What did you cook/eat today (November 2017)?

You could have dropped me off a food parcel on your way home

He doshed tomato sauce all over it - which I thought was absolutely the right thing to do.

Damn!

Photos of tonight's dinner. I decided to have home made custard with the bread pudding - it looks a little pale, because I made it with 2/3 whey and 1/3 milk (the milkman doesn't come until about 4.30 in the morning!). There is an egg in the custard too. I am now completely stuffed, and think I will have to dispense with my late night cup of hot chocolate!

The shepherds pie came out of the freezer too. I freeze it in pyrex dishes which are just the right size for 1 portion and can go straight from the freezer into the oven.

Those look like dishes from a fine restaurant.

Dinner tonight. From the freezer: mixed pepper chili topped with a dollop of sour cream and shredded cheddar. Southern mustard greens from the garden and garden cucumbers.

I think the cucumbers will slow down soon. Now they are producing faster than we can eat them. I have a full day of errands tomorrow. One is near Mother's home so I will bring her a few.

I know - I could make pickles or chutney but not going to happen. I really have to be "in the mood" to can. My mind is on Cooking Bites challenges, preparing holiday food that can be frozen, food gifts and craft gifts. Oh - I also have a lot of house cleaning to do before the holidays. I think I need three of me.

Excuse my ignorance but I'm always looking for new sauces for my fillet steaks. It that sauce made with oyster mushrooms or mushrooms in an oyster sauce?

Lunch, no photos because it stuck to pan and required scraping off... But it was tasty. La Socca with a touch of curry powder.

The rest of the dumplings with beef stew. There's a little stew left for later but no dumplings.

Looks lovely! I've been meaning to try cooking fondant potatoes for ages. Its not something I have ever done. Contestants on Masterchef do it from time to time.
