Good morning all.

I was late up this morning.

I've got a grory hop being delivered between 10am and 11am. I don't know why I didn't start having it delivered years ago. The only thing they haven't got is one sort of blue cheese, but I'd pre-empted that happening and ordered two sorts anyway. I'm paying £4 a month for a midweek delivery pass, which means I can get deliveries at no extra charge on any Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, up to one a day. I think it's an absolute bargain. No lugging heavy bags around.


My shopping has arrived and is now safely squashed into the fridge, freezer and cupboards.

I think we'll be having basic pancakes again at some point today, with a sprinkle of sugar and some orange to squeeze over, or raspberry vinegar. I must say that I've never really been a fan of American pancakes, even in the USA. I've just googled an Aebleskiver pan and the recipe. I've a feeling Mr GF would take to them in a big way. My pancake pan is just a cheapo Aldi non stick frying pan, which I bought after I nearly broke my wrist attempting to toss pancakes in a cast iron Le Creuset pan a few years ago. I also tend to flip them with a spatula these days.

The sun is now shining. I think I'll get the washer earning it's keep.

Afternoon all.

Oh, looks like I'd better go out and get some more firewood in before the rain starts up again. Back in a bit...
