    Out: cake batter to make 8 muffins, 

    It's been a leftover day, yesterday's casserole for DH with a puff pastry crust, and some YS crispy potato slices, a piece of breaded chicken for me - all from the fridge.
    There's still plenty of fruit and veg in the fridge which will need using up in the next few days so I'll see if I can get a few more meals out of it before visiting the freezer again.

    I've had shingles confirmed today, I've had back ache and a rash for a couple of weeks and eventually told DH who took one look at it and said shingles and he should know - then he had a go at me for keeping quiet. It's so painful

    In: 3 x double portions of parsnip and squash soup all from stuff in the freezer
    Out:- cooked portion of beef and kidney, will put a suet crust on it for Dh tea

    I'm not very hungry so will have a couple of pears, a piece of cheese and a few walnuts or maybe I'll make a waldorf salad and have it with cheese in a wrap.
    Sad times  - no alcohol allowed with my painkillers.

    In:  Cooked 500g bag of dried haricot beans - the equivalent of 2 cans in a sausage cassoulet for dinner tonight; equivalent of 3.5 cans frozen.  There will definitely be leftovers of the cassoulet to be frozen but probably not until tomorrow!
    Out:  smoked salmon and prawns for lunch tomorrow
