The Fluffster, making herself comfortable..

Lately I’ve found that I would sleep in every day, if I got the chance. So naturally when it comes to Sunday, when sleeping-in is actively encouraged, I’m awake and raring to go..

I’ve also remembered that the first episode of the new Doctor Who hits our screens tonight – that probably woke me up too. I’ve been a fan since my childhood (Jon Pertwee was my Doctor) and I remember how excited we all were when the programme returned years ago with Christopher Ecclestone – and Mr Saturday Night’s crush – Billie Piper. Once again this evening, we’ll be sitting as a family (Little Miss Eating-for-Ireland being home for the weekend and all..) watching the first Lady Doctor strut her stuff.. This calls for ‘snacks’ and something interesting to drink.. For some reason ‘Popcorn’ and ‘Hot Ports’ just popped into my head there 😉 Here’s my Popcorn recipe https://eatingforireland.com/recipe/microwave-popcorn-with-sweet-or-savoury-flavouring/

The Hot ports are here – https://eatingforireland.com/2017/11/28/hot-port-a-la-the-merrion-hotel/

Dinner is already decided – my famous ‘cheat’s’ Beef Stroganoff – https://eatingforireland.com/recipe/my-cheats-beef-stroganoff/

I’m putting this into the oven shortly; it will be cooked before the rest of the house gets up, and only needs re-heating come dinner time.

Then an easy dessert, which can preferably be eaten (with a dollop of cream) in front of the telly.. That big bag of Bramleys that I bought yesterday at St George’s market will be pressed into service. I’ve a notion for a traditional Apple tart – here’s my short-crust pastry recipe – https://eatingforireland.com/recipe/my-easy-short-crust-pastry/

That’s my recipe planning done for the day, so now for a tasty breakfast – smashed avocado on sourdough for me today – yum, my favourite!

Wait! I think I hear signs of life! It may not be too late to have a walk..

Have a great Sunday
