@@pinkypeza5744 Morning Pinky. What a nice comment, thank you. Yep, I've been the only cook in both of my marriages ( so, since the mid 1970s ). Didn't know how to cook anything as I came straight from living with my parents to being a wife! Same with most of us I suspect! Glad you liked the video x
Loved the cooking video. Nice to do something different. I’m nearly 70 and just started using grated cheese🙈 now off for frozen onions. Quite agree, anything to cut down time standing cooking. The food all looks lovely x

Brave Linda, very brave to cook in front of a camera! Good for you, and yes it's special if you are making it yourself! Funny, husband and I were just discussing non stick pans prior to watching, and saying how it's possible to destroy any and all of them. I do, frequently. Really enjoyed your 'session'. You are a girl after my own heart. Where once I did absolutely everything from scratch, I use any shortcut I can these days. I learned a few years ago that I quite like the taste of the jars of Italian herbs and that's all I buy these days. They go into anything needing 'herbing' up. And what's available frozen has to be the freshest of all, doesn't it? A certain company is always telling us how it goes from field to bag in a couple of hours! Good point about filling your pies with cold filling. Never too old to learn and I'll do that in future to prevent 'soggy bottoms'. You are indeed worthier for doing your own béchamel for the lasagne, Linda.... you do make me laugh! Glad for your tips as it's one dish I manage to mess up really often. You're a natural for this. No nervousness and you chatted to us quite happily while cooking and what I especially love? Not one ounce of pretension in you. So yes, please do more, but only if you enjoy it too. It a 👍👍 from me!
What a kind and lovely message, Miss Merrily, thank you! The cold filling thing definitely worked for me, even with greaseproof in the bottom so give it a try. I'm so pleased you enjoyed the video x

Great job as always Linda I’d come over for dinner anytime I’d even bring the wine 🍷 😂. I see you like mustard a quick recipe for you cut up all your veggies chuck them in a roasting tin with some chicken breast spray with oil and lots of black pepper cook for 20 minutes or so then I chuck in cherry tomatoes and asparagus. Mix whole grain mustard, lemon juice and maple syrup together chuck that all over pop back in the oven easy but very tasty I do it with salmon as well. Anything for an easy life these days .xx
Hi Linda well for doing all that cooking, good job all looked delicious. I'm like you been cooking for years for the family, and any short cuts i can make the better, better still get the other half to cook occasionally.🥴
Yep,im all for cutting corners too,the easier the better 😊 i dont like leeks so ill put in bacon for chicken pie👍🏻i do like to try new things out on RUclips..yes linda do this again love it..well done 👍🏻❤️🤤
I don't use white sauce for my lasagne my current other half doesn't like it he's so fussy 😃 I sandwich my dried lasagne sheets together with soft cream cheese got that tip from my daughter 😁. Every now and then I batch cook when the mood takes me 😂. Your meals look lovely I'll be round for my tea any time 🤣🤣🤣🥰
It takes years of practice yo cook with no recipe so us ladies of a certain age are a wizz at this ...great vlog Linda im with you all the way make it as easy as possible & plenty of veggies in there too ..looked great all cooked ! Im sure it tasted good too ..have a good weekend x

Hi Linda, enjoyed this, good so see how other people cook!……..OMG I am with you on the fruit, really struggle, could eat salad and veg all day long!….and the dishwasher! What a waste of time, the amount of family I’ve seen argue over loading and unloading! I have never had one in 37 yrs of marriage 😂😂 that’s what the hubby is for! 😂😂❤xx

HI Linda really enjoyed your cooking skills a bit like me really and your sense of humour you make me laugh! keep up the good work and look forward to more cooking videos x
Linda, Well done you!! That frittata looked 🤤🤤…delicious ! Bung it in Gunga Din 😂😂I love the addition of the feta 😋😋I’m all for easy, quick cooking, I’m definitely not a lover of cooking 🫢, and although I’m vegetarian, well pescatarian to be truthful, that chicken and leek pie looked delicious 🤤I can smell it from here 🤣 The official measurement for mustard, I believe, is …dollop 🤣🤣 Do I get a Blue Peter badge for not skipping through your video ??🤷♀️🎖️
Hi. Just to help you with your cheese fix and cutting corners. When you do lasagne use a packet cheese sauce and add extra cheese with a bit of mustard. The pie looked very nice as well especially with the design on the top. I think you did very well on all these dishes and it’s nice to see someone being normal about cooking. Many people lead busy lives and don’t have 10 hours standing at an oven.
@@LauraMartini-gb3nl Hi Laura. I don't usually cook three things at once, I normally pace myself! I tend to make white sauces as it's not hard and at least you know what's in it. Thanks for the tip, though. Good to know. Thank you for watching x
Hi Linda That egg dish you made looks gorgeous and I will make one myself minus the cheese as am not keen on feta cheese . Maybe mozzarella. It’s strange you say you can’t make pastry my mother couldn’t either so I did it and she told me it’s the best pastry she had tasted. My secret was a third butter margarine and a small amount of lard as pastry is half fat to our as I remember. Her cakes were better than mine but it’s the flour grading that’s most important in cake making as I learned from chefs I cook my leeks in milk and water and leave them in the mixture until soft . My grandmother used Sir Gar butternut that is very expensive to buy. Hated it as a child as it was very salty. I used the milk and water from the leeks and made a white sauce with it but put that in at the end. I have made loads of lasagna I buy fresh pasta as I prefer it. The lighting was perfect . I put some chives in the white sauce for lasagna but yours will be good am sure All the best and have a nice weekend and will see you in the Next one xx
@@rhianevans7189 Hi Rhian, you sound like a very accomplished cook! I would normally use cheddar on the frittata, but was just using up some of the bits and pieces I had. I'm so glad you found the video of interest. Enjoy your weekend too x
@@valeriegarner3521 Hi Valerie. If I ever move home and I buy a dishwasher, I want to live next door to you and perhaps your husband will ill empty mine, too, after he's done yours!? 😁 x
Hubby makes about 4 veggie omelets a week that are identical to your frittata. You may have shown me how to have him make 5 or 6 per week while only dirtying a pan once!
Hi Linda, Wow! Well done you, they all looked delicious 😋 I hope you put your feet up for the rest of the day? 😁 At least you have meals made for at least three days... and maybe some left over, that pie maybe? Anyway, thank you for spending all that time in the kitchen, it's nice to see other people's take on different meal plans.... take care 😊
I think you're a good cook, you made all that without a recipe, which is very instinctive..... I won't see you in heaven cos i buy a jar of white sauce for lasagne - i do pimp it up with extra cheese and nutmeg though😆
Thank you once again for spending time with us, Linda. You are always a positive attitude adjustment for me 😅 Your family is so fortunate to have you as their matriarch. P.S. What is 'an allotment'?
@@brokenbutnotgivingup1520 Aw, that's kind. I don't really see myself as a matriarch, but I like the sound of that! An allotment is a patch of ground in a communal space, rented from the council by people who want to grow their own flowers and produce. Those people may either not have anywhere to grow them at home, or they want additional space. In England, there are long waiting lists to get one. Hope that makes sense? X
Your pie looks delicious 😋🥧 I do love a pie 😃🥧❤ I'm not a fan of lasagne but I'm sure it's excellent.👍 I agree with you about vet fees, so very expensive😦🤨🐾 Also agree about fruit, it is often disappointing; oranges that look lovely are usually all stringy and weirdly dry on the inside. 🍊 😮 For me strawberries are always the most disappointing though,🍓 they are always quite sour nowadays. My childhood memories are of strawberries being lovely and sweet, 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓what happened to them?🤔
Ha ha 😂😂 yes you are being a bit thick using normal lasagne sheets!! To save time i use an instant cheese sauce for my white sauce. PS you do NOT put puff pastry on the bottom o ly on the top! Shortcrust on the bottom if you must use a double pastry layer. Its prob better with just a topped pie with no bottom. Healthier!
Hi Linda. I meant to put puff pastry on the top and short crust on the bottom, but ordered two short crust pastry for some reason! The pie was really nice, though. Thanks for your feedback x
We have a full set of Scovilles. Nothing sticks - just do not use metal tools! OMG scoville handles in the oven???!! What temp did you cook at. We never ever do that Blue cross & others are often for those on benefits!

Every now and then I batch cook when the mood takes me 😂. Your meals look lovely I'll be round for my tea any time 🤣🤣🤣🥰
@@juliehale4627 I've not heard of that Julie!
I don't usually batch cook, this was just for the video. Too much like hard work! See you soon I hope x
It takes years of practice yo cook with no recipe so us ladies of a certain age are a wizz at this ...great vlog Linda im with you all the way make it as easy as possible & plenty of veggies in there too ..looked great all cooked ! Im sure it tasted good too ..have a good weekend x
@@beverleywolstenholme5131
I'm not sure about being a wizz at cooking, Beverley, but I don't think anyone has died of food poisoning.... Yet!!
Glad you enjoyed watching. I was a bit dubious about filming my kitchen antics in case I got criticised. But. At the end of the day. Who cares!! 🤣
Hi Linda, enjoyed this, good so see how other people cook!……..OMG I am with you on the fruit, really struggle, could eat salad and veg all day long!….and the dishwasher! What a waste of time, the amount of family I’ve seen argue over loading and unloading! I have never had one in 37 yrs of marriage 😂😂 that’s what the hubby is for! 😂😂❤xx

Loved reading this , Helen. We think alike! ( Apart from the husband helping with the dishes bit!). x

@@sandras274
Steady on Sandra, MORE cooking videos. I need a month to recover!!
Glad you liked the video x
@@LindaTee70 Ha Ha!
Linda, Well done you!! That frittata looked 🤤🤤…delicious ! Bung it in Gunga Din 😂😂I love the addition of the feta 😋😋I’m all for easy, quick cooking, I’m definitely not a lover of cooking 🫢, and although I’m vegetarian, well pescatarian to be truthful, that chicken and leek pie looked delicious
🤤I can smell it from here 🤣
The official measurement for mustard, I believe, is …dollop 🤣🤣
Do I get a Blue Peter badge for not skipping through your video ??🤷♀️🎖️
@@Susancb56
I think you deserve Olympic gold, Susan! Thanks so much for the lovely comment x
Hi. Just to help you with your cheese fix and cutting corners. When you do lasagne use a packet cheese sauce and add extra cheese with a bit of mustard. The pie looked very nice as well especially with the design on the top. I think you did very well on all these dishes and it’s nice to see someone being normal about cooking. Many people lead busy lives and don’t have 10 hours standing at an oven.
@@LauraMartini-gb3nl
Hi Laura. I don't usually cook three things at once, I normally pace myself! I tend to make white sauces as it's not hard and at least you know what's in it. Thanks for the tip, though. Good to know. Thank you for watching x
Hi Linda
That egg dish you made looks gorgeous and I will make one myself minus the cheese as am not keen on feta cheese . Maybe mozzarella. It’s strange you say you can’t make pastry my mother couldn’t either so I did it and she told me it’s the best pastry she had tasted. My secret was a third butter margarine and a small amount of lard as pastry is half fat to our as I remember. Her cakes were better than mine but it’s the flour grading that’s most important in cake making as I learned from chefs I cook my leeks in milk and water and leave them in the mixture until soft . My grandmother used Sir Gar butternut that is very expensive to buy. Hated it as a child as it was very salty. I used the milk and water from the leeks and made a white sauce with it but put that in at the end. I have made loads of lasagna I buy fresh pasta as I prefer it. The lighting was perfect . I put some chives in the white sauce for lasagna but yours will be good am sure
All the best and have a nice weekend and will see you in the
Next one xx
@@rhianevans7189
Hi Rhian, you sound like a very accomplished cook!
I would normally use cheddar on the frittata, but was just using up some of the bits and pieces I had.
I'm so glad you found the video of interest. Enjoy your weekend too x
I loved this video Linda. I agree your such a lovely person with a fab sense of
humour! Love you ❤ xx

Hi linda all your prepping your meals look lovely thankyou for your video great as always have a nice weekend take care x
@@hilaryhaynes2421
Hi Hilary and thanks, you have a good weekend too! Glad you liked the video x
Would not want to be without my dishwasher! I load it and my husband who is always up first in the morning empties it and puts it all away!!😅 magic.
@@valeriegarner3521
Hi Valerie.
If I ever move home and I buy a dishwasher, I want to live next door to you and perhaps your husband will ill empty mine, too, after he's done yours!? 😁 x
Hi Linda, love the banta,when you get older, you can get away with saying things just as they are. I thought your attitude towards cooking was fun.
@@yvonnet.7932
Aw, glad you liked the video, Yvonne x
Hubby makes about 4 veggie omelets a week that are identical to your frittata. You may have shown me how to have him make 5 or 6 per week while only dirtying a pan once!
@@mollyelston8379
You're welcome, Molly! 😁 x
Hi Linda,
Wow! Well done you, they all looked delicious 😋 I hope you put your feet up for the rest of the day? 😁 At least you have meals made for at least three days... and maybe some left over, that pie maybe? Anyway, thank you for spending all that time in the kitchen, it's nice to see other people's take on different meal plans.... take care 😊
@@maryphillips864
I appreciate that Mary! The pie will last forever. It was huge!! x
@@LindaTee70
🤣
frittata looks yummy - and really healthy recipe, i'll av a bash at that.
@@kathrynoxley826
It's dead easy to make Kathryn. Go for it! x
I think you're a good cook, you made all that without a recipe, which is very instinctive..... I won't see you in heaven cos i buy a jar of white sauce for lasagne - i do pimp it up with extra cheese and nutmeg though😆
@@kathrynoxley826
I'm not sure I'll see me in heaven either, but I try! Pimping up is good! x
Great video
No i can't cook😂😂
I can eat so glad the doggy a lot better
They are a worry ❤❤
@@emmajones5075
Thank you, she's back to her usual self x glad you like to eat... I do too🤭
Hi Linda , all looked delicious 👍x
@@juliewigglesworth3964
Thanks Julie! x
Thank you once again for spending time with us, Linda. You are always a positive attitude adjustment for me 😅 Your family is so fortunate to have you as their matriarch.
P.S. What is 'an allotment'?
@@brokenbutnotgivingup1520
Aw, that's kind. I don't really see myself as a matriarch, but I like the sound of that!
An allotment is a patch of ground in a communal space, rented from the council by people who want to grow their own flowers and produce.
Those people may either not have anywhere to grow them at home, or they want additional space. In England, there are long waiting lists to get one.
Hope that makes sense? X
@@LindaTee70 Thank you for replying so promptly! That is a wonderful idea - the allotment.
@brokenbutnotgivingup1520

I cant cook looking forward to watching ❤ all I do Is put things in the oven
Ooh …a woman after my own heart ♥️ 😂 xxx
@@ngoodwin101
Bless you Tash x
Your pie looks delicious 😋🥧
I do love a pie 😃🥧❤
I'm not a fan of lasagne but I'm sure it's excellent.👍
I agree with you about vet fees, so very expensive😦🤨🐾
Also agree about fruit, it is often disappointing; oranges that look lovely are usually all stringy and weirdly dry on the inside. 🍊 😮
For me strawberries are always the most disappointing though,🍓 they are always quite sour nowadays. My childhood memories are of strawberries being lovely and sweet, 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓what happened to them?🤔
@@KarenG.-qs7wc
It's weird about fruit, isn't it!? Glad I'm not the only one! Thank you for your comment x
Btw, I was consistently impressed with the Co-op strawbs this year. I agree with your comments about them x
linda that food looked delicious can i come to your house for tea lol
@@sharonlloyd6617
I think I get 10/10 for effort, maybe not on the result. Thanks Sharon! x
Ha ha 😂😂 yes you are being a bit thick using normal lasagne sheets!!
To save time i use an instant cheese sauce for my white sauce.
PS you do NOT put puff pastry on the bottom o ly on the top! Shortcrust on the bottom if you must use a double pastry layer. Its prob better with just a topped pie with no bottom. Healthier!
Hi Linda.
I meant to put puff pastry on the top and short crust on the bottom, but ordered two short crust pastry for some reason! The pie was really nice, though.
Thanks for your feedback x
We have a full set of Scovilles. Nothing sticks - just do not use metal tools! OMG scoville handles in the oven???!! What temp did you cook at. We never ever do that
Blue cross & others are often for those on benefits!
@@lindakirk698
Hi Linda. It was hot! The handles got very hot, but no damage. I used my metal balloon whisk in the saucepan, with no apparent damage. I have a (silicone?) whisk which is next to useless, do needs must!! Thanks for watching x
