Evening everyone
TIP -for anyone making a pasta bake... stick the dried pasta in a pan, pour over boiling water and stick the lid on but DON'T switch the ring on... by the time the sauce is made the pasta should be cooked -saving on gas/electricity - If you are going to wang it in the oven/remoska -the pasta should have heated through nicely by the time you are ready to eat it :T-6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.50 -
Just popping on to say hi, and a belated happy christmas. We had a lovely time, and are fairly well fed!
Did the last shop of this months money today, a few bits and bobs, some whoopsied mince in Tesco and [strike]some[/strike] lots of veg reduced to 10p in the Coop .
Freezer is full and we will hopefully not need any huge shops next month, although of course there are always things like milk, cat food, etc that always seem to run out!
Looking forward to starying the new year wih a nice new budget and see you all in the Jan GC thread!
