Today hubby and I went out into the rose garden to continue pruning.
It was much easier with a second pair of hands
It was getting towards lunch so I got out a small container of what I thought was spaghetti sauce
I defrosted it and it was chicken with sauce and veggies.
So I boiled up some rice and made a kinda cheats risotto
But as usual I cooked too much rice
What to do? I could of left it in the fridge to make fried rice tomorrow but as hubby was so busy outside
I wanted to make him a treat
He loves rice pudding.
I had it so much as a child I haven’t made any for years.
So I looked up the recipe and off I went
We have both had a bowl after our lunch and this is still left
There is enough of the risotto for hubby’s dinner and he’ll be able to have rice pudding for afterwards
As well as tomorrow
The rose garden is slowly coming on
It’s looking much nicer.
Only three rose bushes to go. I think?
I planted one little piece of pigs face two years ago and
It took off
It covered that wishing well and almost killed my rose bush
I tried to start ripping it out but it was really stubborn so hubby took over
He will get rid of the pile and he’s got some more mulch to add
I might go back out tomorrow and see if I can finish the pruning
It’s annoying how I can’t just do it all in one go anymore. But it’s just not
Worth the pain if I try
The sun is shining at least so it was lovely just being outside
That must have been a lot of rice? Made my huMum smile, she makes normal recipe sized meals and then eats them for 4 days. What is 'pigs face'?
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to pasta or rice I just can’t get it right lol
DeleteDoesn’t matter it will all get eaten
Pigs face is a succulent I’m not sure what their horticulture name is but seriously
It’s bullet proof
Lovely flower
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
