    Mrs Lurcherwalker - that sounds a great idea I will add some digestives to the shopping list:D

    Another one for smoked mackerel salad, very tasty.

    Ps: I trid halloumi, grilled, it was ok, not inedible but rubbery and slightly salty !!!8211; I would eat it again

    I love halloumi! I bought some YS 'grilling cheese' in Mr T which was a cheaper brand anyway, and turned out to be cow's milk rather than goats or sheeps, well it was only 40p a pack so rude not too :D:D (in fact I bought 5 packs :o)

    Daughters were a bit sniffy at first and it wasn't quite as nice, but it was ok :)

    Really fancied a jacket potato last night despite the heat, so I cooked the whole pack to save leccy :D, and had it with humous, and coleslaw - lovey

    I'm going to have grilled courgettes and mushrooms on rice tonight with garlic and a few pine nuts added, and do a piece of cod for OH

  • Having sorted out the freezers yesterday I now know what I have to use up before the move happens. The small freezer sadly did not survive being moved indoors and was making the most horrific racket so it's gone to the tip and the big one in the kitchen is only 1/4 full now yippee!

    So our lunch today will be a tuna and sweetcorn salad (found 2 x unopened packs of sweetcorn buried in the home growns and our supper this evening will be ham omelettes with a jacket potato (re-heated) and some steamed carrots, peas and courgettes in some form or other, berries and fat free yoghurt if we want them and the coffee as usual.
