Sorry couldn't get any asparagus so turned the steak into a Beef Stroganoff, with a bit of rice.

A bit early in the season yet for asparagus - except for imported stuff from Peru.

Even wit the mild weather I would not expect our bed to produce anything for at least a month.

We eat amorphous freezer lumps too. I'm very bad at er, marking what goes into the freezer. Sometimes we have some real surprises. I'm still trying to find the spiced red cabbage that I know is there but I'm afraid of having to serve redcurrants or straws with bangers or pork.

Yes Mami's the guilty one, never lists or dates said lumps when freezing, can't number the surprises wev'e had.

Cold pork after a piece of roast pork last night.

I am pretty good at labelling nowadays as was getting fed up with gravy instead of soup, tomato sauce instead of fruit etc etc.
