Marmite on toasted homemade bread for Nic's breakfast, followed by cualiflower dahl and pickled carrots for lunch - all this interspersed around watching the Murray/Federer semi-final at the Australian Open on the BBC sports website in between meetings and calls! Meanwhile Steve settled for his usual Friday 'treat' of a bacon roll & coffee from Greggs to start the day then a cup of very chunky chicken soup for lunch.
The evening meal tonight is - obviously, given that it's 25th January - haggis, neeps and tatties. Steve likes a whisky sauce with this. The haggis was handmade by Charlotte of Charlotte's Butchery fame in Gosforth which Steve picked up on the way home along with some pork & leek sausages for tomorrow's breakfast and a piece of tri-tip beef for tomorrow night's dinner. The haggis decided it wanted to shed its natural stomach skin during the cooking process but this did not detract from the beautiful peppery taste and the extremely meaty texture. The haggis was followed by Cranachan - a traditional Scottish dessert.
