Well, that's the potatoes parboiled and left to cool before slicing them. I'd rather not burn my fingers if I can help it.

Err... well, b*gger. A trip out tomorrow night to buy some.

Thanks @mybike for the reminder otherwise it'd come to Wednesday when I need to wrap them and I'd have been scratching my head.

A lot of wrapping paper can't be recycled. I use brown paper, and customize it with coloured inks and / or interesting ribbon.

Anyways, it's almost time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

Bl**dy German carp engineering ! . Our AGE freezer seem to be Kaput ! The Paltry Geist seems to be caused by ice build up which when it expands forces the door open ! . It won't with a padlock and chain round it ! We defrosted it this morning , it has an automatic defrost function which doesn't seem to be working . The best place for this freezer would be the Arctic, it would replenish any ice lost to global warming .

ever try celery seed for breakfast potatoes? an ex's father taught me how to make breakfast potatoes. par boil, slice, cut slices into 1/4s, fry in old iron skillet w/ a sprinkling of celery seed. he also taught me how to chop firewood & stack coals in a grill. I miss him

I could be wrong, I usually am, but isn't the test for recyclable wrapping paper whether it's rippable, or not?

I have used silver baking foil for MrsC before now.... including Christmas presents!
It`s what`s inside that counts, and as Mrs LGC chose the gifts how can she complain 😄

The only time I've used baking foil this year was to grill a kipper.*

My fit band tells me I've walked 23,000 steps today. This is well above my pied grade.

My nephew hasn't bothered to acknowledge the card and money I sent him for his 16th birthday. Ungrateful little shoot.

Send him an invoice for his 17th

Ah, lovely supper of butternut squash, red lentil and roasted garlic soup, followed by the garlicky, oniony, bacony, cheesy, creamy, potatoy goodness that is Tartiflette
