Weeks 46 & 47 – I don’t like life without a kitchen

This week, the cats have mainly been decorating us with their dusty paws:

While we have been eating ready meals …

… and crumpets for dinner:

But by the end of week one the kitchen is … progressing!

This weekend we treated ourselves to some meals out, including breakfast at a lovely local cafe:

And dinner courtesy of Mum and her partner in their local pub – check out Andrew’s mixed grill burger!

Sunday lunch today at our local was delicious …

Especially my pudding of profiteroles with salted caramel ice cream:

We’re doing our best to keep on top of the dust, in preparation of our second week with no kitchen. Not much point in planning our meals, but I did receive a beautiful hamper of goodies from Grey’s Fine Foods and the Spanish delicacies in here will, I am sure, make life a little bit more pleasant this week.

Otherwise, I have a couple of mystery stews in the freezer which should be ideal to microwave for a meal or two this week, and I am looking forward to dinner with my friend Emma later in the week (obviously I can’t wait to see her, but also I can’t wait to escape from the dust!).

Bloody dust …
