This is entirely for my benefit, so do feel free to ignore! I find the blog so useful for remembering what I did and when. The brain is utterly not helpful in this regard, must have been all those drugs I did at the turn of the century.
So, a new series: what we’ve been eatin (our eating weeks commence on a Friday, shopping night generally being Thursday) …

And just to prove that I’m not randomly grabbing things from recipe books and pretending that we’re eating them:
Hearts! It’s not a Carol pie unless it is covered in hearts
Currently cooking and smells divine.
