I've really struggled to keep warm today we let the fire go out this morning so the chimney could be swept, it needs sweeping fortnightly.
Because the fire was out the boat got really cold, when the boat gets cold the table, kindle, in fact everything is cold to the touch. When the fire is re-lit it takes a long time to get the boat warmed through.
When I did manage to get warm I needed to take Beano out for a walk and got chilled through again as the wind is bitterly cold.
I cooked a roast dinner today, I used a chicken breast, Steve didn't enjoy it. Mind yup he's in a bad mood so probably wouldn't have enjoyed anything I cooked. I did roast veg, parsnip, carrot and brussels, which he didn't like but I did cabbage for him. I also made stuffing balls and Yorkshire pudding.
I defrosted two chicken breasts on Friday and made Chinese style chicken with noodles, Saturday I made piri piri chicken with rice, both these meals were made using one chicken breast, I used the second one today for the roast.
Scrimping and saving, ranting and raving. Past retirement age.

We keep battling on. So difficult Hester. xxx
Your meals sound delicious. We used to live in a caravan and it did get very cold if we let the stove go out but otherwise it was toasty warm, if fact sometimes too warm.
Your meals sound delicious and nourishing. I never used to feel the cold but we can’t use our motorhome in winter now as I can’t keep warm at night. Hope you have warmed up now.
