burgers tonight. I'll have one bun and 2 patties but the OH will have 2 proper burgers. But there's lots of salad stuff to have with them both so it will be nice. Must remember to open the new jar of pickled beets. Oh and top the burgers with cheese - we've cheddar, gouda and roquefort.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

@sarahj1986 - so sorry to hear of your trials and tribulations and very glad to hear of your escape from a horrible situation. Wishing your husband a speedy recovery and happier times for all of you in your new home.
I'm feeling quite pleased with myself this week as I've managed to avoid the temptation to buy more food and have used up lots of things that were sitting around in the fridge. Monday and Tuesday were both more use-it-up lentil and veg stew with fettucini, tenderstem and green beans, Wednesday was fried tofu, rice noodles and mushrooms and yesterday was a huge tabouleh topped with everything from jars that I thought might taste nice, ricotta and a roll.3 -
