Girls

for some unknown reason, I was wide awake at 02:30 this morning. This wasn't a good time to start the day, so I tried to lie still and doze for the rest of the night.

The main event for the day was lunch. Kim was joining us (Jon had a prior engagement in Portsmouth), and Zoe and Ellie would also be coming. This was the family celebration for Diane's birthday a couple of days ago. I prepared roast pork with roast spuds, parsnips and various vegetables. More to the point I used some of the pork rind that I had got from the Farm Shop. After blanching it in boiling water and salting it, I used the air fryer. It was a great success and every morsel was consumed. I still have a huge amount of the pork rind nestling in the freezer for future meals.

It was lovely to have all my girls together for lunch. They are special times that make my heart soar and make me thankful for, and proud of my family.

They had left us by the time it was getting dark, so we settled down for a quiet evening.
