Yesterday's list was relatively short but the cook was long. French onion soup is both a lot of chopping and a lot of cooking.
Worth every minute for developing the flavour.
The result, four jars of soup that is entirely plant-based. Today's market is going to start off cold and heat up. A lot.
For supper, after that, cheat's chicken pot pie which is basically leftover chicken, gravy and onion marmalade with a (bought) puff pastry lid. Served with leftover roasted pumpkin on top of wilted Swiss chard from the garden.
Lastly, Rambo.
He's been in the wars after having been AWOL. Covered in scratches, limping on a big foot. Now he's a cross between velcro and a permanent shadow, wailingif he cannot locate one of the staff. Much to The Husband's surprise, he's ccepting antibiotics (and regular inspections) from The Cats' Mother with no quibble. THAT appointment is two weeks away...
Until next time, be well

- If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:
- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I plan to add them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
