Cheese, Bread & Fruits

寒いです〜!予報通りとても寒くなり、今朝は霜が降りてしばらく消えませんでした。最高気温4度、最低気温マイナス2度、現在マイナス1度。家のセントラルヒーティングを全部オンにしていればいつもとても暖かいのですが、使っていないお部屋を温めるのはもったいないので使うお部屋を使う時間に温めているのですが、これだけ寒くなると食事の時以外使わないキッチンとダイニングがすごく寒くなりますし、わたしが昼間過ごすクラフトルームは床暖房だけでは18度以上上がらないみたいで、エアコンの暖房機能を使わないと指先が冷たくなります。今日出かけたときも、風がないのが幸いでしたがそれでもとても寒かったです。でも、良いお天気なのは嬉しい。お天気予報ではこの先十日ほどはずっと似たような気温で寒いみたいです。

It’s freezing coooold!  As forecast, it has gone very cold, it was frosty this morning and the frost didn’t disappear for a long time.  The highest temperature 4C, the lowest -2, it’s -1C at the moment.  If we have the central heating on all the time of course it’s nice and warm everywhere at home but it’s a waste to keep it on where we aren’t.  I spend most of my time in my craft room and my husband in his music room upstairs of my craft room, so the main part of our house isn’t used much other than the bedroom during the night, living room in the evening (and sometimes early evening).  The living room gets warm quickly with the gas fire, the bedroom seems to be warm enough.  However the kitchen and the dining room are the problem.  Usually the heating is put on a little before we start cooking lunch or dinner but it doesn’t get warm enough in a short time when it’s so cold.  My craft room also needs extra help from the airconditioning unit because the underfloor heating isn’t enough at the moment.  It was very cold outside but there wasn’t any wind and the sun was out.  Looking at the weather forecast, it’s going to be cold like today or colder for the next 10 days or so.

 

今日はお昼にしっかり食べたので、夜は軽くすませることにしました。チーズやフルーツ、今年の新しいオリーブオイルなどとパンという軽い食事。夫はダイニングルームで食べるつもりだったようですが寒過ぎて、わたしの提案で暖かいリビングルームで。

We had a big lunch so we had just a light meal with cheese, fruits, new season olive oil and bread.  My husband thought we would be having it in the dining room but it was too cold for me, so we had it in the living room, where it’s nice and warm.
