Meatballs a la Freya

Www. The adventures of Gryff.   Well as you all know, Freya is the matriarch of our family, and the proud mum of the Terrorists Asti and Lacy. She is also the Trolls most treasured dog, and as such can commit no wrong doing, can cook and run the house, can PLAY guard dog till the troll gets there and takes over, and is one of the best bed warmers that nature has ever created. After giving the matter some consideration, she gave the troll a shopping list and got him to hop off to one of the well known supermarkets because she was in the mood to cook. On the menu when we got home was..... Meatballs (on offer buy one get two free) with a hint of Black pudding (left from New Year) in a tomatoe cream sauce (again cream left over) with mixed herbs and seasoning.  First u put the meatballs chopped up in a saucepan with the cream , seasoning , some water and the mixed herbs and cook till done, or warmed up. You can add the pasta aswell and cook all together, or if u have some already in the fridge, it can be served layered as follows.....put a crunchy layer of kibble in the base of a bowl, then a layer of pasta, then a layer of chopped up meatballs in a runny sauce so it goes through all the layers topped off with grated carrot garnish. It was absolutely wonderful... Seconds thirds , just bring it on puppy. In all it cost about £8 but served twelve portions, so 70p a good healthy meal each. Perhaps this healthy food thing is going to be more fun than I thought.... Anyway the rest is in the freezer for another day, and tomorrow being Sunday, I know it's a nice long walk along the river ,followed by savoury porridge and a nice long lie down. Then IT'S SUNDAY DINNER..... Wonder what that will be? I know there's pork stock off the joint to be used.... The question is, what will be with it? Can't wait!  Oh and just to make you smile, the terrorists had a carrots party in the van the other night. A new net of carrots was purchased and left in the back of the van with the pups.Of course they couldn't wait, but her indoors face was a picture when she opened the doors. She got flattened by this wall of carrots as they poured out on top of her closely followed by half a dozen Berners with huge great smiles on their faces.... Keep smiling folks lol. Cool runnings Gryff
