Hiya :wave:
Fully being a miserable toad today. Was gonna make a vegetable puff pastry tart but the courgettes were being difficult so I just swore at them for two minutes instead. Didn’t order them in time so the flowers I sent to my Nanna and stepmum haven’t arrived.
Also, after my daily cry I made this and it made me laugh

I don’t think the card i sent my mum has arrived either

#43

Was mum’s birthday earlier in the month. Posted the card (first class) 4 days before her birthday. It arrived 5 days after her birthday :rofl:

Posted her mother’s day card on Friday, it turned up yesterday. The post is broken

Last week i ordered some easter eggs and the following day my boyfriend took in a parcel and said “your chocolates have arrived”. I was like, that was quick! But then it emerged that it was something else, he didn’t know about the easter eggs, and he had only said that because he thought the parcel that did arrive looked like a chocolate box

My vegetable tart is in the oven and the main ingredients appear to be pesto and pure spite.

Tbf I think the vast majority of people are having to send stuff so the postal services might be overwhelmed?! I’m sure she understands x

Had this for years with some shoes I loved, then realised you could buy shoe stretchers, might be cheaper to get new slippers

I am genuinely missing the Sunday dinner thread (insert food emoji here) - I hope the owner of that particular tradition comes back soon.

I did some outside football training this afternoon. My legs are sore. I’ve done no exercise since December.

We ate steak sandwiches for tea - a big pile of chimichurri, roasted pepper and onions and griddled tomatoes. It was excellent.
