I am going to make red pepper and tomato soup (thinking about adding some sweet potato but not sure, any advice?)

And then i'm going to make a chicken pork and pistachio terrine

I am going to make soup too, to use up a few left over veg. So i'm going to make veg soup

Then for dinner tonight, a slow cooked whole chicken in parsley sauce

For your soup, you could add sweet potato, and will add a nice taste to it. Are you going to blend your soup? I was thinking of having my veg soup chunky instead for a change today.

I've just made chicken and rice soup. Perfect for taking to work in a thermos flask, means no waiting around for to be able to use the microwave.

If you haven't already made it I'd say skip the sweet potato, cooked peppers are sweet enough as it is.

I'm doing roast loin of pork with sage and lemon + roasted butternut squash, carrots and purple beans. Carrot cake for desert.

I blended the soup, it is very sweet as I roasted the veg before I put it with the stock, it tastes very nice!
Terrine has gone in the oven now too so can't wait for that one either.
Are you roasting your chicken?

For the 2008 Olympics, I'm going to make stir fry rice with sweet and sour sauce!

With a pudding that looks like a gold medal.

that'll hide any bad smell or taste, if there was any

I made lancashire hotpot tonight and I took my fingernail off with the potato peeler cheering for Christine Oona-whatsit when she won gold in her race. The finished product (nail free) was good though- well worth the pain!!

Earlier I topped puff pastry circles with garlicky tomato sauce, roasted sliced aubergenes and slivers of strong cheddar cheese, - turned out delicious.
