Weekly Flylady Thread 8 September 2025
Welcome to the weekly Flylady Thread. What is FLYLADY? Well, it's our version of the US flylady idea - but we work on the principle that housework is not fun, it's boring, can be time-consuming, is often thankless but, unfortunately, necessary.

Indian takeaway style biryani veg curry recipe
Does anyone have a recipe please? Love the one that comes with a biryani where assorted veg are chucked in. No spice or very little as far as I can detect. Love it. Would love an easy biryani recipe too if anyone has one they can recommend.

I have been looking at the grocery challenge thread and am loving all the recipes mentioned at the start. However, in trying to meal plan ahead, I was wondering what you all do for fish?
