    I did think that, but it would prob end up costing us more :rotfl::eek:

    Well I was going to roast a YS chicken I'd picked up on Sunday but upon opening it not only did it smell iffy, the wings and one end were going grey :eek: it is now residing in the food recycling bin. In hindsight I recall the pack leaving liquid on the counter when I paid for it (told the lady serving so she could wipe it up) so I'm guessing it wasn't fully sealed properly (not good then it was residing with other YS items). I know it was the second day last it's use by but it certainly shouldn't have been going grey imo. Anyway, customer services gave me the £ back in points so that's something, and perhaps if it wasn't sealed on Sunday I dodged a bullet there anyway.

    So dinner for me was pasta with spinach from the freezer and some grated cheese, OH had his Mexican rice mix.

    The cat has chicken I'd already roasted previously so she's happy too.

    Last night was king prawns in a tomato sauce with linguine and some basil from the garden. I had cheese on toast because I wasn't hungry.
    DH is Italian and a chef so pasta seems to feature a lot for us and with 3 growing boys they wolf it down . Tonight is spaghetti ragu, we made a huge pan this morning and it is simmering away. We will have more than enough left over for a lasagne later this week too. Tons of fruit to get through so that is afters sorted with some ice cream .

    Sliced roast chicken, petit pois, Yorkshires and stuffing all from the freezer with a little bit of LO mash with chives and some gravy.

    Absolutely no idea what OH had when he got in as I was still working.
