    We are having freshly caught Flathead & Bream fillets cooked on the bbq, dear Hubby and eldest son went fishing very early this morning in the freezing cold,but managed to catch enough fish to have a feed, and I?m making home made chunky chips for the kids and a small tossed salad for me and Hubby,with lots of lemon juice..... for the fish and tartare sauce !

    Ok, that's the problem with telling everyone what you are doing. Tom with his throat infection just wanted cuddles so I had to do something quick and easy - so I did crumby wumby and tempura veg. Quite nice but I'm not used to deep fried food and now my tummy feels funny LOL.

    I made Beef Strog last night, and I have to say it was the best one I've made (Was exceptionally proud of myself!)
    Was sooo yum, I almost could have made myself sick eating too much

    We are taking BIL home tonight, so will be having whatever my FIL is making for us (Italian chef who's bored after selling his restaurant 8 months ago ) ... so I know it will be something Italian and something yummy
