  • Trying to get back to some semblance of organisation before school starts next week

    Monday: Chicken Casserole & jacket pots
    Tuesday: Beef Cobbler
    Wednesday: A mystery pasta dish
    Thursday: Pork chops and savoury rice (might pinch freakyogres asian ginger recipe above)
    Friday: Smoked Mackeral & cous cous

    OH did shop ; bit heavy on the meat. Serves me right for letting him loose without a list of course.
    Getting there...slowly! :D

    GC : must do better
    NSD: very rare

    No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.
