Evening everyone,
Hope you have all had a good weekend? The weather here has been great all weekend. Hubby has been out in the garden tidying up and moving things around. A sort of spring clean for outdoors. I've had a lovely chilled out weekend, just pottered around and done a bit of housework and baked. Today I went to the farm shop to pick up the veg for this week, don't need any meat as we still have loads left in the freezer. Also went to our local discount shop for toiletries and cleaning products, it is so much cheaper than the supermarket. Cooked a huge gammon joint today that I bought at the abbatoir for just under £4. Put it into the oven on gas mark 5 with a little water and covered with foil. Left this is as I baked a cake and a rhubarb crumble. Then I took it out from the oven and removed all the fat from the top and  basted it with honey and wholegrain mustard. Returned it to the oven for another 20 minutes just to crisp up and it was done. Had some of it  for tea with leeks, cabbage and mashed potatoes. There is plenty left over and as I also cooked extra cabbage and mash we will be having it tomorrow with bubble and squeak. As I was cutting up the vegetables I saved some cabbage and then finely sliced  a carrot and half an onion then mixed together with a little mayonnaise and salt and pepper to make coleslaw to have with my salad this week for lunches at work.

Been a good day too with the dreaded agoraphobia. I was quite happy to browse the farm shop alone while Hubby stayed in the cafe reading his newspapers with a cappuccino. Didn't go for a walk today with the dog as I was busy baking. ( Not an excuse honest!)
Enjoy the rest of your evening and take care.
