook & can get good ingredients.

Good balance of quick & easy, slow cooked & more elaborate. A joy to read with beautiful photography too.

I’d be prepared to try that. Quite like a little black pudding.

Oh, God! Think I need to lie down now.

Oh, that’s the best one I’ve heard in a long time.

Can’t wait to cook from this gorgeous book & hopefully I’ll get a chance to eat at the restaurant one day.

That’s so kind. Can’t wait to have both of them here for Christmas… they’re great company too!

Very much so, and some lovely memories.

Oh, thank-you. Yes, the tall lad is our son & we’re very proud of them both having MSc.
And yes, Jamie’s a very sharp dresser!

Thanks, she did this while having a chronic illness & working so did incredibly well, especially getting a distinction.

It’s a lot easier once you’ve retired. Curled up with warm drinks, blanket & books until Spring. The odd bit of TV & knitting, comfort food & the occasional quick foray outside on the days it actually gets properly light.

A week ago today at University of Aberdeen. Our daughter was awarded a Masters degree so here she is along with proud parents, big brother & boyfriend. Wonderful day ending with a fantastic meal at the Silver Darling. So many great memories.

Good idea!

Excellent article; absolutely bang on.

And as you say, he’s forgotten all about it. I hope he’s not going to want to get in the bath regularly.

Oh blimey! Glad your son in law was able to help.

Two cheeks of the same a*se.
Morning Bo.

I’m in total agreement.

Been mostly on Threads as the algorithm has finally worked out the content I like. Karel sent me a message so it’s lovely to pop back on here & catch up with folk.
