A return to meal planning.
I have been talking about meal planning A LOT lately with various friends and my newly married sister, Liv.

My […]

Gourmet Garden Blog Off /Cook off.
If I wasn’t busy enough with moving house and unpacking and consulting with builders and dealing with holes in our downstairs ceiling, I decided on a whim to participate in a blogging cooking competition! Yes, I know, my kitchen is a disgusting pit of neglect with no cupboard doors, a massive water leak underneath the […]
Summer meal planning.
Now that the weather is warming up, I need to bust out the summer food menu so I can get meal planning again. Meals since Mum and Dad and my sister and her boyfriend left have been haphazard to say the least. Last night Ron ate a left over chicken kiev with a bowl of […]

Meal Plan Monday – edition 2
After last week’s credit card statement and subsequent child-eating-money fiasco, a few things have to change. Firstly, no more playing with money. Secondly, no more spending money. So Meal Plan Monday is back with a vengeance. I am really pleased to announce that I have not had to do a big grocery shop since last […]
