Dinner time

I had a rather rude awakening at just after five o'clock this morning when the Carbon Monoxide alarm went off downstairs. Something to do with the way I'd banked up the stove before I went to bed but at least it's good to know it not only works but is loud enough to wake me. However, there was no way I was going to get back to sleep at that time as I'm an early riser anyway, so by this afternoon I was feeling rather tired and had a happy hour flat out on the sofa watching an old 'High Chaparral'.

Short of a Blip again so as I'm about to start cooking I used these little beauties which, along with some bacon and caramelised apples, are going to end up in a warm salad.
