    I went to the local M&S foodhall, I wanted some biscuits for the food hampers I do our parents for Christmas. They were reducing the food. I asked the young man if I could have one of the salads he was reducing, there were six of them. He answered that I couldn't, I would have to wait until he put it on the shelf. So I did.
    I then spotted other bits, our dinner was salmon mousse, tuna pate, salad and bread as starters. Liver and bacon with mash, vege Kiev and a fruit jelly to finish. Total cost of £3.80. I don't usually eat ready meals but really enjoyed my dinner tonight.

    YS lasagne and green salad here, OH had 'nana and custard after, I was too full.

    JIL I made a note of your recent post for a nut roast and made one today, had to have a taste and it is really yummy, nothing weighed or measured so will never be able to exactly replicate it, but I love a bit of adventure :rotfl: Thank you for posting it.:A

    Thanks, glad it turned out ok.
    Mine never taste the same, different bread, nuts, cheeses, herbs, the Christmas one has chestnuts and cranberries in it and doubles up as a stuffing for the meat eaters.
  • I just ordered the bits I'll need to make the Mushroom, cranberry and chestnut tart I'm planning for Christmas day (as the token vegetarian, I am expected to bring my own dish...) - I've never done this one before, have tweaked the recipe already after reading it and think a trial run would be wise. Should be posting about delicious or not so delicious results on Tuesday or Wednesday!

    Last night I ordered in - I was home alone and could not be bothered with cooking.

    No ideas about tonight yet - alone again (the OH is in a band who get very busy near Christmas), so likely a shove in the oven veggie pie with chips and frozen peas.
