At Home and Around

 

The sun has started shining again and it's warm enough to sit outside.  But it won't be for long. Next week temperatures are dropping drastically, so they say. From Spring back to winter. It ain't over yet.

She wants to be an interior designer and is learning technical drawing.

Finally using the airfryer!

We've had it a couple of months.

So simple to use but it took time to try out this new fangled machine. We learnt to 'fry' potatoes

and cook pork chops

I'm glad we bought the paper liners but it's an easy clean. 

Today we will cook half a chook. 

K loves 'fried potatoes' and his cheese and ham toasties done in the airfryer. 

Fresh broad beans for K. 

Cooked with onion, dill and olive oil

He eats them with a traditional garlic bread-sauce. 

More pickled onions

In the liquid vinegar and honey left in the emptied jar of  Xmas onions

Junior and Rusty have a personalised water bowl. 

It's an old clay yoghurt bowl. Sheep's yoghurt often comes in these clay pots. 

And my wee pottery lamb

Café Cat

This ginger cat entertains the gang of women-who-walk every morning as they finish their morning meet-up with coffee and hoots of laughter.

He prowls the heights balancing on the steel girders.  Looking for mice?  Or just applause.
