What are you making for dinner?

Soup for lunch probably French Onion as I seem to have the British Onion Mountain in my veg rack and supper this evening will be Nigella Lawson's Beef with beans and pasta because I've been fancying that for a couple of days, proper comfort food. HWK still has one piece of rhubarb upside down cake for pud if he wants it too!5

Not sure what dinner tonight will be but prob something simple. I know I need to sort out the diet on the food front, this week has gone to pot but I'm not beating myself up over it. So far today two crumpets and a ginger cookie from lidl (the all butter stem ginger ones...seriously moorish)

Friday. Fish. No religious reason, just a way to get us to eat fish at least once a week. Breaded cod fillets, chips (Fresh potaotes. In our air fryer. Both recommended) & tartare sauce.PS. A flake of fish for Henry. Knowing he'll get something stops him pestering."Life is much/far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about it." Oscar Wilde, in "Vera; or, The Nihilists” (much), then "Lady Windermere's Fan" (far).5

For lunch we had jacket potato with cottage cheese&salad.
For tea we had spring rolls & curry from Aldi. I was quite disappointed to be honest. But I didn’t finish work till late so didn’t want to cook after. I also sometimes buy that curry (king prawn bhuna) for lunch at work and I like it, but today it just tasted bland. Not sure if they changed recipe.

Lunch today will be Swedish rice porridge topped with butter and cinnamon sugar to use up some milk, we seem to be over 'milked' in the fridge and supper this evening will be a sweet potato, chick pea and spinach curry with rice, I made it last night and it should have improved for standing, curries usually do.4

Aldi sirloin steak from the freezer stash, with local spinach, asparagus and new potatoes from the veg box, will make a peppercorn sauce too. Lemon posset for pud.
Brunch will be tinned sardines on toastNote to self - STOP SPENDING MONEY !!
