    Snake and pigmy pies this evening from Sainsbugs.  I've some salad leaves so might add those to my plate.  Him indoors will likely want beans (boggled!!)

    Last evening's supper was lovely and more healthy.  Salmon cooked on the BBQ (no smell and no washing up!) with some new potatoes and a lovely grapefruit and spinach salad.  Another dish he was frowned at until he tasted it - and hoovered it up.

    @JIL
    what spice mix is it that you got?  I only ask as I'm off that way next month having never been before.  (to Crete specifically rather than Greece itself)

    Tonight's plan was to have pork chops with rice and I thought that I'd roast some of the frozen peppers etc that I have.  But the neighbour stopped by with a very large portion of fresh picked runner beans so I'm wondering about having mash and the beans instead.  Rice with runner beans doesn't seem right somehow.

    Friday is traditionally pizza day in our house. I make them with a wholemeal base enriched with egg, with plenty of leftover dough formed into bread for tomorrow's lunch. Tonight it's ham and mushrooms for the OH, I have white sauce (leftover bechamel from pie making, frozen in icecube trays for easy portioning) with mushrooms, caramelised red onions, sweetcorn and olives. 

    There tends to be a few glasses of wine on a Friday night, so it's comforting to know that lunch tomorrow is already sorted!
