Chilli and Cornbread tonight. Will make some kitchen sink cookies later to take to a friends. I've nearly cleaned out everything. How much did we all save? I've used about 1/4 of the food budget last fortnight.

What are kitchen sink cookies? Everything in them but....?

I have not brought anything other than fresh fruit and veggies. I am even managing on only a few big tins of tuna, some frozen fish fillets and scallops, a few kilos of chicken breast and a kilo or so of mince. I want to try to keep on going until next shopping day, which is not until Thursday next week. I will need some more fruit for sure, but might be able to squeeze out another week from what I have!

I have used up some nuts and almost out of date cream cheese in dips over the past few days. I made some bolegnaise in the thermie today and used up the last of some herbs, and old bottle of red wine and a tin of tomatoes and the last bits and pieces of lots of bags of pasta. I have been having green smoothies with some frozen spinach I have from a friends garden and frozen fruits. We found an old bag of pretzels at the back of the cupboard which the kids have devoured, lol. And some cashews too!
