@gingercat02

[www.recipetineats.com/vietnamese-caramelised-pork-bowls This]] one of DS favourites and dead easy, also seems a bit treat like for a rainy Saturday night
Thank you @gingercat02. That looks so nice. We had a quick bbq and dodged the raindrops. The corn on the cobs were delicious.

I couldn't be bothered to even turn the oven on, which is my usual minimum.

So I had peanuts (in Grey's Anatomy's Joe's Bar quantities) and some goats' cheese. Will probably also have a nectarine or two before I go to bed.

I made bread with the bread maker and had antipasto with salad, boiled eggs, olives, cheeses. The bread came out hot and the butter melted.

DD is away with her dad so... umm an M&S scotch egg. A green pepper. A rocket ice lolly, some grapes. Some home cooked gammon with English mustard. Dark chocolate and spoonfuls of crunchy peanut butter and sea salt sprinkled on top. And some Greek yogurt.

When she gets back she's having a sleepover with a load of friends so I have literally bags of sweets, popcorn, biscuits, crisps and chocolate which I resisting the urge to savage.

Ddog had a licky mat with peanut butter, yogurt and liver sausage. Grin

We had homemade pizzas with yoghurt pizza dough that I’d seen mentioned on another thread yesterday. DH usually makes the dough ages in advance and spends the day fretting about it, but this was really easy and came out well.

Extra veggies on top and I had piles of anchovies too.
