Fam,s over and it aint finished yet.......
« on: July 15, 2018, 07:49:08 »
With Fam here over the weekend and me sitting in the corner licking my wounds after being Horsefly bitten in the Greenhouse,amazing how such an insignificant little begger can have you swat it away after it nibbles you then 24 hours later the bite goes bad and my whole arm around my right elbow has inflamed up..im now in Bournemouth AE being told as your a Type 2 Dia and are feeling unwell you may go into sepsis.....mind you felt crap.....did then...still do now...but chin up...scoff some more antibiotics they let me on me way....home ....don't feel like doing much so .. in the kitchen to make a scooped out veggie boat with some mixed veggies and a olive oil dressing.......nice and cool in the sun.








then we all had  Griddled Chicken Salad.



then a summer fruit salad kept the troops happy........

Gazza, you are quite amazing!  Can hardly believe you felt like making all that beautiful effort after your A&E visit.  I suffer from horsefly bites in the same way, and I havent the excuse of diabetes.  Hope you have made a proper recovery .

Food looks wonderful, as always gazza. Nasty things horse fly bites, so hope the antibiotics keep you safe. Take care.

The horsefly bite sounds awful, I have enough with wasps ants and chiggers. Taken to wearing wellies and overalls all the time on the plot as otherwise I end up with so many.
Presumably Fams over is family staying  :glasses9:
Hope you are on the mend.
