Family life update

Smudge is now 2 1/2 weeks old, and as cute as can be! The jaundice is gone, the sticky eye is getting better, and he's fitting in just fine.

Jack adores him, Tom only has short moments of green eyed monsterness and generally has affection for George. Mark is finding it all a bit stressful but I expected that. He went back to work this week and I think its for the best ;) J & T are getting kicks out of winding him up, and G cries at daddy but not mummy (but like I said, Mark is tense and I am the food so what does he expect???)

My dads been over from France this last week so I have a ton of photos and videos to post (later when I'm not blogging from my phone, in the kitchen, cooking the roast, and rocking a baby)

Recipe: Pigsty Pie

This is one that we made up, although we are far from the first or only people to make a pie using pork or pork mince and call it a Pigsty Pie. So let's just say that this is our version of it. It smells great and reminds me of stuffing at Christmas, making it feel much more "naughty" than it is! This serves four people and it a nice 9 points per serving. You will need these for the mash: 400g potatoes 400g sweet potatoes 4-5 good sized carrots Salt Pepper Nutmeg Simply chop the roots, boil in salted water until tender, and mash! Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. The pie filling: 10 sprays low fat cooking spray (e.g. 1 cal) 1/2 lb lean pork mince 2 onions, finely chopped 3 apples, diced 1 leek, chopped 5-6 big mushrooms 2 tbs plain flour 1 tsp sage 1 tsp parsley Salt Pepper 1 vegetable stock cube 1/2 hot water 2 tsp English mustard Fry the onions in the cooking spray until they start to soften, add the mince. Once the meat starts to colour add the apple, leek and mush
