A room of my own

My lovely husband has made me a desk and bookshelves in the space outside our bedroom at the top of the stairs. The desktop sits just under the windowsill and I have a view of the garden just in front of my laptop. It’s a wonderful distraction from writing my magnum opus, especially as I have a decent pair of binoculars at hand to study the birds that wander up and down the pathways and fly into the trees.

If I lean forward I can see one set of twins sheltering against the barn wall

I saw this recipe on YouTube this morning

I gave it a try and we will taste it tonight

Put plenty of butter in the pan then add layers of thinly sliced potatoes and onions seasoned with salt and pepper. I added some slivers of fresh garlic snd some Cajun spice
Cook in a covered pan for ten minutes then cover with a plate and turn over and cook the other side in a covered pan for a further ten minutes.
