Monday

This is a little earlier and a bit shorter than usual because I am back to work this week.  Yes, I have a five day stint with the same class all week which is very nice for me.  I say five days but it is really four days as I would be doing one day anyway.  I am just a little concerned about stamina.  I wasn't really winging it by the end of the summer term and I've got a bit lazy since then.  Fingers crossed.

Yesterday brightened up once the mist cleared and it turned out to be a gloriously sunny and mild day for the first of November.  As I had promised myself, I had another go at pastry for quiche and it was a lot better this time.  In fact, the whole meal was jolly tasty and I'm glad there are leftovers for lunch today.  With the leftover pastry I made more mince pies: Beth and I accounted for some at lunch time and the rest are in the freezer for another time.

Today - well, teaching, of course.  Hopefully nothing will be too difficult to prepare in a hurry.
It's misty again so I have hopes of another lovely day!  Fingers crossed.
Goodness knows what I will do this eveing.  Sleep, I expect!

And today's food?
Breakfast:  porridge and spiced plums
Lunch: quiche, salad and walnut bread, apple
Dinner: Steak, fried and peas.
Playtime fruit

For now I need coffee - caffeine today, I think!
