Post-computer breakdown - Saturday 23rd May 2015

Thank goodness for my iPad!

My computer broke down last night.  He fixed it seemingly, I used it for a while then it went blank again.

I have one more opportunity to get going again tomorrow morning and if that doesn't work I shall have to get going again with another computer also tomorrow.

Wish me good luck!

Bye for now

Food post-Adderbury Community Food Market - Thursday 14th May 2015 - Saturday 23rd May 2015

So hard to come by with no in-house presentation so to speak off with all those splendid internal bits and pieces no longer sold with the chicken you're roasting for that mid-week feast!  No giblet gravy, nothing for stock and definitely no liver for a little pot of homemade chicken, pate for lunch on hot toast! Of course you would need livers from a few chickens to make pate and of course I have bought tubs of such before, just not for a long time, which it was why I was so pleased to find that item at Adderbury's Community Market last week from Moore & Lyon Produce at Contact -  chummy567@yahoo.co.uk.

It's been quite delicious eating hot toast with chicken liver pate for lunch this week. I shall be hoping for more of them at next month's market which is I believe is on Thursday, 11th June 6 - 8.15pm

And here is my very quick chicken liver pate with  red onion on freshly toasted homemade organic flour bread...

  
my very rustic looking pate - delicious!



I bought freshly picked rhubarb from Mr. Anson's Veg stall which I cooked to a nice soft collapse with very little water and no sugar, for eating with my seed muesli...


From Ellie's Kitchen for her tempting Greek food, Dolmades and Tzatsiki which I ate with hot buttered toast...  Ellie's Kitchen contact at  ellistago@gmail.com








Lovely simple food for my week of non - to low gluten food week.  The bread is made by Him Indoors from organic flour by Dove Farm which is excellent for me, its organic status gives no nasty side-effects such as bloating, nausea or worse!  I've been eating his organic bread solidly now since January and Ive been blessedly free of problems.  

Well, the only problem - there has to be one, hey, is that bread makes you weigh in more heavily, you know what I mean which means I really must now reduce my weekly consumption of bread. I don't want to grow any more!!!

I'm writing this most anxiously, for my computer died on me last night and its only because Him Indoors looked on You Tube for a solution to my solid black screen, then fixed my problem, that I'm now here writing to you...  I shall buy Him a cup of coffee later on!


OK must dash - I'm making organic WI recipe Victoria Sandwiches for my church at Kidlington's summer Sunday afternoon teas and I must put in a little practising; He's watching the practise sessions/qualifying sessions for the GP in Monaco so the house is very quiet and concentrated, which is just as well after the drama of the non-cooperative computer mare!!!
