MPM: 28th April 2014 (aka Back to Reality)



Ugh, back to work.  And do you know what makes it worse?  Remember when I had to go and deliver courses at a remote training facility in the wilds of Lincolnshire?  Well, for three days this week I have to go and be on the receiving end of a course at a remote training facility in the wilds of Lincolnshire.  I am not happy about this.  For one thing, I am being trained in something that I already know how to do, for a second thing I have to be away from my cat husband and for a third, I will be subjected to what can only be described as school dinners for the duration.

Things will pick up at the weekend though, since we're off to dinner at Masterchef finalist Sara Danesin Medio's York dining club.  Tasty Italian food and maybe some insider gossip about Toad and Egg - I can't wait.

So, a shortish week in terms of meal planning - D will be freezer diving while I'm away (or getting chips from the end of the road) and we'll have soup one night.  The remaining nights will consist of:

Corned beef hash

Cauliflower and macaroni cheese with a bacon and rosemary crumb topping (a Jamie O 30 minute meal that we first cooked a few weeks ago and were impressed enough to a) buy the book and b) get it back on the menu asap)

Chicken and new season asparagus (hurrah for British asparagus season!)

More meal planning fun over at Mrs M's.

  3. Poor you having to go away training, I am envious of you going to Sara's supper club, I have wanted to go since she opened it.

    1. It's leaving the cat that's the hardest thing! She's still so new and nervous, I just want to cuddle her all the time!
