Morning all (note I never said good). 4.7 on this foul, wet, grey, windy, rotten day. Seems like it’s all over the country.
Yesterday was shocking, Mr Eggy was in and out more times than a fiddler’s elbow. Not much of Project Greenhouse was done. Up early because of the plastic sheeting over the bit that’s been built, is flapping and banging, just generally making a nuisance of itself! The neighbours are probably awake too! 🙄 Anyhoo, yesterday wasn’t a total washout, I was very productive. I actually got bao buns made, they weren’t pretty, and a tad too big, but pretty tasty. I filled them with sticky duck I’d made last weekend and frozen, and added cucumber, carrot and spring onions. Delicious even though I say so myself. Also had leftover bao buns which I’ve frozen for another time. I made pesto with all the basil we have, we split a pot, we’d bought in the supermarket, into four, generally you just use a few leaves, pop it on your kitchen window sill where it will shrivel and die, or is that just me? It’s produced huge plants, which we’ll split again. I used loads of basil leaves but only managed half a jar of pesto, I’ll use even more next time. I didn’t have pine nuts so toasted some of the almonds Mr Eggy nibbles on. Tastes fine.
Today I will be mostly reading my book.
Have a good day.
