Having this morning finished reading Lawrence Durrell’s “Justine” I later published https://derrickjknight.com/2023/05/12/justine/
This afternoon I converted the following posts from Classic to Block edits, changing categories of the first two to Garden:
This evening we all dined on Jackie’s classic cottage pie and tasty gravy together with well cooked carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts. with which she drank Hoegaarden and I drank Hacienda Don Hernan Rioja 2019 given to me by Ian last night.
Oooohh, be careful, Jackie! So close to the road, you guys drive on the wrong side of the road. ????????????☺️
Thanks a lot, John
Have a wonderful weekend.
I like the expression “diced with death.” Glad she won the roll.
What goes into a classic cottage pie? I don’t doubt it must be delicious.
Minced beef with a mashed potato topping – including onions and anything else you like. Thanks very much, Dale
Ah… it is what I thought. Shepherd’s Pie, Cottage Pie, same difference, give or take the type of meat, the addition of veg. 🙂
Yes – that’s right
????
Another profitable day.
Thank you very much, Pat
My husband is a huge fan of cottage pie.
Thank you very much, Liz
You’re welcome, Derrick.
Productive day.
Thank you very much, Bridget
“Superwoman had other ideas.” She knew roundup was not required. Three cheers for Jackie!
Thank you very much, JoAnna
I agree!
and thank you, too, Lavinia
YAY, Jackie! She knows what to do!
(((HUGS)))
PS…Just for fun…
“Sleep. Eat. Buy plants.”
“Do you, Gardener, take this Garden to weed from this day forth?” (HA!)
🙂 Wonderful. Thank you very much, Carolyn
Jackie and you don’t appear to age. Perhaps it’s all that gardening. 🙂
We normally only see your garden oasis in the back. Do you hear the traffic sounds?
We do, Merril, but we have double glazing at the front and the back oasis muffles it. Thank you very much
You’re welcome, Derrick.
Hello Jackie, busy day? Have a nice weekend.
Thanks very much from us both, Arlene
Most appropriate: Brussels sprouts with a Belgian beer! Hoegaarden is actually brewed not too far from where I live. And now I’ve changed the settings I will get notified of your posts Derrick. I was wondering why I hadn’t seen anything from you for a while!
I’m pleased, Denzil. Thank you very much
I’m pleased, Denzil. Thank you very much. Jackie has been round the factory
Yay for, Jackie! She’s a hard worker.
Thank you so much, Eugi
You’re welcome, Derrick.
I see the Head Gardener is working away, her work is never done
Nope. Thanks very much, Sheree
Another good productive day, I admire your hard work.
I love cottage pie especially when peas and carrots are cooked in the mince mix. For some odd reason I call both types of pie shepherd’s pie.
It’s breakfast time and now I’m even more hungry.
We have always done the same with the name – blogging keeps me on my toes 🙂 Thanks very mcc, Sue
A quiet day with a lovely dinner 🙂
Thank you very much, Ribana
