    jcr Iwill happily post my menu plans but I won't be able to do it until this evening I'm afraid as I have to go to see Mum in hospital in 15 minutes.

    I'll also post some more cheap and easy recipes that I've written down which aren't in my menu plan.

    I do alternate menus, I tend to use the same 4 weekly menu for about 4 months, then change them to take advantage of seasonal foods.
    Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

    We have a second freezer in the middle bedroom which is rarely used (it currently contains 2 snakes in a viv, and a cat with a broken leg in a cage - the room, that is, not the freezer!). It's really helped to have more freezer space for bulk cooking, and it was the only place we could put it.
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    Thanks jcr - I'd forgotten how inspirational black-saturn's thread was.
