Janet called in this morning to bring me a pressie. Beer from Devon. I shall look forward to trying that.
We sat in the garden having a natter. A sunny day again, thank goodness it wasn't as hot as yesterday. We finished our chat in the kitchen when the subject turned to food and cooking. I opened the cupboards and showed her a few things that I buy and the meals I cook.
Tonight I made a stir fry using these ingredients. The packet sauce mixes from Aldi make it an easy meal in one pan. The oyster and spring onion variety is very nice.
The sun is going down and I have to go outside and water the pots. We'll catch up soon.

Tasty...enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteIt was. I put anything in it that I have to hand.
DeleteDebi from Leicester.Good morning Ilona.That meal looks lovely and its given me an idea of what to have for my dinner today using up a few packets of noodles.My mate Flis gave me some potatoes and courgettes on Friday so that will make a great stir fry.Its interesting to see how many people are having wild flower areas in their gardens.Ive got 3 small areas that I have left to grow and its lovely watching the bees going from flower to flower.My Mam has done the same this last couple of months with her lawn...which she normally wants cut to about an inch of its life,lol....now looks beautiful,full of yellow,white and purple flowers.We love sitting out there with a cup of coffee.xx
ReplyDeleteHello Debi. There are so many people block paving or concreting over their front gardens. We have a lot in the village. All the houses end up looking the same, no character, and boring. As new people move into a house the first thing they do is destroy the garden and start again. Usually a slab of concrete will appear so they can park six cars on it.

ReplyDeleteNasty, bitter, pathetic troll is still about.
DeleteI like a stirfry too. I costed it out once and found it was cheaper to buy a bag of the pre prepped veg so we have that with peanuts stirred through. It's a great quick supper for nights when we're tired or busy. Arilx
ReplyDeleteYes, the prepared veg in bags is certainly convenient. I like the idea that you can chop a few veggies up and add noodles, and you have a meal in ten minutes. Would you believe, my troll was complaining that I had bought veggies wrapped in plastic.
DeleteThat meal looks fantastic!!! Know I need to go through my garden vegetables and see what I can make similar 😊😊. Lots of zucchini and yellow squash ( I think you call courgettes 😊) at the moment. Deer have eaten ALL of our tomatoes…. So sad, we have had some droughts here the past 3-4 weeks. I think they are trying to find anything to eat. Hopefully the plants will grow a few more that may make it.
ReplyDeleteThe beauty of stir fry's is that you can put anything in them.
DeleteSince retirement, my husband has become the stir fry king! (well at least in his mind) I don't complain because he feeds me when i get home from work.
ReplyDeleteSounds good. Can you get him to do a whip round with the hoover as well? I could do with someone like that.
