Still snowing

There was a thaw yesterday afternoon and then it started snowing again late, we keep getting flurries and its apparently -5 in the wind. Glad I did a shop last week, enough to keep us going for a few days. Flasks filled again in case we get a power cut. The issue of the stove has come up again.......DB suggested that we get a full gas stove instead of a dual fuel one. The same size as our present stove so we do not get the issue of the flames and the bottom of the cupboards.

Chiropodist has been so we both have tidy feet again. DB is still miserable with his back, its getting a bit wearing now. If its no better tomorrow I will ring the Dr. I have had enough.

Yesterday my computer did an update and the software I use to forecast spending lost its password, I just cannot find it anywhere, have tried all the usual passwords we use. Its a real pain, I used it to forecast what we were spending and the state of the bank account and savings account........there is nothing I have found which does the same thing, so not a happy bunny.

Set to straight after breakfast and did a kilo of mince in the Ninja, added onion, swede, carrots, tomato's mixed herbs, red wine, ground pepper and stock cubes. It has made enough for tonight with veg and dough balls and 4 x 2 serving containers to go in the freezer. I just have to find a way of marking them. I used to use sticky labels, but found they unstuck themselves, so it was a bit of a guessing game.

No quilting done I need to spend at least an hour this afternoon in the sewing room. I really want to get the quilt finished for Niblets birthday, but know if I rush it I will make a mess of it and have to undo it.

So tonights supper is mince, dough balls, cabbage and calabrese, lemon tart for dessert.
