After going to 3 Toby 's in the past week...  Monday: https:// www.tobycarvery.co.uk /restaurants/midlands/ quintonbirmingham #/ Wednesday:   https:// www.tobycarvery.co.uk /restaurants/wales/ thecockleshellswansea #/ Friday:   https:// www.tobycarvery.co.uk /restaurants/wales/ whitchurchcardiff #/   I decided to try to recreate something.... Just put together a vegetable bake. Part boiled some sliced potatoes and carrots, then into a creamy mushroom sauce added grated garlic and English mustard, shook it up.  Layered up the carrots and potatoes and put some of the sauce, put in a small tin of sweetcorn, more sauce, then the rest of the carrots and potatoes and the rest of the sauce. It's in the oven ready to bake later  It would go well with smoked haddock, smoked cod or the cheaper smoked white fish  Oh yes, Saturday Kitchen is on BBC One at 10am on Saturday! Photo will be here later! What dish have you tried to recreate from a restaurant? 

  Oh damn, fibro flare up, can hear the pain in my head, painful tingle all over... welcome to the new month 😓 Well, 1 st of the month, and after being woken up in the early hours, I got some cleaning bits done! Then I was looking in the hall cupboard for a trowel which I thought I had, as was going to go outside and take out dead growth from my tubs, and came over sick and seemed to have made my pain levels rise again.... damn it! I had such good intentions for this afternoon.   2 nd day of the month, its update time! Eyes: got more laser zapping tomorrow on my good eye to keep it good, will chase my bad eye appointment at the same time! Health: feeling better today than yesterday, I didn't really pace myself yesterday, as soon as I felt better, I threw myself into doing things, will I ever learn? Friday 3rd Feb: at the diabetic eye clinic for more laser zapping on my right eye, the good one to keep it good, but also had a scan of my left eye. It seems some...
