oh dear, just looked through spicesofindia website and can see me spending lots. on the plus point there are a few of us splitting the order so we get the free postage.
have been struggling getting lots of spices in morrys and I flatly refuse to go into tesclo, my other option is to go into town to find an indian grocers and I can see that being deadly for me


think I may go over this month now.

Meal plan is;
Kung po chicken and rice
Tuesday;
Roast chicken, roasties and veg
Wed;
Steak (out freezer night before!) and homemade wedges, peas and grilled tom.
Thursday
Leftover chicken Risotto with chicken stock made from carcass.

Luckily I have most of the items for these meals I just need lunches and snacks and the chicken for roast

Milk, Toilet Rolls, Spaghetti and Pasta Sauce bought so have £2.70 left to last tomorrow and monday. I may go and buy some bread and milk tomorrow so I know we are covered till Tuesday.

I think I may have just managed it this month as well. Phew.

My record keeping has gone a bit off track so I'll try to make sense of the receipts I've got. I may have blown it a bit last week because didn't do a big shop, ended up with a few top-up shops...but they don't seem to add up to much. I sometimes wonder whether a big shop makes me buy too much and waste more! What does everyone else think?

Five more days to go and I think I may be under budget (famous last words). Yesterday bought soya milk, Alpro yoghurt and some houmous - don't really need anything for these last 5 days - would like some packs of pittas - they normally sell them 4 packs for a £1 in my local international stores and avocados - that would see me through for breakfasts/lunches, otherwise I can make do with bagels that are in the freezer. Today will be Sunday lunch with family. Have updated sig.
