Hubs is having a crack at his first (lamb & butternut squash) tagine - made in his very own...tagine!  (purchased in Marrakech)  :)

I think it's going to be simple and fast tonight since we're going out trick or treating... fish sticks (fingers), cooked veg, and tater tots. :P

I have some odds and sods from Marks & Spencer Simply Food to eat on the overnight train back up home to the North Pole (if only the train were as cool as the Polar Express!!!)

It was really nice, with lamb, butternut squash, carrots, onions, prunes, sesame seeds, etc.  Lovely, sticky & delicious - just like a tagine should be!  :D

Probably spag bol if I don't run out of steam. Otherwise, it may be canned soup and crusty bread.

Leftover chicken pot pie.

Pasta with olive oil, garlic, and crushed red peppers. Too tired and not feeling well. Wanted comfort food.

Yum, now I want that. My Papa (grandfather) used to make that for me as a child... It's so simple, yet I haven't had it in ages. Maybe tomorrow.

Got home to find my lamb steaks growing fuzz.  >:( Just bought them Saturday - so irritating... So DH took over dinner for me. We're having pie (veggie for me, steak and mushroom for him), steamed potatoes, and minty peas.
Finally living with my Husband in London after 6 1/2 years together but apart... and loving my life!

Indeed. Just perfect and tastes fantastic especially when too tired :)

We're having a radicchio & mozzarella (vegetarian) pasta bake (recipe from our veg box people).  :)

My kind of food!

I'm doing my mung bean curry--haven't done it in a while. 

I wanted to make aduki bean and butternut squash stew (like my old work used to do), but that will have to wait until Thursday as I need to get aduki beans at the health food store (Morrisons didn't have them).
