The simple life

It's week 2 of our building works at home and we are still in hiding at our cottage.  We are keeping things simple here - patchy internet connections have meant that we are not spending time at the screen.  Food is also simple - stir fry dishes, salads etc.  I made a quick & tasty soy and honey glazed salmon salad for lunch today. Yum!  What I miss though is making bread - I will make some wraps or roti tomorrow, just to feel like I'm doing some baking :-)  We had some shop-bought English muffins the other day and were horrified at the amount of sugar they contained (they shouldn't have any!).  Have you also noticed how much sugar is bring added to everything? I do like a sweet treat now and again but do we really need sugar in ham, bread etc?  I really don't think so!  Just keep it simple, I'd say!

I can't wait to get back to proper posting - please bear with me in the meantime.
