    I have bought 2 packs of lemons today, will probably slice 1 up, I have a couple of slices in warm water every morning, I have 3 limes in fridge will cut those into wedges, useful for those evening drinks too.

    In - nothing but haven't been shopping yet but don't think there will be anything which will need freezing
    Out - bag of raw prawns for curry tonight; a HM Goan curry sauce from last time I made this plus some of the frozen coconut milk from last time as well - so tonight's dinner will be completely from the freezer (apart from the rice which will be from stores)

    Disappointingly had to make a quick shop at Aldi, if I am having pork tomorrow I want some sage and onion stuffing.
    I will make as many portions as it comes to and freeze any left over.
    Decided to pick up a few other bits too so may escape shops all week, will breadcrumb a whole loaf excess will get frozen, 2 bags of onions will skin and chop most of them, again excess into freezer, also as I had got the last of my mince out of freezer, replaced it.
    Do I need it or just want it.
