    Now 5 out of the 11 (2017) freezer stored batch cooked recipes used up this month.

    Went out to acquire a present for somebody and also got a few fridge storage "yellow-sticker" items for myself, "saving" £3.69.

    Half way through the month and more or less half of the 2017 freezer stored batch cooked recipes have been used up.

    Went out today but no food purchased. Online (food) shopping possibly next week.
