Hello,
I know what you mean - the sense of security from knowing that you can't lose your house no matter what happens is worth pursuing. I do like the sound of your meals - ours are very dodgy at the moment as we are emptying the freezer. Oh had a leftover portion of lasagne with leftover Singapore noodles. I had some slightly old cheese with slightly soft crackers. Good thing I was absolutely starving....Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -
Your meals always sound so good

Hi SSS, my mum made me laugh tonight. I've made baguette pizza but she wanted a tin of soup and egg on toast. However, then fancied the pizza as well :rotfl: Worse than a teenager
Hi SF, DD suggested tonight that we spend the year with no repeat meals. 'You've got enough books to cook something different every day for years' :rotfl::rotfl: I don't think I could cope with that as staples like chilli and cottage pie etc definitely need more than an annual airing.
Maybe when I've retired :T

Hi TC, I certainly do. I've come to bed for an early night, but I'll grab my book tomorrow and jot down some favourites

They really cheer up a salad in the winter I think
Typing this and listening to the rain hammering down on the roof
