I sat down a few hours ago to wrote a blog post about how I'm frittering away time. I realised how daft that was, so I made myself get up and do somethign necessary, like Domestics.
I'm back now.
The meringues were amazing. I've never been a fan, always found the things chalky and sweet. These ones, following Delia's recipe, were sweet, but were a little chewy and very addictive. They apple curd worked superbly, to tone down the sweetness.
I'm having such a lot of trouble with my back. I had a double "Chiro" appointment on Tuesday, and Tania did a whole load of things to try and help alleviate my symptoms. . I felt better about an hour after my appointment, and I still feel better now than I did. It's still really uncomfortable though. My NHS physio consultation is at the beginning of November. I hope that helps resolve things properly (although I don't really believe it's the cause of my issues).
Anyway, no point dwelling on the aches and pains here, no one likes a Moaning Minnie.
so, in an attempt to ignore the discomfort, I've done some more preparation for doing some Christmas Card embroidery. I suspect I'm going to run out of time, I really need to get on and do some more. I wish I could have the machine downstairs, but it's not practical. The cats would have a field day, and it's far too dusty down here.
It is tempting though.
I've also got stuff out to defrost so I can bulk cook some chilli con carne, and some bolognese, tomorrow. It's so lovely having a selection of ready meals in the freezer.
