    So sorry for your loss IM. Obviously there's never a good time for such things but this time of year can seem particularly hard emotionally. Big hugs xx

    Hello all

    Posting in this group again as I enjoyed doing it :)

    Today we had sausage, sweet potato roasties, carrots, broccoli and gravy for lunch

    This evening it is a lentil soup with bread. I made the lentil soup myself with a jar of lentils, carrots, potatoes, onion, seasoning and stock then blended when cooked. My daughter seems to love soup for her tea so I’m going to make the effort and make them more especially in the colder months ahead.

    Sorry for your loss Islandmaid always heartbreaking to lose someone close, I'm still reeling from the shock of DFV's sad loss.


    3 of us tonight, got a piece of brisket in the slow cooker with some root Veg and a red wine gravy. Have a few spuds leftover from Christmas so shall make some mash to have with it.

    Husband had chilli, I had jacket potatoes that I made yesterday scooped out the middles, mashed with cheese and chives.

    Husband had to have rice with his chilli as daughter had some friends round and they ate the other cheese and chive potatoes.

    This broken woman is back to work for a rest today!
    Lovely holidays had but eating out and drinking too much has left me craving normality, last nights dinner was pork steaks with loads of red cabbage and a little mustard mash, similar again tonight
    Lunch is quiche and breakfast was toast and marmite!
    The veg craving is real so going to make some soup over the weekend for work next week

    Hope you all had a lovely time at Christmas and new year

    Last night was a veg chilli from the freezer.

    Think tonight will prob be a pizza if OH wants to share it.
    I have some HM chicken stock defrosting in the fridge to make a casserole over the weekend. Don't think I've been food shopping bar bread and milk since before Xmas.

    Last night we had salmon pasta bake. I've just had marmite and cheese on toast for lunch. Tonight we're having chilli con carne.
