    It's half term this week so all 4 children are at home. The baking will probably be done every other day or so and they all like making things themselves.

    Happy Cooking!

    Monday - spag bol for OH, chick pea and veg curry (HM) with rice for me
    Tuesday - OH playing footy so no big tea, curry leftovers with naan for me as am getting hair done after work
    Wednesday - OH out (champions league final), fishfingers, beans and jacket spud to start using up freezer bits for me
    Thursday - burgers and HM wedges for OH, quorn burgers for me
    Friday - quorn sausages and something for me, OH has big lunch in work so just something on toast for him
