The tin cupboard
But I can’t keep writing the same old stuff!  Still, there should be some new stuff going on soon, as we are on A Mission.

We have a 24 hour mini-Sainsburys, a fab butcher, and a wonderful Indian grocer all at the top of the street. We have a mega 24 hour Tesco (yes, I hate them, but in an emergency …) 20 minutes walk away. We also have a cupboard full of tins, a freezer full of stuff, another cupboard stuffed with various dried beans, and *four* bags of wholemeal flour in the ridiculous well stocked “spares” cupboard above the freezer. So it’s time to eat it, and make more storage space.

Due to the butcher’s canny new idea of putting nice cuts in his shiny new display fridge, we have lurking in the freezer venison, brisket, a shoulder of pork bought for a supper party and not used, and cut into two pieces before freezing, a half leg of lamb, and masses of stuff we cooked ourselves. And two huge tubs of rhubarb from a friend’s allotment, which we must *eat*, diet or no diet. I’ll be making bread too, to get rid of the flour mountain – how the hell do we manage to *acquire* all this stuff?

So I shall be writing here  more regularly again, but first we need to clear space in the freezer so that more things can be cooked and frozen. It’s a bit like the Forth Road Bridge, really, but we shall persevere.
