Morning!

Mike water is good any kind of water feature is really useful for biodiversity as they say flies water skimmers etc. You are handy aren't you? Vixen is a good girl not trying to catch Fred and Ginger. Love the pusskin with the lamp 🙂

Sleek likes fish food too really likes it I think she'd eat the whole tub!

Hennifer I LOVE it Kath😁probably waiting for inspiration to take him for the others' names! Next blog up soon then?

I am so pleased Holly is taking the girls away to Skeggy they will love it. Making memories is what it's all about. The tickets should enable them to have a really good day out. They aren't cheap! I remember my single parent days with the girls before Paul. Money is tight and I was working.

Those biccies look lovely, but I I made them i doubt they'd look quite that good😳

Barbara oh dear me 25 degrees?! It was pretty dismal here although today is starting off well. The pool could have stayed up that's you in trouble😯

We went to Coventry in search of a water feature that's a bit different from the usual ones yesterday morning then Tia came over (Father's day ) and actually stayed for dinner. It was LOVELY!!!! No Mikey he was at work bless him.

If those scary looking bugs are ladybird babies then keep them we love them 🤗

My bro is going to help me attach the luggage rack properly on Penelope.

Joan we get to the camp site after 2pm so probably go for 4ish then first meet is at about 7pm on the Friday. I will take some pics of her I promise. P is still doing very well over all I think thank you. Love to you two ((())) xxx

Joan, we won’t find out until they turn up. A bit like my district nurse who turned up today in spite of the fact that she wasn’t due until next week. Oh well, it’s done now.

Barbara, yes Hennifer is named after Jennifer Anniston - I’m not impressed. I hope he lets Cam name one too. He will probably pick a footballers name.

Toni, I hope the latest blog will be ready this weekend, but now Emily is at school every day, who knows? I can’t wait to see the girls.They are good old brown eggs and she should start getting eggs from them in a couple of weeks when they have settled down.

I’m on my iPad again, but hopefully things should be back to normal tomorrow.

love to all 🙏🏽 🧑🏻‍🦼 🌼

barbara12

Evening all well today is cold couldn't make it up I had better stop grumbling when it to warm 🙄

Toni a trucker breakfast I used to enjoy them when I went out with my cousin in his truck

Did you find a water feature there are some stunning ones around especially that you have the room..how nice Tia coming round for fathers day ..nor good news here 3 children in Niamhs bubble have covid 😪so not sure when we will see her xx

Joan is it warm were you are ..I hope you don't have our cold weather today and your boiler us behaving ((((()))) xx

Kath nice fresh eggs I would be very excited to find the first one..I am looking forward to Emily's blog its so interesting especially has we like the same era xx

Love to all

Xxxxxx

frogmorton

TWO wedding dresses chosen!😁

Oh no Barbara 😮poor Niamh I hope she stays safe herself. You will see her in ten days I think that's the rule now ((()))

I have never had a trucker's breakfast, but think it might be like a greasy cooked breakfast?

We did find a water feature but it's in the box until the men put it in so I ca't show you....Paul too a pic of the display model so i need to get a copy of that! Sleek will drink out of it all the time.

It was cold here I popped the heating on for an hour yesterday, but today the sun is back out🙂

Kath I am sure Cam will choose a hen's name too. He won't be left out....but aren't there 3 of them? I bet they are all excited to get the first eggs. Were they rescue hens I can't remember?

Looking forward to the blog I'm sure she will get round to it when she can. She writes well like her Mum😉

On your IPad again? That's a bit frustrating isn't it? Hopefully normal service will be resumed soon?

I popped the heating on for an hour last evening we were all chilly, but not too long I don't like being too hot in bed. Never happy me!!!!

Morning Joan I have some news. It seems that my neighbour might get his new hip sooner that we expected....he has a date for his pre-op! I wonder if it's because she will need to go into respite🤔How are you both doing? Love and ((())) xxx

Morning to Mike I hope I expect the kettle is quavering in it's socket ready to make extra cuppas for you and the home help today! Vixen will be looking forward to some extra fuss too😊and you can catch up on the news!

Love of course to Chris and Carol.

Beautiful clear sunny day here the men should get a lot done I hope.

Mike1

Morning to Mike I hope I expect the kettle is quavering in it's socket ready to make extra cuppas for you and the home help today! Vixen will be looking forward to some extra fuss too😊and you can catch up on the news!

My normal Tuesday has been mucked up today. My Home Help is not coming until 2pm as she has blood tests this morning and I have to be at the Surgery for 1.30pm for their third try at getting blood out of me! So we will miss out on our usual brew and natter. I have been keeping track of my blood pressures over the past week as that is something else the medics are doing today and it is noticeable that, although my pressures are sky high despite being on statins, they are noticeably lower on the days that my Home Help comes or I have a visitor!

dachshund

Good morning everyone

Kath ((())) yes I expect they will just turn up with the scaffolding hen you are not expecting them. Love to Chris ((())) Anita ((())) and Val ((())) and Emily ((())) and your Dad ((()))

Barbara ((())) yes we have a new boiler now it's working well. I'm sorry you can't see Niamh ((())) we have the sun today.

Love to Mr B ((())) and your son ((())) and your brother ((())) and his girlfriend ((()))

Toni ((())) that's good your neighbour getting his per pop it can't be long for him good (((())) love to his wife ((())) love to Paul ((())) Charley ((())) and Annie ((())) and the carers ((())) and Tia ((())) and Kari ((()) and P ((()))

Mike ((())) I hope they get blood from you today. Have you got a blood pressure monitor at home our neighbour has he says you are more relaxed at home you take the reading to the Doctors. Good luck love to Elliott ((()))

;I've to Chris ((()))Carol ((())) and Mig ((()))

frogmorton

Joan I hope it's not too long for my neighbour but wonder whether it's because he has a pacemaker and they might want to do further tests🤨His wife has decided that either one of their sons can stay or respite she doesn't want overnight carers. ((())) xxx

Mike best of luck for your bloods and BP check today I hope they get your blood easily this time 🤞 if they fail get them to send you to phlebotomy they know their stuff! Interesting that company lowers your BP I bet that is true of all of us. How much hidden harm has this pandemic caused eh?🙄

Kitty

Morning from Mrs T on her laptop. The reason I was on my iPad yesterday is because the District Nurse arrived unexpectedly and put Chris in a strop! So by the time he'd calmed down it was too late to put the laptops on.

Joan, spot on as usual. That's exactly what will happen and you know who will be in another strop. I suspect his diabetes is rather active but he won't have it checked. I see Summer from Corrie has Type 1 Diabetes. Chris is type 2.

Barbara, I've been freezing since Saturday. We did put our heating on to get a bit warm. I'm warm at the moment in my vest, T-shirt- jumper and fleece and the sun is shining through the living room window. But when it moves off the window we'll put the heating on for a while.

Toni, Emily originally intended to get rescue hens but they are so popular, there weren't any. So she bought Hennifer and her sisters from a breeder. I'm sure there will be a blog (hen blog?) this weekend. Yes there are 3 but grandma Kath won't be asked to name one.

Thank you for the mushroom omelette.

Now what gourmet delights can I find?

Curried Hummus Flatbread

with Roasted Cauliflower & Olive Date Relish

MAIN INGREDIENTS

1. 4 oz cauliflower florets
2. 1 lemon
3. 1 can garbanzo beans
4. 1 tbsp tahini
5. 1 tsp curry powder
6. 2 pieces naan
7. Fresh parsley
8. 0.75 oz Castelvetrano olives
9. 3 Medjool dates
10. 3 tbsp Kite Hill vegan ricotta
11. 1 oz baby arugula
12. 2 tbsp + 2 tsp olive oil*
13. Salt and pepper*
14. *Not included
15. **Allergens: Wheat, Tree Nuts

TOOLS

• Food processor
• Baking sheet

INSTRUCTIONS

1 Roast the cauliflower

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Cut the cauliflower into even smaller florets. Transfer to a baking sheet and toss with 1 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast the cauliflower until tender and browned in some places, about 15 to 18 minutes.

2 Make the hummus

Halve the lemon. Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans. Measure out ¾ cup of garbanzos (reserving the remainder for the Fabcakes recipe). Add to the food processor along with the tahini, curry powder, and juice from half the lemon. With the motor running, slowly add 2 tbsp olive oil and blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary with a spatula. Season hummus with ⅛ tsp salt.

3 Naan time

Place the naan in the oven directly on the rack. Bake until lightly crisp, about 7 to 9 minutes.

4 Prepare the relish

Finely chop the parsley leaves, Castelvetrano olives, and dates. Add to a small bowl and stir relish to combine.

5 Assemble the flatbread

When the naan is toasted, spread each piece with half of the curried hummus. Layer on the olive date relish, roasted cauliflower, and dollop with bits of the Kite Hill ricotta. Pop the flatbreads in the oven to warm, about 3 minutes.

6 Finishing touches

Remove the flatbreads from the oven and top with arugula. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with remaining lemon juice and 1 tsp olive oil. Bon appetit!

Evening all a lovely warm day so we had a trip to the gc abd booked a table fir a coffee 🙂

Toni thankyou for the omelette ooh the water feature is there in its box. Can't wait to see the pic

I am glad they are sending for your neighbour Mr B still hasn't had an xray they said that down to the physio..surely it should he done first. And I have had my appointment cancelled till the end of July 🙄..gosh its getting scary to be poorly

Niamh has been tested but still has to isolate . We will miss her xx

Joan of course I'm forgetting they changed your boiler thank goodness I know our Aidan used to worry about it .((((()))) xx

Kath I don't like people turning up on different days or early come to that must be an age thing...hopefully your roof will ge done soon still no rain here to test ours xx

Mike the chatting must relax you ..fingers crossed that your blood's go OK abd the results are fine xx

Love to all

Xxxxxx

frogmorton

Morning!

Sun is out today but I bet it's not this weekend for the Figaro anniversary 🙄

Kath I am sort of with Chris I hate unsolicited callers, (unless it's long lost friends), they just catch you out don't they? If his diabetes isn't right he may well feel rattier than normal too.

Now you have a dilemma - you actually want the scaffolding up and the roof fixed! can you cope with a stroppy Chris again?

Sleek is going to take some of his blood while he's asleep and let you know what his sugar is doing....🤫

I am so glad to hear that all the rescue hens are sorted and on the up-side Hennifer and her sisters will lay quicker than rescues who can take a bit of recovering and settling.

That flatbread looks totally YUM! Thank you love roasted cauli.

Barbara I bet that was a lovely coffee at your GC! Aidan would be proud of you🙂

Ah yes Paul hasn't sent me the pic yet I will try to get it off him before he goes to work this morning.

Today I am going to start to load up the motorhome ready for our trip this weekend. I paid the balance at the caravan site yesterday so feeling almost ready to go!

It is very odd they are sending my neighbour so quickly he is really confused, but i think it's because Mrs is so very poorly they need him fit to look after her. I know he isn't going private he is a staunch socialist. They never X ray before physio these days probably because most aches and pains are soft tissue and treatable by exercise. Must make their job 100X harder🙄 Poor Mr B and you being postponed a bit too.

Poor Niamh. If she was a fully vaccinated adult she might not have had to self isolate at all. Or have I misunderstood that new rule?

Mike how did it go? Was it 3rd time lucky? and did you actually see your home help at all?

I hope you saw my reply to you above Joan?

I fancy a posh coffee...

that'll do now for breakfast🤔

cheese on toast vegan option available but not as nice......😒

Mike1

Mike how did it go? Was it 3rd time lucky? and did you actually see your home help at all?

Third time lucky indeed! The Nurse was the same one as last time and despite the failings then she still insisted on trying to get blood out of my arms a few times using a butterfly instead of an ordinary needle, having prodded around for a while she did resort to the back of my hand again and this time, after more wiggling around, managed to get about a quarter of a vial out which she thinks will be enough for the tests. When I got home Sue my Home Help was still there and immediately downed tools for a brew and a natter which was greatly appreciated.

dachshund

Good morning everyone

Kath ((())) yes when people turn up when you are having a meal or the phone rings. I hope the scaffolding comes soon what happens if you were going away. Love to Chris ((())) Anita ((())) and Emily ((())) and your Dad ((()))

Barbara ((())) I'm very sorry your appointment has been cancelled. and you can't see Niamh ((()))) you need good news not bad. Love to Mr B ((())) and your son ((())) and Niamh ((())) and your brother ((())) and his girlfriend ((()))

Toni ((())) I'm sorry it's rain for the weekend (((()))) I hope it changes all your hard work ((())) Love to Paul ((())) and Charley ((())) and Annie (((()))) and the carers ((())) and Lucy ((())) and Ia ((())) and Kari ((())) and P ((())) and your lovely neighbours (((())))

Mike ((())) that's good the lady found the blood ((())) I hope you get good results ((())) love to vixen

love to Chris ((())) Carol ((())) and Mig ((()))

Kitty

Morning all my lovelies.

Joan, if we were going away I expect we'd have to let them know and they might adjust the date (if they have one) or we'd have to cancel!!!

Barbara, so your appointment has been cancelled - oh no! I think you've waited long enough. 😕

Toni, he wakes up stroppy, stays in a strop all day and is still stroppy at bed time. Yes I thought of that, I hope Sleek sticks the needle where it hurts (I didn't say that, honest) Anyway I've ordered him a new watch from Amazon. It arrives tomorrow.

It's back lit so he can see the time in the dark. I bought it from Smile Amazon. but I can't remember which charity I chose. 😯

Amazon are making things so difficult for those who don't use Prime, which we don't.

lemony basil creamy vegan pasta with broccoli & sundried tomatoes

DESCRIPTION

Creamy vegan pasta made in 25 minutes or less!!! Perfectly al dente vegan pasta tossed with sautéed bell pepper, broccoli, sun-dried tomatoes, & an easy homemade lemony basil creamy vegan pasta sauce made from cashews. The easiest healthy pasta recipe – totally dairy-free, vegan & filled with veggies!

INGREDIENTS

• 8 ounces whole wheat pasta (see Recipe Notes)
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 3 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, sliced (see Recipe Notes)
• 4 ounces arugula (a few handfuls)
• Kosher salt and ground black pepper

lemon basil cashew cream sauce:

• 1 cup roasted, unsalted cashews
• 3 cloves garlic
• ½ lemon, juiced
• 1 cup packed fresh basil
• 1 cup water
• ½ teaspoon Kosher salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Boil the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, generously salt the water. Add in the pasta and cook to al dente, according to package directions. About 2 minutes before the pasta is al dente, add the broccoli florets to the pot to cook with the pasta as the pasta finishes cooking. Reserve 1 cup of the starchy pasta water. Drain the pasta and set aside.
2. Make the lemon basil cashew cream sauce: Add all listed ingredients to a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
3. Cook the veggies: Add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add in the onion and bell pepper. Season with 1 teaspoon Kosher salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the veggies soften slightly, 3-4 minutes. Once softened, add the sun-dried tomatoes and arugula to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sun-dried tomatoes soften and the arugula wilts slightly, 1-2 minutes.
4. Finish the creamy vegan pasta: Once the veggies are ready, add the drained pasta & broccoli to the skillet. Pour the lemon basil cashew cream sauce over top. Toss to combine, adding a little of the reserved starchy pasta water as you go to reach your desired consistency. Taste and season additionally with salt or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, as desired. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

NOTES

• Pasta: Obviously, to make this pasta vegan, use your favorite vegan pasta. I love DeLallo’s whole wheat pastas – they’re totally vegan-friendly. While I prefer a textured short noodle for this lemony basil creamy vegan pasta recipe (it clings to the sauce really nicely – pictured here is rigatoni), you can use whatever shape you like best.
• Sun-dried tomatoes: I find 3 ounce bags of sliced sun-dried tomatoes at Trader Joe’s & they work really well for this recipe. You’ll want to make sure to use dried sun-dried tomatoes for this recipe, not the kind that comes packed in oil, to ensure your creamy vegan pasta doesn’t get super oily.

Morning all. Thought I would get in before Frogmorton for a change, mind you I have been up since 2.15 this morning! The Surgery phoned yesterday to say that they were concerned about my BP results, in fact they are so concerned that they have booked a GP telephone appointment for me .................sometime between midday and 6pm NEXT Tuesday!

frogmorton

Morning - late in this morning had Tesco order early and it was click and collect .

Mike that's great news! Finally they have your blood

🙂

Even better your home help was still there when you got in and you could have a catch up. A day I certainly anticipated as being a probable write off turned out really well!

I know Joan you are so right. All this preparation and looking forward to the weekend, but we will make the best of it whatever the weather🙂 How are you and Sue and the carers?

Hi Kath. Oh dear me Sleek says she has checked and Chris' sugar izn't ryt. Men eh? I hope at least that lovely watch will help cheer him up.

What are Amazon doing to make life difficult? I do Amazon Smile for Click Sargent - kids with cancer. They hardly contribute anything, but every little has to help.

That pasta looks totally gorgeous and will definitely me another one I try which you've found for me/us Thank you very much 😘 I'll make extra so Kari can have it too.

Hi to Barbara I think maybe your eyes were playing up yesterday I hope today is a better day at least ((())) Do you know when you can see Niamh yet? I think you'll only miss this weekend all being well.

Love of course to Chris - still taking things steady and preparing for her cruise - and Carol Mr T and Miss Cookie ((()))

cheesy beans on toast 😋

Good morning everyone

Kath ((())) Did you see on the TV about Amazon sending new tv's computers and I pad's to be destroyed because they have to many. Love to Chris ((())) Anita ((())) and Val ((())) and Emily ((())) and your Dad ((()))

Barbara ((())) that's good you have an appointment with your Doctor good luck ((())) love to Mr B ((())) and your son ((())) and Niamh ((())) and your brother ((())) and his girlfriend (((())))

Love to Chris ((())) Carol ((())) and Mig ((()))

Sun is out, I'm tracking the Amazon delivery - nowhere near yet. 🙄 Guess what, the scaffolding has arrived. One step closer.

Joan, yes Chris read that on t'interweb. It's shocking isn't it.

Mike, I'm glad they managed to get some blood, let's hope they sort your blood pressure out. I take 3 types of BP tablets, Felodipine, Doxasosin and Ramipril.

Barbara, I'm so pleased you have a F2F on the 12th. Much better.

Toni, thank Sleek for the diabetes check. I suspected as much. Thank you for the cheesy beans on toast.

I saw a piece on TV about white cabbage and Coleslaw being good for our digestive systems, and as you know I have problems with mine. So I found this recipe you might like to try.

The Best Vegan Coleslaw (Quick & Easy)

Description

A quick & easy vegan coleslaw recipe just like what we remember digging into growing up. It’s creamy and crunchy with the perfect amount of bite, plus it only takes 10 minutes to make!

Ingredients

• 3 cups chopped cabbage
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 2 medium carrots, shredded
• 1/4 cup chopped parsley
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Dressing

• 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise (we use Follow Your Heart)
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon celery seed
• 1 tablespoons apple cider vinegar plus more to taste
• 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients for the dressing until uniform. Add in the remaining ingredients and mix together until well combined and uniform. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Place the coleslaw into the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to set. Enjoy!

Mike1

Mike, I'm glad they managed to get some blood, let's hope they sort your blood pressure out. I take 3 types of BP tablets, Felodipine, Doxasosin and Ramipril.

Thanks. I am on Simvastatin for my BP. Had a call from the surgery today, they want to repeat the blood tests next Tuesday week!! At least this time they have booked me in with the Senior Nurse Practitioner.

barbara12

Evening all we gave a little bit of rain not enough to test the roof tho😅

Cheesy beans thankyou Toni ..my eyes are a pain..but will carry on has long as I can ..think it will be a week for niamh ..xx

Mike honestly so that is an urgent appointment 😳xx

Joan it's a face to face with a consultant I think then again I won't know till i get to the hospital ..the poor carers its bad enough for the pay they get ..xx

Kath thanks..has Chris got his watch ..what did he think

Thankyou for the coleslaw recipe something u have never bothered making..and I gave my shredder ..might use it for the first time 😅xx

Love to all

Xxxxx

frogmorton

Barbara I missed your post it was MY eyes playing up😳 Or my brain....

Yes l agree just one weekend without the little ray of 🌞 Niamh 🙂

Great news about a face to face with a consultant of all things!! Wow! I am impressed and very pleased. I bet Mr B is secretly jealous.....

Mike gosh yes they do need to see you urgently don't they?🙄 Still my ex MIL has an urgent one for the 7th so I think it's a countrywide issue. Honestly what is going on with GP surgeries??? My parents both took simvastatin. Don't forget to tell them how company makes a difference to your BP I think it's really interesting that fact.

Joan the poor carers - how long do they think they will have to work to rule before things get sorted out for them? They must be heartily sick of it all😕 All ready to set off probably after lunch let Paul go into work this morning if it makes him happy. Love to you and Sue ((()))

Kath I LOVE coleslaw and make a 'pink' coleslaw? Tesco sell it it's coleslaw but in a sort of vinaigrette dressing ? Now I can have it like 'proper' coleslaw Thank you so much.

Oh Kath that is very odd because my scaffolding has gone for now! and yours arrived🤨 Good news though. All the neighbours will be talking!

Amazon are really naughty doing that it makes me very cross indeed😠Waste! Just so no-one can have stuff cheap or free!

I think Sleek is going to monitor Chris' sugar daily now she enjoys taking blood even if it is 'only' finger prick type.

Better get on I want a shower and hairwash before we go even though the motorhome has a good shower I might as well😉

Love to Chris and Carol and anyone who pops by

hope you're impressed I did it posh!

dachshund

Good morning everyone

Kath ((())) that's good the scaffolding has come you might not be able to keep it long Toni will want it back. I take Doxasosin 2m and 4m. Love to Chris ((())) Anita ((())) and Val ((())) and Emily ((())) and your Dad ((())) have a good weekend all of you.

Barbara ((())) I'm sorry it seems a long time since you saw Niamh ((())) Good luck with your face to face ((())) love to your Son ((())) and your brother ((())) and his girlfriend ((()))

Mike ((())) how was your blood pressure doing. I take Doxasosin. Have a good weekend love to vixen ((()))

Toni ((())) At last the weekend Come good luck. Sue's carers work from 6 45 when they come here and they finish at 11 30 at night I don't think it's right they've tried to complain but he won't take any notice. Love to Paul ((())) Charley ((())) and Annie ((())) and the carers ((()))) and Lucy ((())) and Tia ((())) and Kari ((())) and P (((())) and your lovely neighbours ((()))

Love to Chris ((())) Carol (((())) and Mig ((()))
