The Fife Farmers Market is on in Dunfermline on Saturday. My shopping list includes duck eggs from Kilduncan's, sausages and chorizo from Puddledub, veg from Bellfield and maybe a cheeky ice cream from Nelson's if they're there!
Then, after that, we are off to Blacketyside farm shop in Leven to pick up some Foodles mixes so I can try them out before writing a review of them. Yum! What a tough job... I've also been told that their café is nice so we'll probably have lunch there. Then it's off to Burntisland for the Fife Diet Christmas fayre which includes making gingerbread and festive wreaths etc. Really looking forward to that, and it's free!
Then back home, to make a bolognese sauce and possibly to collapse on the sofa and order a chinese for tea!! Sunday is usually a busy day for us but this week, as well as church/Sunday school, there's nativity play rehearsals too. Then swimming lesson at 12.30pm and home to get the house ready for the annual Festive Lasagne!
Every December, although snow buggered it up last year, my lovely friends, Fi, Karen and Kirsty, come over for a lasagne dinner. We used to exchange presents but these days Alister's the only person who receives presents, it's just too expensive for us all to give to everyone else. We have the Blair Family Recipe Lasagne, hence making bolognese sauce on Saturday night, garlic bread, salad, wine, fizz and dessert. It's one of the very few times in the year that we all get together, no questions asked - Festive Lasagne is compulsory in our calendars!
So, a busy weekend ahead! After that, next week I really MUST get my Christmas shopping started/finished. Not done a thing so far. Oops.
Hope you are all staying safe. We've been hit by a terrible storm today which has been a bit scary but seems to be passing now and moving on. Tiles flew off houses in our street, windows blew in at one of the high schools and at someone's house locally, awful! Stay inside, keep safe and warm and eat something lovely!
