Chookie, that pair of long socks that are imitation sheep wool lined sound like just the thing I will be needing whilst I am recuperating.  Can you recall where you got them from?

Readings in Lygon Street, Marina. Also bought a cloth bag for storing bread.

It sounds like wonderful shopping Chookie.

I keep buying cookbooks. I just enjoy reading them. However this one has lots of very easy, delicious recipes.

Cookie, wish you didn’t put that one up. Still I don’t feel so guilty buying cook books with recipes I will make as a main meal in a decent restaurant can easily cost the same as a cook book.

The 2 books I bought were, I’ll bring dessert by Benjamin Ebuehi.    And Winter Wellness by Rachel De Thample. The first one has lots of sweet cakes and biscuits. I’ve had to cut the sugar in 1/2 in those I’ve made. The second one uses healthy ingredients and is quite imaginative.

I’ve managed to keep away from the supermarket for a week.

I recently bought this food mixer and chopper https://www.en.cuisamix.com/products/mixix?fbclid=IwAR3UEYaeS7D0S3vMGanGdTua1_fW6vgJl9ARLiT6FyVRL-DGJAJydnwabDk_aem_AeEUf1oEFaFZD3k6W5KQ0X94TBEC3gBkL6k7b_PzkAzycLBauT_KipMe5EWbzszMubUZJdYj66OTdPGF1QSLoCZp&utm_campaign=23858054690810291&utm_content=23858054877710291&utm_id=23858054690810291&utm_medium=paid&utm_term=23858054830260291&variant=47236076798297 for my TMX. The first time I used it, to make pesto, I wasn't impressed and tossed it into the cupboard.  Then one day I was chopping garlic and onion and thought I would try it on that and it worked really well, so it has come out of the depths of my cupboard and onto my TMX where it should have been all the time!  Not expensive and when I got mine, it was two for one.

It looks like this post has shot out really wide on the page, sorry about that.
