  • Tonight we are having pizza, side salad and a few sweet potato fries, I've made a shepherds pie for tomorrow instead of the usual Sunday roast, will be all roasted out what with Christmas and New Year's Day dinners.

    Must be pizza night, I rarely eat pizza or pasta but doing a fly past through marks and spencer I saw a wood fired style pizza and fancied it - discounted to £3, so Italian night, pizza, salad and red wine - yum x

  • We all had a full English breakfast this morning, so to full for lunch but tonight we are having shepherds pie, with sprouts and carrots. Popped into Ald! Yesterday and the sprouts and carrots were only 15p each, what a bargain.

    We had pies, I had leek, mushrooms parsnip cheese and chestnut.
    Daughter had leek, mushroom, chicken and cheese.
    Husband had steak and kidney.

    It wasnt difficult, husbands came out of freezer, I made the base with leek and mushrooms with a cheese sauce and added the rest in.

    They all got topped with ready rolled pastry.

    We had this with peas, mash and broccoli.
