I am still trying to get ahead with meal preparation since we returned from holidays.  Tonight we had pumpkin soup and grilled cheese on Turkish bread for dinner.  The soup was from the freezer which required very little preparation so I had time to do some other things.  The refried beans are cooking in the slow-cooker overnight and I squeezed a big basketful of lemons.  I made about 1.7 litres of lemon cordial and another 1.2 litres of lemon juice to go in the freezer for future use.

Izz had a grommet put in her ear today.  I spoke to Belle this evening and all has gone well.  We will see them all tomorrow evening as The Duke and I are babysitting for a couple of hours as Belle has an appointment.
