    Planning a chicken curry, that will use OUT 2 breasts from the freezer, I hate chicken breast, don`t know why I bought them, part of the bag of y.s. spinach and some of the frozen corriander.
    Do I need it or just want it.
  • Just a bit of fruit out today, and we're having eggs for tea so probably nothing else - but nothing in either

    26 from 100 items now used up that were purchased before the start of September 2018. Keep having small fruit portions (blackberries and black currants) but a lot left still.
