Gin Operated

Another astoundingly quick and easy weeknight supper, this one, and while it may lack the sophistication of last night's salmon and lentils, it was seriously good. Ten minutes from start to finish, although I had already made the burgers and just defrosted...

I didn't take a picture of this one before eating it - a little out of blogging practice.
But a simple, delicious, diet friendly supper.
I baked two salmon fillets in a foil parcel with a slice of lemon, salt, pepper and a pat of butter.

Last winter for a while I posted a soup recipe every week. This winter, as soon as the cold winter started, I started making soup again. For a long while I got away with last year's recipes, but eventually I got bored and started again.
I like this soup because the smooth, earthy flavour of the celariac goes so well with the sharp freshness of the apples. It's tasty, filling, easy and healthy - next to no fat, and no Weightwatchers points....

A very special baby is due next month.
I've knitted for this baby before, but it needs a blanket too. At least one.
I enjoyed knitting this blanket - the lace keeps it interesting to knit, even though it's a big rectangle. The results were good - it hardly needed blocking and was exactly the size I was hoping for....
