with veggie sausages this could be a lovely meal yummers 

Well done on losing a stone, Pengy.

My middle son is getting married in August so I have been trying to lose weight too. I've lost 15 pounds but still have more to shift.

There ya go Pengy , there's one for you

I'm not that keen on aubergine although that's probably because I don't do much with it but I do like the deep fried one you get at Wagamama's with curry sauce over it 

That looked gorgeous.

all my weight seems to be on my tummy   I look like I'm preggers 

it did - I'm very impressed with his range of recipes he's shown us 

That doesn't sound very calorie free Pengy

errrrr no which is why I haven't had it for over a year   I usually end up with the miso soup which is virtually calorie free but not so exciting and washed down with a raw juice 

which reminds me I must get my juicer out and juice juice juice 

Do you think that sitting room at the back, is just for him?

I've got a big butt to match my fat stomach.

I'm not painting a pretty picture here.

I haven't noticed Yogi ...I will look next time

I know he has his own kitchen in the house and there's a separate one for his wife and the kids. Probably why that horrible extension is there.

You both notice I'm not saying anything ...I've given up on my rolls of fat!

I kid console myself that it is harder to lose weight as you get older - I'm sure I read that somewhere.

I slowly braised an oxtail, a couple of months ago - it was so tender and delicious.

yeah I reckon so - his den where he dreams up all his recipes

I used to love bacon but pork   always disliked it 

Very true Yogi ... I also take comfort from the fact that being too thin makes you look older

T'is a true fact. Ladies of a certain age have to choose between face or butt. When your face looks good, your butt's too big - and when your butt is the right size, your face looks scrawny.

Exactly Yogi ...so I've gone for the big butt

Snap.

that's what facelifts and collagen is for

Good tip for easy skimming.

I make veg stock like this (minus the chicken carcass of course) - tis the best - I put it into ice cube trays and then freeze it and use cubes as and when

I wish - can't bloomin' well afford it

I saw Gordon's book in Morrisons today, for £12.50. and I wish I'd picked it up. I don't think I can wait until Mr Yogi gets it for Christmas.

I've been known to use the odd Oxo cube too.
