Carrot cake
Carrot apple and peanut soup
Grated carrot and cheese and mayo sandwiches trust me on this one

Or chop and freeze.

We get through loads of carrots as d’s loves them. Raw carrot sticks as a snack and he’s in heaven. Oh to be 2...!!!

Just been for my run. Tired now!

Em can I have the soup recipe that sounds interesting

On the interesting sandwich front lettuce cheese and mango chutney is a winner

Hello! Yesterday was completely dreadful. Today is another day.

Wolf what time did you manage to get stock on the Doves Farm website? I’ve been looking this morning but it’s been out of stock, I wonder whether I missed it?

Wolfcub · 21/04/2020 11:20

Sea I think it was about 10.15

I looked thurs- sun and nothing then but that was at all times of day

Ah, there was no banner when I was looking an hour ago (after seeing banner previously ) so I was hopeful, but... no. I’ll keep trying.

ememem84 · 21/04/2020 11:44

wolf the soup recipe is one from Pinterest. I’ll see if I can find it. But basically:

Onion carrot chopped. Soften in oil. One apple. Chilli. Chicken stock. Peanut butter.

ememem84 · 21/04/2020 11:46

Except no apple.

Wolfcub · 21/04/2020 12:03

give I think people generally have just gone a bit bananas over all of this. I get it’s a fear response. But all I want to do is yell at people to mind their own bloody business!!!! Like the woman who told me I should be wearing a mask. Or who told me I shouldn’t be taking the kids to the beach to run.

You do you. And I’ll do me.

I wouldn’t want to be taking the kids to the shop at present. But totally get that some people have no choice. So I wouldn’t question it.

Carrot sandwiches are great happier

Dm used to make us grated carrot and raisin white bread sandwiches when we were kids.

It has to be grated carrot in a Sammie though.

We’ve just had this delivered.

This my friends is a ton of sand. Dh is building a wall as part of the garden makeover.

Ds was pretending to nap so I got him up and let him watch the truck crane it in. Absolutely fascinated.

SnugglySnerd · 21/04/2020 16:13

I've been trying to do a Doves Farm order too. Will look on Thursday.

We are having shepherd's pie for the carnivores and some of last week's bean casserole for me both from the freezer. We don't really have enough potatoes to go round so I'm doing some rice with it too and frozen peas. We are really getting to the point where we need to visit a shop!

ememem84 · 21/04/2020 16:29
