    Having had to walk to work yesterday (still too much snow/ice to get the car out) I succumbed to buying a bacon sarnie and a take away tea from the local cafe. Was worth it though!!

    Back to good behaviour today and took leftover gingered beef casserole and a home made garlic and coriander naan bread - yummy!

    This is a great idea.. Although I bring in my own lunch for work. However, I do go to the local Sainsbury's Supermarket from time to time to get a bit of something extra. Next week I will try to bring in my lunch and stick with it all week.
  • I have used this to help me past the Subway and hamburger shop every day this year! So far I have only bought lunch when I am meeting someone for lunch, and have only bought breakfast from the sandwich man once this year.

    The sandwich man also does breakfast stuff, if you were wondering!

    Congrats on the fancy lunches, I have been bringing in sarmies on a daily basis. - if I cooked extra the night before, I would just eat more the night before..
