    Out, small HM Christmas pud, just another one more to use. Small pk of HM fruit compote, pk of venison mince. 
    Still no shopping done since 23/12/20 I'm running low on one or two things mainly milk and butter, fresh fruit and veg so may have to have an online shop next week. Mr Z had toasted ham sandwiches for lunch and because I'm low on butter I brushed olive oil over the bread  - worked a treat.

    @borollan, poor dogs! @zafiro1984, you done very well! Not wasting is great, but getting fresh produce is good too! Try a bit of mayo and mustard mixed instead of butter for ham sandwiches, ms C loves it.
    Out: chicken dumplings for snack after walk, ingredients for cauliflower rarebit for dinner. Took puff pastry out for dessert, too tired to bother, so tomorrow, hopefully. 
    In: 0, but bought pork loin steaks on special, still need to portion, tomorrow. 
    Getting up at 3am this week  :#

    I haven't been counting fruit and veg on here ... should I
    I eat plant based all the time so have just counted stuff I pull out of the cupboards, larder and freezer ... wondering if the mustard and mayo would be nice with tomatoes on a sandwich as don't eat pork.

    ...could try a few chopped capers instead of mustard too (or a few drops  of lemon/lime juice)
