Out: 1/2 pack thai curry (it's a new product from Ald1s) quite yummy and saves time. Not too many calories too!

Goulash is boring in comparison. Got to love a typo.

I keep trying to clear my chest freezer so I can defrost it but somehow I seem to keep adding more to it from the batch cooking! Have taken a beef stew out for tomorrow night and a loaf of bread as down to the last few slices. Also taken out some chorizo to use for dinner tonight with some of the LO roast chicken from yesterday.
Also moved some steaks from the chest freezer into the fridge/freezer in the kitchen for later in the week (save me going outside to get it when I need it!)
