Nah, the last I saw, there wasn't much left at the buffet. Jo did ask who wanted a slice of 'Frozen' cake and there was only a couple of us shouted up. I was the first to say....only if you're cutting it for someone else. She says...it's already cut and brings a slice in for someone else...I never got mine

Well crackers , or crispbreads arent dear ....I am having three crackers with no butter , but spread with low fat cheese triangles for supper ....all * basic* range stuff ....

a big pan of soup would last you a couple of days.. with a wholemeal roll..cheap as chips to make and far better for you

yes, I tend to stay away from bread and most carbs..if I have a veg and meat I have one small potato quartered, boiled and not mashed fill up the rest of the plate with veg...stir fry is good too,,,add a bit of chicken and very little calories, filling too

I am substituting soup for dinner a couple of days a week .....and then just eating small portions of things like pasta , or tuna the other days ...

brown rice is good..but a bugger to cook
I see your point both of you. Maybe I should start stocking up and freezing a lot of stuff now for when I'm really in dire straits

Yes , I fill up on veggie's....and fruit. I also bought a couple of packets of dried fruit and nuts etc from Aldi , for treats ....cost about a quid , but it's quite a big bag and lasts about a week ...

I told you this 2/3 years ago..it's a far cheaper and healthier option Pam

Why? What's difficult with cooking brown rice? Forgive me, I've never done it so I don't know

it doesn't soften as good as long grain or any of the others

It's a good idea Pam....not only save you money , but also give you something to do
Yes, you're right
How many times have I watched Lord of the Rings........and I'm still glued

I didn't mind it, but given the fact I don't watch many films, I haven't anything to base it on
