Hee hee hee! I've got RIGHT into this Sunday Roast business... Today was Lamb!
I've been saving that till last for a few reasons, firstly it's bloody expensive so I had to wait until payday (it cost over £8 for this lump of meat), and secondly Mark is very - erm - particular about his lamb which puts me off cooking it in case I get it wrong.
But I didn't! I was LOVELY! Nice and tender, full of flavour... I did roast spuds again, and roast parsnips too, as well as veg and gravy. Even Jack wolfed his lamb (which I didn't expect after not managing the beef last week).
There's still quite a bit on the bone to carve too with it being a big leg, so we'll be able to nibble bits for the next couple of days too. Just need to find something nice to do with cold lamb. Seems a shame to just stick it on a butty.
I've also been getting stuck into my sewing again.
Squiggles sampler is more than half way done. This is the bottom half. I've got a bit further now, with most of the top half done too. Just have to do the pretty edging and outlines after that and then I can put it away until Squiggle is born.
Then I'll start work on my next project... I'm going to try my hand at crochet. Hope it goes better than my knitting :o(
