Snowy Sunday too..........

Lady  Lainey Domestic Goddess

So after braving the elements and having a walk/slip/tiptoe/slide to Lady Laineyville, I came home all prepared to dig in and bury myself in my 'blanky' and watch rubbish on the TV. However something jolly blinking strange happened when I got back to Tykes Towers, and I think that it may have had something to do with my bump on the head earlier in the week.

I came home and started cooking!!!!! Now this is not so strange in itself as I can cook flipping well, because for many years after leaving 'finishing' school I worked in super top boys school in the south of Blighty  and there I was trained in all ways catering. However over the past few years ( mainly when married to Former Lord Lainey, who lived on takeaways) I do not cook too much apart from the cricket teas and 'banging' things in the slow cooker.

So I came home and made rhubarb and blackberry Danish pasties. OMG they were gorgeous and I think that I will be making those again. Also made super sticky chicken and egg fried rice for dinner (see pic below)

Whilst I was doing all this and clearing out the freezer ( trying to squeeze 'work boys' fat fighter meals in), and preparing super lunch and dinner, I was listening to the ODI  'on't wireless' . well England were bowled out for 155, with super Tyke Joe Root being the top scoring on 39. India responded well and won in 28.1 overs.The penultimate match is a day/nighter on Wednesday. Lets hope that they are a bit more 'together' by then.My question is,why are they not consistent ( yea I know they have lost consistently this ODI series.) sometimes they don't seem to play like a 'team' and as I often say there is no room for 'divas' and 'show ponies' in the game..........talking about 'show ponies' I wonder what the Warne/Hurleys are up too?????

Football was on!!!!!

Birmingham drew 2-2 with Brighton ( 5 yellow cards, none Rt Hon Hooligan Robbo, phewww!!!)

The Mighty Whites won 1-0 against Bristol City

The Blades  drew 1-1 against Notts County

So I am proud of all 'teams' who went out and braved the elements ( just like I Lady Lainey).

Today it is still snowing intermittently and I am going to have a walk out in it, mainly because Mr Funky the Chauffeur has gone to work and I do not want to stay in the house all day. So I am ramming the earphones of my MP3 player into my ears as I speak and having a walk to the strains of 'Raspberry beret' by Prince.

Until tomorrow!!!!

Woohooo!!!! Eat your heart out Nigella!!!!
