Happy birthday Mrs. Sheepish!!!!!!

[Kerry Beal]

Lovely blog - I have very much enjoyed your sense of humour, the writing and the food.

Made the Teisen lap yesterday, big hit at home and at work today. Thank Mrs Sheepish for showing us that.

Welcome mutt on - hope you continue to post here on eG.

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Sheepish

There is so much more in you to share, sheepish. I hope to see more of your offerings in various egullet threads.

Thanks for a great blog!

Hello all! Mrs Sheepish here,

Thank you very much for all your kind birthday wishes.

Kerry, I'm glad your teisen lap was good, I was pleasantly surprised by how light it was. I'll definitely be making it again.

I think Sheepish will be uploading some images soon!

Right. Last blog pictures. Sunday. I have cooked nothing today. I've eaten quite a bit.

Breakfast. Pancakes. Mrs S cooks 'em up in a kitchen not quite fully restored from yesterday's culinary explosion.



Served with maple syrup and seasonal (last September) berries. I had butter with mine too.



Look at the contented smiles.



It's Mrs S's birthday today. I just prefer to cook a special dinner on a Saturday night. So I indulged her by staying out of her way, watching Wales beat Scotland in the rugby, while she prepared roast pork. Can't get much more British than a Sunday roast. The rather splendid apron was a birthday present from her sister.



This is my spice grinder. I have an attachment for my expensive Waring food processor that grinds spices. I think I've used it twice. This gets used nearly every day.



Pork rubbed with fennel seeds, salt and black pepper ready for the oven. At this stage the house had tilted sideways. I've no idea why the picture is like this and I've resized more photos this week than the rest of my life in total and you're not going to get a 90 degree rotate out of me too.



And the final photo of this blog. Roast pork. Roast potatoes. Roast carrots. Green beens. And a slosh of gravy. A satisfying end to the week.



Hope you've enjoyed it. Thank you for all the comments and questions. Thank you to my family for joining eGullet and making me look artificially popular. I will get that parfait right soon and post the evidence!

Ditto, and to your family for letting us intrude, esp. Mrs. Sheepish on your birthday. I don't know how you did all that cooking with frozen water pipes. Looking forward to more from Wales in the future!
