veggie bakes out the freezer for dinner with some mash (we've got a glut of potatoes!) and beans.

Well out of the freezer came some chicken roll for sandwiches and a home grown beef joint that is in the slow cooker.

Unfortunately what went in was some of the fruits of my 2 and a half hour reduce to clear bargain hunting which included 4 massive free range organic chickens that were originally £12 each and I got them for £3-£4 each, bread for 10p a loaf.

Out today came a gammon joint, we have just had gammon, egg and noodles for dinner. I will turn some of the leftover gammon in to a ham and split pea soup for lunch tomorrow and the rest with spaghetti and cheese sauce for dinner.

Nothing has gone in.

No freezer movement here.
Mr F is away - I am not rooting around in the chest freezer with my bad back. Mr F will be home in the early hours - I will be in bed. If he doesn't get something out of the freezer for dinner then - I will sort out a meal tomorrow.

Took out some asparagus and potato mash thing and a stilton and mash thing that i had made and froze last week.

Quite a lot will be going in to the freezer on the run up to christmas. Tonight i finally have a clear table so tomorrow is freezer inventory and rearrangement day!

Had a quick meal as on my own and I think the tablets have taken away my appetite.

Thank you soworrird, when they are that good you just have to go for it. At least one of them is that big it will do a roast dinner, say chicken fajitas (got 2 packs coz they were on offer and worked out quite reasonable), a chicken jacket potato type meal and then pick the carcus (sp?) For a curry/sweet ans sour dish. So that's a minimum of 4 days of meals for me and the hubby. That cannot be bad for 1 chicken. Although I need to increase my repertoire of chicken meals as I do those sorts of things with a chicken all the time.

Left over chicken ideas are welcome.

In to freezer - nothing.
Out of freezer - HM Shepherd's Pie + HM Apple Pie + Breaded Chicken.
Back slightly better today - so what did I do?
Painted three new interior doors then hoovered upstairs of house!
Dinner was HM wedges + baked beans + poached eggs.
Can you tell - got a lot of eggs here?
