Winter weather.....on the plus side.

I can't believe the last time I was on here was the end of September... It was Autumn and the days still had a stretch in them.   Well it's now Winter and the days are short and dark.  Tonight we are having a storm on this side of the country...a big one too by the sound of it, the Met office have issued a "red alert" warning for all along the west coast.  But what can be nicer than to be all snuggled up in an armchair beside the fire listening to the wind howling outside..... And a nice cuppa and your favourite biscuit...well 2 Ginger Nuts to "dunk" in your tea....

It was the kind of day you didn't know what to do, though there was plenty I could be doing, like, washing and ironing to name a few things but I did put one load of washing in the machine, come to think of it it's still there, not good housekeeping!!
 However I opted for a bit of crafting instead.   I have lots of new ideas I am trying out.  It was too cold and wild to go to my "Studio" and also  because there are some repairs that need to be done so I took over the kitchen table instead....suffice to say with all the boxes and bits and bobs it was well covered, papers, glue, glitter everywhere.  Then of course it was time for dinner, there was a recipe for chicken thighs I wanted to try but it had to be quick and simple...it was!

Stuffed chicken thighs with skinny fries and baby leaf salad with coleslaw and Caesar dressing.

Was it good?? 

I think so.......

It has to be the cheapest dinner ever...... Cost about €1 per person....

1 bag Skinny French Fies 99cent (serves 4)

6 Large Chicken Thighs €2.39  

lettuce and coleslaw were on special offer

Would you like the recipe for the method to stuff the thighs?? ...... 

Ok ... I'll post it tomorrow.......

See you then,
