Good evening everyone,
PN- matching plates my word......:cool: I'm with Farway, mine are all plain white so no matching or otherwise issues and eassy to replace when they break/get chipped.

The oven seal has been replaced again. Chap who came was a wee gem so hopefully this one isn't faulty.

I've still not decided about dinner, it's back to bleeding baltic weather-wise and I want something hot and filling. Will have a rake but I think a baked spud may feature or pasta:)

I've a side of salmon to portion but really CBA doing it tonight and I want to make a decent job of it so that knocks salmon off the choices unless I pop a portion of smoked trimmings out of the freezer and make a quick sauce with some spinach.

For tea I went with the easy.... had a couple of the biggest of the spuds I bought (the 29p/2.5Kg bag from Mr T), topped with beans (already opened this morning) and grated cheese (why not, eh!).

A nice belly filling winter warmer.... to try to keep my mind away from the fact I have chocolates and crisps in abundance in the "Xmas food bag" hidden away.

I've already eaten half my 'xmas' chocolate bar and all my water biscuits

Oh and I had mash last night so only one large potato left!

I won't go shopping again till the new year, trouble is I'm eating all the 'good' stuff now, leaving myself with little to be festive with :cool:

Oh you got to keep something back to festive with - hide the cheese! Mind you it is "Advent" so a daily treat is almost obligatory;):)

Wednesday - that's not a dream it's a nightmare !!!:eek:

Lots of cheese with nothing to eat it with!

But I do love cheese so it's not a problem

Could be worth venturing back into a shop for....;)
Just don't get the chocolate flavoured stuff, it's a step too far! (My friend got a sample of this http://www.hotelchocolat.com/uk/dry-gin.html and let's just say we weren't impressed:eek:)
