heston's pea & pancetta spaghetti

This weekend we've got much more relaxing plans, compared to last week. In fact it's so relaxed we all spend the morning sat in sleeping bags in the lounge playing "camping". For two hours.

We eventually heave ourselves out of the house and whilst Ana tidies, Milo and I go to Palewell Park to try some riding without stabilisers. He's not the new Greg Lemond, but he doesn't mind falling in the mud and looking at wormcasts, so it's not all bad.

One trip to the tip, a coffee with Jude, and a scoot around Waitrose later and the highlight of Milo's day finally arrives - eating the rabbit jelly Ana and him made yesterday. It's cool eh?


The mould is one my mum used to make jelly with for me and my brother, and I think it's a bit older than that - mum? I remember she used to make a pink strawberry mousse in it, with raisins for eyes, but just straight jelly works well enough for us and the mini-Barnes. Full of jelly and demanding a sleeping bag to go to bed with, Milo sleeps and we slump in front of the telly with another dose of Misfits, and another batch of Heston's double-aces spaghetti. It's. What. We. Do.



Food of the Milos
Breakfast: Camp nibbles and porridge;

  1. Love the jelly! I made mini-jellies for the girls last week, such a simple dessert but so loved.
