Sprouts

Not the most exciting photo, reflecting not the most exciting day. 

I was woken up by the rain in the night, the first time that's happened for a long time. Luckily it had stopped by the time I got to the yard for my riding lesson but the school was a bit splashy. I had the wrong (short) boots on as well. Duh!

After cleaning myself (and the car) up I started cooking my Christmas dinner. No, not putting the sprouts on to boil, I might do that next week, but cooking and mashing the Swedes from the allotment ready for the freezer. Two tubs without dairy for No.1 Not Child, three with for us. That's one less job for Christmas Eve anyway. I also made some tomato sauce and stewed some apple ready for crumble.

Himself was a bit hungover tired after his day out yesterday so he's been snoozing through  catching up on some of the TV he recorded while we were away. He's cooking a chicken pie for tonight and tomorrow's dinner now.
