yesterday, I had two deliveries…

the first was from La Belle Baguette and included croissants, butter tarts and sourdough bread… I was hoping for scones, but they aren’t baking those just now…

I am so happy that they are doing deliveries on Fridays and Saturdays now that we have been shut down again… I shared the croissants and enjoyed my chocolate one… it was delicious, as always…

I had other things planned for dinner, but decided on a grilled cheese with onion and bacon… yum… the rest of that loaf will be cut up for stuffing and popped into the freezer…

the butter tarts were put into the freezer, either as a treat for me, or something to have should anyone drop anything off and I want to send something home with them…

a bit later in the day, my groceries from Save-On-Foods arrived… these days it takes four or five days for delivery and more items are out of stock… but, nearly everything gets here…

I am blessed to have these options available… and happy to do a bit of local purchasing where I can…

I picked up a baguette the other day and here’s how I used it…

made scrambled eggs that I put on top of it… then I had Brie and pistachio toast and finished with some French toast…

happy to have used all of it up as bread is not high on the list of things I should eat… the size of the baguette was perfect…

had some excellent meals yesterday…

started with an almond croissant and cheese for breakfast… lunch was a delicious chicken, stuffing and cranberry jelly sandwich on La Belle Baguette sourdough bread… ended the day with ham and scalloped potatoes that a dear friend dropped off…

and I made chicken broth from the chicken carcass…

there is still a great variety of leftovers and ready-to-eat items in the fridge;-)…

all in all I think I’ve been making some reasonable choices regarding what goes into my body as I recover from my knee issue;-)…

I am so grateful that we have SkipTheDishes as I haven’t been making many meals over the last week…

I’ve ordered a few times recently… when I do, I always make sure to order enough for a few meals…

last night I ordered from Pho Hoang, a favourite… I ended up with enough for four meals…

I did make a grilled cheese sandwich the other day with some marble rye bread a friend brought from La Belle Baguette…

have really appreciated not having to prepare meals, but planning to actually cook my dinner tomorrow;-)…

yesterday turned out to be quite a fun day…

instead of laying on my bed and watching tv all day I went out with a few friends…

on our way to St. Norbert Farmers’ Market we stopped at La Belle Baguette for some bread…

I haven’t been to the Market for years… it has certainly grown and improved… there are more makers and the main covered building is wonderful… while we were there it poured for about five minutes, and we were under the canopy the whole time…

after an entertaining time there, we went out for lunch… the sky was a bit foreboding and all of a sudden it poured… for another five minutes… by the time we got to the restaurant it had stopped;-)…

great fun… finished the last bits of that lunch for tonight’s supper…

what a difficult day… i never know when one of these days will come along…

I’m a bit worn out from recent events so that may have exacerbated the feelings…

anyway, I blubbered throughout the morning at the office… my colleagues were all so kind…

I left after lunch and went to The Stoneware Gallery and found the cutest heart shaped bowls…

picked up bannock and rye bread from La Belle Baguette, which made me happy because they’ve been out of the bannock every time I’d stopped by previously…

filled up the car and got home in time to have a lovely afternoon nap…

looking forward to my first Friday off in many weeks…

started my day at La Belle Baguette to pick up some bread for lunch… found a few lemon tarts and a couple of chocolate bars to go along with it…

went nicely with the zucchini basil soup at lunch…

snow… not exactly how I wanted to arrive home at the end of the day although they’ve been threatening it for a few days, lol… you will notice that I gave in and actually had socks on;-)…

ended the day with a large bowl of Thai shrimp soup… lovely as all I had to do was warm it up…

had some delicious eats today…

picked up a loaf of bread and some croissants at La Belle Baguette on my way into the office…

the car smelled amazing all the way downtown and the croissants were a hit with my colleagues…

at lunch I made a tomato sandwich, and a cucumber one as well, with the fresh bread and a ripe tomato from a colleague’s parents’ farm… used basil instead of lettuce… oh my, it tasted wonderful…

for my supper I finished off the shrimp from last night and the last of the mango slices I picked up the other day…

yummy day…

started my day with this lovely shot in the living room… these flowers have been blooming since February 5th when I picked them up…

trimmed them down and tossed a few out but they still look fabulous…

then it was off to La Belle Baguette where I collected two types of bread for today’s Souper Thursday… chose a loaf of French and a Rye Sourdough… and finally three different tarts to share… yum…

this bakery is way too close to home, lol… in the summer I would walk over on Saturday or Sunday to pick up a treat…

on my way home I stopped in and got a hair cut… great to have it trimmed up… still has lots of purple in it…

flowers, tasty treats and fresh hair… pretty good day…
