Thank you for the very helpful comments on my last post 👍 The eggs were, indeed, fine and were eaten on toast for lunch 😋
Today, Friday 25th April, gets us closer to the end of the month and a new injection of cash in the food budget, but there are still 5 days to go until then and 5 main meals to sort out. Yesterday, after the Spicy beanburger baps at lunchtime with our Daughter, we felt so full that we didn't want any tea other than a bowl of soup. By 9pm we fancied a bit of cheese and crackers but there were no crackers 😕 so we ate 2 shortbread biscuits each instead. Just as well really, at least we escaped indigestion! Anyway, I wanted to buy crackers and apples today so did another mini shop using Nectar points. The cake simply fell into my trolley and I left it there 😁 It was a bargain at £2 reduced from £3.50 With the current egg prices, I couldn't really make it much cheaper myself......
As we ate a hot lunch today consisting of plates of delicious veg and gravy, we won't need much for tea. I think cheese and crackers, and a slice of cake will hit the spot. Maybe an apple later tonight. We have Gardeners' World and Beyond Paradise on TV so a very relaxing watch tonight 😀 ....
Any plans for the weekend?

Thanks so much for dropping in once again. Do stay safe and well wherever you happen to be,

I did a smallish smart shop at Sainsburys today. Good job it was small as I ended up with a full re-scan. My fault entirely! It shows at the end what hasn't been scanned & I'd not scanned the white net bag for my loose potatoes (30p).
ReplyDeleteI hate it when that happens. It's usually a re scan when I'm in a hurry. Oops 😬 to not scanning the bag. I bet you felt really guilty 😔
DeleteI admire your powers of resistance when you are in a supermarket!
ReplyDeleteI just walk round in a blinkered fashion when I really don't want to spend much money!
DeleteCatching up on the washing after our few days away in The Lakes. Weather was better than expected and we had a great time. Also a large food shop is looming, I tried to use up everything in the fridge before we went, so the fridge/cupboards are bare and running low on cat food too, can't let Miss Sheva starve. Have a great weekend. Xx
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased you had a lovely time, Gill. Its always a bind to come back to washing though isn't it. Luckily the forecast is for a warm week 😎 so you can peg it all out !
DeleteAww, that poor cake tumbling into your trolley like that, thank goodness you took it home and looked after it. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI do love a good 2p shop, so well done on the onion grab.
I know, Sue, I took pity on it 😁 and it was delicious 😋 Not bad for a 2p shop.
DeleteWow! You did really well with your shopping! I went over my grocery budget, this month!
