Tuesday

Good morning.

After a dull day yesterday, the clouds must have lifted overnight because at the moment it is extremely cold and there's a frost!  Once again, I am thankful for my central heating!

Thank you, Google Images.

Yesterday was really a pottering day.   I baked and my friend worked.  We talked about meals as she has some specific dietary needs and I made a shopping list.  Then I popped in to school to deliver the bread, find out what I am teaching this morning and do the shopping.

Then it was home again for lunch - home made broccoli soup with bread to dunk - soda bread for her and a roll for me.

After a little while, we drove to Admirals Park, a lovely open space in the middle of the town but somewhere I have not really used.  We meandered around the gardens, across the bridge and along the river, sad on a bench, had a good natter and then came back again.  Brrrr - it was jolly chilly and there wasn't much sun to warm things up either, but it was pleasant and I shall go again soon, especially as there's a very nice, purpose built, free car park by the side.

I shall definitely have to go again in the summer, when this Google photo was taken.

Once home I set to and made a fish pie.  It was a little bit of a challenge because of what my friend cannot have, but it was delicious and I shall make a note of the recipe for another time.  Suffice it to say there was none left!

Then I had an early night because of school this morning.  I have the plans and remember teaching those lessons last year.

I'm not sure what we're doing this afternoon but we will go out somewhere, weather permitting, maybe along to Hylands.
