What busy days folks.
I had curried chicken for my tea with rice, now ,a query.
The chicken was frozen but cooked,I’d frozen in portions the meat from half a chicken some weeks ago .
There was enough curry and some to spare.
Query, will it be safe to reheat the curry made today from cooked frozen chicken,to have with a jacket potato?
It wil have been reheated twice.
Or will it not be  safe?
Thanks in advance ?
Viktoria.

I was considering going out just before dawn but slept badly so got up at my usual time.

Took a longer than normal exercise walk taking me off the normal dog walking circuit. Saw my second bluebell of the year, took a photo to post on Twitter. The sky was perfectly clear which would never normally happen, there were always several contrails visible in former days.

Scrambled eggs for lunch, followed by ordering beer and a veg box for Easter. Afternoon dozing in the sun with a copy of P G Wodehouse.

It will be ok.   Googled it for you and this is what I got 
How many times can you re-heat chicken?

Lydia Buchtmann from the Food Safety Information Council told SBS.com that you can actually re-heat chicken as much as you want.

The important thing is that it should be piping hot all the way through.

23rd September 2019 article, so recent.   I would use it again anyway.

Beautiful day today, such a joy to open the curtains and see the garden looking at its best with all the spring flowers out....

Sunday.... day of rest reading the paper... very thin in parts and main paper virtually every page about covid19 ... bad enough watching on tv but reading it too was quite enough
,
Spent time pottering in garden and enjoying soaking up the sunshine, lunch in the conservatory then phone call with friends from Somerset swapping stories.

Had a Zoom with daughter and grandsons who were trying to make all their lego kits up! We had lovely chat with our daughter as she wasn't having to rush around as they normally do. Suggested we tried a Zoom with the boys during the week to help them out... read to them, play a game or something!

Yet another day of motor bikes screaming up and down the main road... just like a normal w/e... you can't tell me that's exercise in your locality!

Had our second BBQ of the year... I love the summer as it means OH does all the cooking, I just have to come up with the rest!

Listened to the Queen on tv....
Sorry to hear Boris is in hospital, thought he'd been looking pretty grim each time he's been shown recently...
Another uneventful day has passed...
Up early tomorrow as have to face the shops....

Night all, take care and stay safe and healthy

Monday 6 th April.
My mother’s Birthday.
She would have been 134!
Born 1896.
I have no flowers for by her photograph , some flowering currant in the garden,and a bush with curving sprays and a myriad of tiny white flowers .
Some heather,so they will have to do.
Impressed by  The Queen’s  message , hope Prince  Charles continues to keep well.
A gorgeous day ,azure skies and brilliant sunshine .

Hope the idiots flouting the rules do not spoil it for all of us,.
Cases of domestic abuse are escalating ,according to the News programme on this morning.

Concerned about the person with whom I lived as a child in Shropshire .
She is the daughter of the couple who took me in when relatives ,through illness ,were unable to carry on caring for me .
She is 92, has severe Asthma, and has carers  to help her bathe etc .
She was big sister and mother combined , and enriched my childhood so much.
I will phone her today ,have to watch the time so I don’t phone when carers are there.

Hope everyone is alright , kind regards to you all .
Love reading all your posts.
Viktoria.
