Blasted well got lost, again!

Dear reader,

Had a busy cooking day yesterday. I realised I use an onion in nearly every meal. Curry, faggots, stir fry. I buy a big sack from Lidl every month which is much cheaper than buying a few here and there.
Yesterday I peeled 6, which was all I could manage at 0830 in the morning. Onion hands first thing is just not a good smell. I put them thought the food processor and after using some for faggots and some for shepherds pies I decided to freeze the rest.
I wanted the right amount for each meal not just a big block so made little onion muffins in my silicone muffin tray which I then froze to have the right amount for cooking.

After my cook fest I felt like a bit of fresh air an excersize so me and Big Man took the fat dog at the end of the road out to Wycombe Hill. It's a lovely National Trust village with a huge hill that goes up to Hellfire caves which were the meeting place for Francis Dashwood and the Hell fire club.
I think there were some notorious parties there.
Have a look here http://www.hellfirecaves.co.uk/


Up a bit higher is a lovely church


And a mausoleum


We went off through the wood which are full of deer and wildlife with the Red Kites circling overhead. I took charge of the route which is not my strong point and was certain it was right. Sadly 3 hours later I admitted defeat and we got back to the car. Still, the little dog had a fab time.
Do go here if you get a chance it's a good day out and our walk was free!

Are there any good walks near you? We may pop by one day.

  2. Drive to Spade Oak Pub near Little Marlow. Park the car (free) and walk up the Thames path to Marlow or down the Thames path to Bourne End & Cookham. The dog will just love the river! :)
