soup and cheese for supper. unless I decided to make a tuna bun to go with my soup. must remember to take the spare box of instant borscht to work tomorrow. I don't mind if it get used up by others as it's close to it's BBD and I do have another to use at home.

I can see daylight in three out of seven freezer drawers now, so I’m winning at last.

I remembered to defrost a pack of chicken thighs last night and will make a Thai green curry. However I’m off work this week and Mr CJ has suggested we have lunch out somewhere (rule is: whoever suggests it, pays!) so we will probably end up just having a light snack tonight and the curry will move to tomorrow.4

Not sure what tonight will be - might do non-chicken katsu fillets (from the freezer) with rice if OH wants to eat at the same time as me.Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Snake & pigmy pudding for the OH and a steak pie for me. He'll want beans. Not sure what I'll have - might clear out some of the veg for roasting and add a tomato or 2.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.
