    Oh dear, not the Company shop again bubbs. You must be their best customer! 🤣 Great bargains though.

    I realised that tonight's Bolognese was the last in the freezer. I know I'm low on HM ready meals because my cupboard with all the reusable containers is getting full. 😁 Fortunately I have everything in to make more so Bolognese is bubbling up in the SC. 😊 It's starting to feel like my normal routine as I always have Bolognese the night before WI as they're measured portions, followed by Puffed Wheat for my meanest breakfast.

    Glad to hear you got out and about denise. I often wonder why restaurants are so mean with veg when it's the cheapest part of the meal. 🤔 Good choice though. 👏

    maman you can buy frozen pomegranate seeds which are really good.  I haven't got any at the moment but I have been known to throw them into herby couscous and the boiling water defrosts them.  They're also good in overnight oats.

    Beanie I'm sure when bubbs posted details a while back she said it was very hit and miss what's available but she does seem to do well whenever she goes so looks like it might be worthwhile!  I'd certainly join up if I was nearer but there isn't any in the South as far as I could see.
