I've just had sprouts again with my evening meal....they really are an underrated vegetable:T

Tilly - do you like the way I manage to keep your diary completely away from mortgage focus. I think we might manage another page or so discussing sprouts before you eventually get it back on track:D

More sprout discussion

Ours were done with bacon & chestnuts and still were yuck

Hope that you and your family had a good Christmas and have fun at the Panto :rudolf:.

Mine were bubble n squeaked with pancetta - served with brown sauce and rose wine :T. Nom nom nom, off to pick the crust off the pan .

I'm rubbish at getting timings correct when cooking

So I'm having the rose (White Zindanfel) now:j

I cheated on sprouts this year and got a pack of mixed carrots, broccoli and sprouts. That way there are enough sprouts for me to have a few, and it doesn't matter that nobody else likes them.

OMG The trinity of evilness and don't even mention cauliflower

How are you Lois, you have been missing in action

Another sprout lover here - but only with bacon and chestnuts!

Like the idea of a January fiscal fast Tilly - don't think I could make it to the end of the year without another full shop!

An afternoon of Pantomime, an evening of cold ham, beef, Nigella turkey mmmmm and I pop back for a quick catch up and my diary has become the sprouts addict thread :rotfl:

I have no sprouts left for bubble and squeaky:(

Fantastic day x x x

Evening Polkadot, I won't be going food shopping until last Saturday in January - I really won't include fresh fruit and milk though, that will have to be small cash purchases. Shop and Sc@n won't be too happy but I will scan the milk receipt each week. I wonder how possible this is, I love a challenge.

Lois, now your talking, cauli and Brussels, my favourites :)

Radish, can you stack the Zinfandel empties neatly - the Tilly household have managed to finish a bottle of Baileys - may have to liberally pop our empties into the neighbours recycling boxes :T

Night, Tilly x x

Morning Tilly, glad you enjoyed the panto. I usually try and do a no spend january so will join you if you don't mind
