The Long Road to pommes dauphinoise and fishcakes

Well, so far so good. We had a pommes dauphinoise the other evening with anchovies in it for me, out of a tin found at the back of the cupboard which was 9 years old (not the cupboard, that's much older), and bacon for Sue which had been in the fridge for a little while but was still within it's eat by date. Today's lunch managed to use up some blue cheese which was developing a mature smell; I made a toasted sandwhich with it in the Rayburn, using up a bit more from the the jar of rhubarb chutney which we found tucked away. Delicious.


Yesterday we took time out from the challenge, apart from breakfast, as we took a trip into Cheltenham to see Mandela, the Long Road to Freedom at Cineworld and as it was an Orange Wednesday it also included a pizza at Pizza Express. Tonight's delight will be fishcakes with some salmon from the freezer, potatoes from the cellar, and a mix of carrots from the veg plot and swede from the fridge, followed, for me, with a baked apple, yet again. Must get through them somehow, although I have been looking up how to make cider vinegar, and it does seem quite do-able.
