I’m having a rest now and feeling virtuous. This really should be the action of a man who has filled his day with industry and is now taking a well-earned rest after a hectic day of cooking, shopping, polishing, dusting, hoovering, gardening…
I’ll stop there. Just thinking about it makes me feel tired.
In reality I dropped Julia off at work, came home, went back to bed, read more of The Most Perfect Thing, wondered why the author decided to have a quick pop at battery cages (as so many people do), then cooked three fish pies, two vegetable curries and Sheep’s Hearts with Plums.
I’m just starting to get my head round tonight’s tea – carrot, cabbage, broccoli, sweet potato (for the topping)- that should about do. I already have onions, peas, sweetcorn and mushrooms in the pie. It’s not easy, this ten a day.
Just about to start reading A Corner of a Foreign Field. Guess what it’s about? Yes, war poetry, how original. It looks quite good, with some poems I’ve not seen before, so I’m looking forward to it. It cost £2.50 from a charity shop in Whitby on Friday. I’m telling Julia it’s part of an economy book project I’m doing for the blog.
She may believe me…
The Most Perfect Thing – worth a read? Looks like my sort of thing.
Excellent book, really enjoyed it.
🙂
Nothing like a good book or two some days!
My feeling exactly.
She may believe you indeed. And the rest of us might too when it materializes 🙂 But I must hasten to add that I do envy your charity shop being fair minded in pricing (or so it appears from this chair). A nicely stocked charity shop I know of in the Midwest of the U.S. is not so favorably priced. You really feel you’re going some way to help with their efforts.
Fair pricing means I visit more often and take things in to them. We have plenty about so I have a choice. 😉
