Hi everyone
Damage limitation going well. Had forgotten I'd hidden a bag of grapes at the back of the fridge as DD & DS would have demolished them at one go, just remembered them and now we are all sitting with big bowls full as they are beginning to go brown :mad:. Force feeding the dog the worst ones - she doesn't seem keen so I might wash these and give to OH when he comes in from work:rotfl:This reminds me of a previous post - sorry can't remember who, but it was about left overs on plates. Had thought about mentioning this before but thought it possibly a step too far even for on here - should have known better:rotfl:, OH often works late so gets his dinner after us so I'm afraid any leftovers from our plates go onto his:o HM lasagne from freezer in oven now but I think OH will have most of it because mum took us out for a big lunch of comfort food today and we are still quite stuffed.
Does anyone know if the cravendale offer is still on anywhere as I've just got one left in the freezer now?
Does anyone know of anywhere still selling off easter eggs - wish I had got them when I saw them in ASDA for 50p - but wasn't thinking:mad:
Will need to get cheese, eggs, rice, bread flour from lidl this weekend and some fruit and veg from morrisons with a £5 voucher:j - been getting my petrol there but sometimes forget to take my points card:mad:
Have a good evening everyone and thanks for the read.

Weemissy, it was still on in Sainsbury's when I went yesterday.

Regarding leftovers, I have sometimes frozen whole dinners on the plate (covered with clingfilm) and then reheated later in the microwave. Never been a problem.

Weemissy - full page Sainsburys add in the Times yesterday had cravendale still on offer up to about 26th May (can't find the paper now but I remember the small print saying about that date)

hey skintscotslass, should be fine to add the lentils and oats, you won't even notice the oats once its cooked.

Thank you :T . I've cooked it now and have forgotten about the oats and lentils!! Nope, cant see the lentils either. I did just put a handful of each in. I'll get braver as time goes on

Update on the cravendale - my brain is suffering from fridayitis -not 26th may (wrong month) found the paper it's 29th April.

I'll go back to sleep now!!!

Evening everyone.

Not been in the supermarket for a good few days. (think it was last thursday when we went last??)
OH keeps saying that we need to go shopping but i have been putting him off.

Anyway we will need milk so will venture to the shops tomorrow.

don`t give your pooch anymore grapes/raisins etc as they are toxic to dogs :eek: they can cause serious side effects. i have to admit my rottie would bend over backwards for them he loves them...but he loves eating everything :rolleyes: i never give them to the dog but occasionally one drops on the floor and its hoovered up before i have a chance to pick it up.

Big thank you to JennyBee, the sausage and redwine casserole was lovely:D

I could lie and say it was one of my own very special recipes but it's not Glad you liked it!! I've never had much luck with sausage casseroles before but was really pleased with this one!

Thanks for the B&M clarification! Obviously they don't have them in Somerset otherwise I'm sure I would have noticed them!!

NSD for me today although we're braving a trip to Ikea for the sale tomorrow so if you don't hear from me again it's because we've been crushed by the masses of mad bargain hunters!!!!
