    I called by the Community Fridge on my way to do the week's supermarket shop earlier today, just as they were unloading yet anther massive delivery. I have been generally very fortunate with the items I source from the Fridge, and am very thankful for all that they do. They are a lovely bunch of volunteers there.

    I am planning to make a big spanakopita spinach filo type thing with a tomato and spring onion salad to take in for a sharing lunch picnic at work on Monday, and they had an avalanche of spinach, spring onions and tomatoes at the Fridge so I was very pleased with that. I also picked up limes, bananas, potatoes, tenderstem broccoli, red onions, peppers and giant portobello mushrooms. Will be doing stuffed mushrooms for dinner tonight.

    I had the last portion of the Nigella mung beans with minted yoghurt this evening accompanied by a rocket and cherry tomato salad and a couple of slices of toasted wholewheat bread followed by a braeburn with a coffee.

    Yes @Brie, I'm very lucky to work with some truly great people - I heart my job :)  Sadly I think the commute would be a bit too far for you though :(

    Tonight we are having some salmon fishcakes which I made some weeks ago and froze (so yay! a tiny bit more space freed up in the freezer!). Will serve with salad to be good, and some chips which will let the side down a bit. Carbs don't work on Saturdays though, right?
