  • We had panini for tea. Gammon and cheddar, and stilton and cranberry. Very yummy.

    More in freezer, sliced cooked gammon, 2 x small fresh gammon joints , 6 cooked chicken breasts and a freezer bag full of grated mature cheddar.

    I need to make some vegetarian sausage rolls and cheese straws but dont have room in any of my freezers so have emailed mum to ask if she has room for them if i make them LOL!!!

    I am thankful for all that we have, we are going to have a very enjoyable christmas indeed.

    I will be making all the desserts, but none of them can be frozen in advance so i don't need freezer space for any of them. Thankfully!

    No freezer movements.
    Oh dear - bit confused here- went to get Shepherd's Pie out of fridge where it had been defrosting - it was casserole. Now I remember Mr F telling me - he couldn't find the SP in the freezer.
    We had casserole + roast potatoes + carrots + swede + sprouts for dinner.

    Hi everyone hope you are all well and doing well on the shopping etc.

    I've got Abel & Cole delivering tomorrow and a few bits will go in freezer but most is destined for the fridge.

    Had a fridge clear out today to make room, so OH has PB&J (peanut butter and morello cherry jelly) sandwiches for lunch tomorrow. He was having a blond moment though and put them in separate sandwiches. :rotfl:

    Florenceem well done and Welsh Poppy too :T You both put me to shame :o

    Are you just counting food though or food and toiletries etc ?

    My weekly bank transfer from OH has to cover all disposables including toiletries (makeup and perfume excluded), light bulbs, sandwich bags, chewing gum, stamps, shoe polish and OTC medicines.

    Messed up my Abel & Cole order and instead of 4 x 2L milk I got 5 x 0.5L ie 2.5L total. So tomorrow I have to go brave the supermarket :(

    Freezer movements OUT nut cutlets for dinner.
