Actually you get a win and a gold star for paying attention.
Off "home" on the bus.
I think it might have been raining again by the time I got back to Limey's.
But at least I didn't fall in the water.
For dinner that night I soaked the leftover lamb and some dried apricots in red wine.
I'd bought a mini bottle and can honestly hold my hand on my heart and say I used it all for cooking. Risky business, but it worked.
I can't actually remember what else I did to it. I expect it was some sort of stove-top stew, because that's my forte. Oh yes, I went for a quasi-Moroccan style adding onion, carrots, tomatoes and pretty much everything else I could find. Bulked out with a barley mix and served with warm crusty bread.
Limey noticed my preferred method of cooking and eating whilst I was there.
Cook in one big pan, eat from a bowl.
Had I been there longer I might have learned The Way of the Slow Cooker, but this time round they just got my usual.
Oh, in case you wonder why Limey was absent from my account, she was working.
Ditto tomorrow (Tuesday) in order to free up Wednesday for our trip to Machrie Moor.
