    Been doing good this week, we finally have some space in our freezer, OH is happy as that means I can buy him a pie.

    Used up an entire bag of spinach without wasting any which I shamefully don't think has ever happened before.

    Get to banish a bag of party mini cheese and onion rolls from the freezer today to take to another party.
