Visit t Mr M last night £48.05. DH didn't get every thing off the list as it was huge. He'll go again fri or sat. I have done a 4 week menu plan and have really tried to shake up our eating habits but I fear this is going to up the cost. I do have loads in the freezer so I shouldn't really need to buy too much. But I want to try to eat fish twice a week and it is so expensive. I am making fish korma for tea and the price of the fish was shocking. I am sure everyone will complain that they haven't got enough either. My DS1 will eat as much fish/meat as you let him. If you hear screams tonight it will be because my fussy eater doesn't want to try dhal just wants some more fish!!! I also had a talk with his teacher yesterday as he doesn't eat at school. Just brings his packed lunch home and eats it when he gets in. Which doesn't sound toooo bad but he is very stroppy and shouts a lot when we pick him up for school which I think is because he is hungry. It must be affecting his concentration in the afternoon.

Anyhow I'm off to make some mushroom soup for lunch too!

A NSD for me today - stuck indoors waiting for DR delivery, at least I've been able to catch up with the Housework.:o

Will need to go Shopping tomorrow, my 2 DD's are cooking a 3 course meal for me for Mother's Day and have given me a list of ingredients I need to buy. So much better than going out for a Meal, I always feel like the staff are rushing you to get the next lot in.

Dinner tonight HM Macaroni cheese, going to top it with sliced tomatoes and finish it in the oven.:D
