    hope so!!

    Just had a bowl of cous cous. OH is watching football at the club so I've done him chicken ratatouille with pasta and that can be reheated later.

    I was happy just to chuck some cous cous in a dish with tomatoes and spice to be honest and stick some water on it for me!

    I could have had the pasta and the ratatouille as i've already had my b choices today but cous cous just hit the spot!
    :D"Stay Wonky":D
