You can't keep a good blogger down!

Well, I'm not so sure about the "good" bit, perhaps it should have read "prolific" instead.

After a particularly uncomfortable bout of rotten old Shingles (don't ask, it's horrid and my particular bete noir), I think I might be back in the blogging seat again.  Hurrah!

I've such a lot to tell you about - sausages, burgers, chicken pie, some gorgeous wine, braised veal, rhubarb & ginger jam, the Cocoa Boutique chocolates, butter chicken curry, a new way of serving new potatoes, some fab gammon ham, an orange & lemon drizzle marble cake and a steak with broad bean salad meal that was just divine!

Good old hubby has been brilliant while I've been laid up, he's been doing all the cooking and hasn't complained about cabin fever once.

Steak & Broad Bean salad - so good!

There was at least a bit of a silver lining to this cloud, as it meant I got to watch nearly all of the Olympic 3-day Event (Dressage being my "thing" - and I worked in an Eventing Yard a long, looong time ago) and we've at least been sidetracked by all the Olympic coverage in general, which has been just outstanding.

So, hopefully, I'll be back to bend your ear about all those lovely things I mentioned above - and quite probably some more, as we go along!
