Chilly, but bright and sunny here chez Casa Reynard.

The crock pot is locked and loaded with the sauce for tonight's pasta bake. Used the two dented cans of plum tomatoes I bought on sticker last week. Opened them inside a plastic bag to mitigate the chance of a jet of tomato juice hitting me in the eye, but I needn't have worried. Of course, if I had NOT used a plastic bag...

Then spent the rest of the morning carrying on taking down that mulberry. I have made good progress and removed another of the snapped branches. Although I now have a bit of a shiner after inadvertently smacking myself with the loppers.

Almost lunchtime.

And then postprandium, I plan on a bike ride. I have to pick up mum's prescription, so will head out that direction.

The local art shop has a framing service and they're selling offcuts as packages.

Always useful.

Thing is, it's for my archive, and I'm kind of OCD about getting it all to match...

( Be careful what you own up to)
Put another log on the fire
Cook me up some bacon and some beans.
And go out to the car and change the tyre.
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans.
Come on, baby, you can fill my pipe,
And then go fetch my slippers.
And boil me up another pot of tea.
Then put another log on the fire, babe,
And come and tell me why you're leaving me.

Well, I *am* single, so it doesn't apply to me.

I have just found what might be my favourite crisps. I don't know if they are new, but they are delish.

I love Walkers Worcestershire Sauce crisps, but they are quite 'rare'. I've just found some Seabrook's Lea and Perrins ones. Oh my, what a happy chap.

I have invented a breakfast food. I took 2 frozen pork sausage patties, microwaved them for a minute, then wrapped crescent roll pastry round about them, and put them in the air fryer, 4 minutes, then flip and cook for another 4 minutes

Went out for a break and stopped at a cafe on the greenway.

Got talking to a couple of cyclists there - one of whom had been SWMBO's patient in her specialist care ward that's in a hospital 15 miles away.

Gravity Aided you just reminded me that I like to make a breakfast sandwich from 2 blueberry toaster waffles & ice cream. our freezer is on the fritz & the new fridge is back-ordered. it's been 3? months w/o a freezer! ugh

but back to sausage! I found some (fully cooked) refrigerated sausage links & patties (I previously thought they were only found frozen)

That's weird, but I live in the Midwest, and we never see such things. I usually get Banquet frozen ones, but I have both a freezer on the fridge, and a deep-freeze.

I have the privilege of having a beagle on my lap. Mrs. GA is out having her hair done. Otherwise, the dog would be with her.

Does the beagle get a cut and blow dry at the same time?
