    Jumblejack - OMG that bread looks so nice, will defo be trying them.

    Cheers:D

    I must admit, it is my favourite soup bread.

    The smell had the youngest flying down the stairs shouting, "Mmmmm, what's for tea."

    :D

    I don't have any fresh herbs - I suppose I could try using dried?

    Absolutely. I regularly use dried. The Tesco value, 20p a tub stuff!

    Just as nice. ;)

    Well came in on budget for April so as soon as Monday comes will start May budget. Will have to do a freezer dive until then and see what we have left.

    ANY!

    I used utterly butterly but any butter, spread, suet or reserved fat from a roast would work. ;)

    I think my experience of sms is they vary, my local m&s ys about an hour or two before closing time and then again further reductions about 1/2 hour before closing, hth

    I don't end my month till Monday, but am going to put anymore spends on May, as its all surplus to requirements. See you over the other side, its such a shame the thread has to be split like this, surely there is another way to do it.

    I've got a serving bowl of cooked pasta which is uneaten. What can I do with it?
