Dinner for one!

I felt like a really good dinner today, so I roasted a big chicken leg, made onion gravy, new potatoes, cauliflour, carrots and sprouts and had a proper roast dinner. There is enough of the gravy/vegetables left for another meal, so tomorrow I will have it with a lamb chop! I don't often make a full dinner unless I have company and I really enjoyed it - with a glass of wine/lemonade/fresh orange.

When we were first married, before vegetarian days, we lived in a village in Northumberland where the butcher used to come twice a week in a van.
We had a house, rented, with one electric point, a cold tap, a toilet across the road, and a range which some times worked and sometimes didn't.
You had to put the mince in straight away, pull the damper out and the heat from the fire was supposed to swirl round the outside of the oven and cook the mince. Sometimes it was cooked and sometimes it wasn't when Ken came home from work at 8 p.m.

Used to be able to buy mutton from Helen Browning online but can't now, which is a great shame as it was absolutely delicious, even more delicious than lamb, which is probably my favourite meat.

Yes, apparently goat meat is also called mutton in Asian food stores
