Nectarine in a salad?!!!!
My auntie puts apple ina salad URGH!!! lol x

 

[JanD]

LOL! I'd have said that once too. I used to hate any sort of fruit with savoury dishes, but I quite like it now ... it's only like the apricots or dates you might find in morroccan dishes or sultanas in curries. It was surprisingly nice x

 

[summergurl]

I don't mind the aprictos & sultanas etc in savory dishes. My mum even puts apple in the curry she makes but in a salad i just can't stand it! :giggle:

My Mum used to make orange sandwiches in the summer, sound gross, but they were actually really nice.

Peel the oranges, slice them as in a pineapple ring, then sprinkle sugar on them and put in a sandwich. LOL.

 

[summergurl]

Oh god that's as bad as banana sandwiches!!!

 

[JanD]

What's wrong with banana sandwiches??? I love banana on toast xx

(not sure about the oranges though ) xx

 

[summergurl]

I've never actually tried a banana sandwich or a banana on toast but even the thought and look of it puts me off!!! :giggle:

 

[kered]

I love banana sandwiches, especially when the nannas are quite ripe.

Not a good end to yesterday/start to today As well as the choccie things I had in work I went on to have 5 biscuits (2 choc covered), a piece if toast with clover and a small sainsbury's 'mars' bar in mum's. I also pinched a pkt of walkers cheese & onion took them home and had a crisp buttie for my breakfast .... !!!! .... ????
THEN I had 2 pots of banana custard - just to finish off!

Bed

Tea - baked salmon & salad with vlf salad cream

Slice ham

Work ... I have a craving for protein (!?) so I've brought a load of cooked chicken breast and 2 boiled eggs.

Is it a quiet night in work tonight then Jan?

Im just about to leave

 

[JanD]

It's always quiet .... Only 1 patient and all I do is hook him up to his machines when he goes to sleep and then keep an eye on them all night. They alarm if there's a problem though. Hope you have a good one xx

 

[summergurl]

So you've got plenty of time to do nothing much?!
Bet it gets a little boring at times.... Xx

 

[JanD]

Sometimes but not so much in the last few years, since I've had a lap top and could bring dvds & stuff. And since they've gone wireless & given me the code it's been easier ... God Bless the internet and the iplayers!! Mind you I used to do more writing and things like making dvds from photos, bits of video and put music to them & stuff which I haven't done since then. Lazy I guess because there are a list of projects I've never got around to doing .... Hmmmmm, must get my finger out!!! That would probably stop me thinking about the dreaded 'f' word so much too!!! xx
