    You're welcome.  I often make carrot & lentil soup when I've got some carrots which need using up.

    Not really used up anything for a couple of days: there is chicken in the fridge to use tomorrow that was supposed to go into pasta today but we'd both had a long day and went to the chippy instead. We have soups in the freezer but are taking them away with us next week, and I'll raid the cupboards for other stuff to use up while self-catering.

    I will confess to a breeding colony of hot cross buns having taken up residence, but we are fighting back and are down to the last three (for now). The chocolate stash is also one large bar less.

    I forgot to mention finishing two boxes of flavoured teas recently but I'll be replacing one.
