I always make my own. I don't use currants or raisins but I do use dried strawberries, blueberris and cranberries. My recipe is distinctly unfrugal, especially as I make them for quite a few people. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrFMLSA9LU9gTuqKchfRV7mGpax5OJsY2A4yISAuhwkdA4ChJXIOWUfgJiECDS7zzcupPMWeZfm_o_HqEJZiwtztF_-LLUb3zcLEHcqrAkXqNhwoXJm35VpvdyOfJ_gpEzO3MJuJYwpe3MoD5FsUTXCZgAKvtQawCGJAJD04JvntB2IIsu5P9QCqUsdMM/s225/Christmas%20pudding%20002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;"><img border="0" data-original-height="225" data-original-width="225" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrFMLSA9LU9gTuqKchfRV7mGpax5OJsY2A4yISAuhwkdA4ChJXIOWUfgJiECDS7zzcupPMWeZfm_o_HqEJZiwtztF_-LLUb3zcLEHcqrAkXqNhwoXJm35VpvdyOfJ_gpEzO3MJuJYwpe3MoD5FsUTXCZgAKvtQawCGJAJD04JvntB2IIsu5P9QCqUsdMM/w400-h400/Christmas%20pudding%20002.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">But although they are not cheap to make, I love giving them, and in return I get goodies like mince pies, sausage rolls and piccalli. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Martin Lewis (Money Saving Expert) suggests a pre-nupp agreement, in other words a pre Christmas No Unnecessary Presents Pact. In many ways I agree: Christmas present giving can create a sense of obligation which the recipient may find it hard to filfil. Often presents finish up in the bin or charity shop anyway. Over the years I have reduced the number of presents I give.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">However, my puds won't br gracing the rails of a charity shop because I check that they will be wanted. I'm very grateful for the food gifts I receive, taking advantage of other people's particular culinary skill. I give my time and talent and reduce my friends food shopping bill and I enjoy the fruits of their kitchen skills </span></p><p><br /></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-16831651612153288882023-11-21T02:49:00.000+00:002023-11-21T02:49:27.956+00:00Amazon<p><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5RQO44oMNVVL8TowXuXMUpOlMc6NgtgC1hNcY_13561JojwxduPxd-3SvRV7Pmdjh8bTt2eK0biY3PqFjBSjj8oiRrGMRcvHfMP0WlZOOA2zuV4hYVpp7hQZbLt1GppFX5Ib847I1GkY-SVl-PxVaed-qpG3_dlZQFl06op2akf110FzcGHcmva7ZfnY/s409/Amazon%20001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="123" data-original-width="409" height="96" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5RQO44oMNVVL8TowXuXMUpOlMc6NgtgC1hNcY_13561JojwxduPxd-3SvRV7Pmdjh8bTt2eK0biY3PqFjBSjj8oiRrGMRcvHfMP0WlZOOA2zuV4hYVpp7hQZbLt1GppFX5Ib847I1GkY-SVl-PxVaed-qpG3_dlZQFl06op2akf110FzcGHcmva7ZfnY/s320/Amazon%20001.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I have something of a love/hate relationship with Amazon!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Amazon is very good at what it does. They supply a huge range of products at very competitive prices and they have a highly efficient delivery system.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Unfortunately they are also highly efficient at persuading me to buy things which it might be better to buy elsewhere or not at all. It's all too easy to click on something on their site and know it will be delivered next day. Amazon Prime makes that even easier with an annual payment for delivery so everything seems even better value. Occasionally I have even ordered a single bar of chocolate (value around 50p) for the joy of knowing that my order has cost Amazon far more than I have paid. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I've now decided to be more mindful when I shop at that site with the smiley face. I've cancelled Prime. I've installed <a href="https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/icebox-by-findercom/fcmlicifjccilkplgaocighdjdcklhbd?pli=1" target="_blank">Icebox</a> so that items go "on ice" for a day instead of directly into my cart. Icebox also acts as a holding list for small items which I can amalgamate to create an order worth £25 and so get free delivery. (Be very careful with the free delivery option: you need to check everything with a fine tooth comb.) </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Black Friday is coming up and Amazon has some very good deals but they are only good deals if I really need them. I've managed to get Sloggi briefs at a good price. Amazon's own devices are always on offer at this time so I waited until now for my new Echo device and smart doorbell which I have got as a bundled deal. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">My Amazon spend has dropped considerably since I cancelled Prime. Some things I have managed without, others have gone on my weekly shopping list and been bought locally. </span></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-75076609449135886462023-11-18T15:04:00.002+00:002023-11-18T15:04:38.812+00:00Sam Vimes Boots<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="182" data-original-width="277" height="182" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwn_2KF9ju48PMKEHVyFGpWQ-qfn44OzQ-UqdTRM5UspxZoUQAZCMP0mwritVrshBQLYk5Igva1Ne65J0wgeW-zbGMj1pVRCYPwHYM5fhuuPDCX11ojrMK8TbF7wicUf2VQeheL3B4ebnE-Y5bpGobvFOUaww4TGc7ZLAp_jlGkcpVrU65s-6da6fht_A/s1600/Boots%20001.jpg" width="277" /></span></div><span style="font-size: x-large;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span>You probably know about boot theory: </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; font-family: inherit;"><span>that people in poverty have to buy cheap products that need to be replaced repeatedly, proving more expensive in the long run than more expensive item. Put more simply it's buy cheap and you need to buy twice (or even more!). </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; text-align: left;">I am able to set money aside to save me money long term, eg I bought an air fryer and thus save on energy costs, but others can't afford that investment. </span></div></span></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Although I try to be frugal, my frugality is by choice. I have a fair income (state and occupational pensions) and my needs are modest. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; font-size: x-large;">I am aware that there are many who have to choose between heating and eating. There are parents who go hungry to feed their children. There are many for whom Christmas is a time to dread. Frugality is not a choice but a life sentence. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">My frugality is about getting value for money rather than getting the cheapest possible. It's also about avoiding waste as a matter of principle. It's about mindfully using my money, possessions, skills and time. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">All this is to explain why I have been AWOL from this blog for such a long time. I have decided to return but I want to be open and say that I can write only about the frugality which applies to me and the choices I can make. I have more money than many but disability costs me dearly. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">I take my hat off to those who have far less choices and still live a glorious life. </span></span></p><p><span><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"> </span></span></p><p><br /></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-79032600837134159912023-03-24T17:33:00.001+00:002023-03-24T17:34:20.425+00:00What happened next<p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"> What happened to the contents of that lovely <a href="https://frugallychallenged.blogspot.com/2023/03/the-box.html" target="_blank">"Waste not" box?</a></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie5psAm9N5MME0ALE2IwwNAQZ5_3gO3v4eVFBEbZ8-705NMpXnk124sd5tH-OrT86fg-mwHsHqYEhaNJt0BYzdCouKLSmig4KKyZjlUi6qGYU9yOBjtwaCkq0spwv_Nj50CPCTU60kVGaKEXd6SIAkyi_MsnH3MQX3mvWtBB_F1kedmtav2VyFRqOq/s4032/IMG_1377.JPG" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: justify;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie5psAm9N5MME0ALE2IwwNAQZ5_3gO3v4eVFBEbZ8-705NMpXnk124sd5tH-OrT86fg-mwHsHqYEhaNJt0BYzdCouKLSmig4KKyZjlUi6qGYU9yOBjtwaCkq0spwv_Nj50CPCTU60kVGaKEXd6SIAkyi_MsnH3MQX3mvWtBB_F1kedmtav2VyFRqOq/w480-h640/IMG_1377.JPG" width="480" /></a></div></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The onions, the chilli and the swede were perfectly sound and went into my general vegetable store.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Two onions plus the peppers, padron peppers, tomatoes and aubergine went into ratatouille.

I gave my figures since 2018 and said that in 2022 I was going to reduce the weekly spend from £44.17 per week to £35 which I called "a very considerable reduction".

Eating out includes coffees and snacks as well as the occasional meal. In 2020 and 2021 such treats were very curtailed because of the pandemic and I felt a little anxious that once the compulsory restraint was over my spend would once again soar. That hasn't happened - I still take my own snacks if I go out for the day and I have reduced the frequency of meals out with friends.</span></span></span></div><p></p><p><span><span style="font-size: large;"><span face="Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" style="background-color: white;

I could afford to spend more on food but there are other things I want to do which will cost money!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">There are some economies I can identify.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">1. I have reduced my meat and fish consumption. I haven't gone vegetarian (I like fish and meat A LOT!) but I have changed the things I buy. For example one of my oily fish portions was usually a salmon steak or smoked mackerel: now it's more likely to be a tin of sardines. I've also reduced my portion sizes.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">2. I keep a very careful eye on my stores. The fridge is checked daily to see what ought to be eaten that day. I have inventories of the contents of my freezer and tin stores. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">3. I shop only once a week with few top ups. I find it hard to go to a supermarket and come out with just the loaf of bread or pint of milk I went it for. Somehow other "essentials" would find their way into my basket so I just don't go in. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">(I'll be listing more cuts in my next post)</span></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-24942773360847672702022-10-04T15:41:00.002+01:002022-10-04T15:41:40.118+01:00The time has come<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwgVVtX34Moasa7yS_sl3Nbj2qcdDlEst-BTEgMXqbh2VOFd5OYofK8BXGEAzw8zjmCVcPnp5lmPouNfFtwx5ZE2qtaANicwMZh5l4jNygyrBnKvMKTvY6FbF8QUJl6RAkrWWNcIfWI5Bal17MneZi55oa2RNCGWbu2yjPh99ORXrVtgV8TIx8N_Vx/s253/Low%20spend%20001.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="199" data-original-width="253" height="311" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwgVVtX34Moasa7yS_sl3Nbj2qcdDlEst-BTEgMXqbh2VOFd5OYofK8BXGEAzw8zjmCVcPnp5lmPouNfFtwx5ZE2qtaANicwMZh5l4jNygyrBnKvMKTvY6FbF8QUJl6RAkrWWNcIfWI5Bal17MneZi55oa2RNCGWbu2yjPh99ORXrVtgV8TIx8N_Vx/w640-h311/Low%20spend%20001.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;"><div style="text-align: justify;">Frugally Challenged said. And what I have said is the time has come to have a low spend month for food. </div></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> I've had a Sainsbury delivery (to use up some vouchers) which has cost me £24.61 and I shall allow myself another £50 to last the month. I've got a fairly well stocked freezer and tins cupboard as well as quite a bit of fresh veg, so with a little ingenuity I should eat well. I don't want to let anything get too low as the gaps on supermarket shelves are a little worrying so I've allowed more than I usually do for low spend.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I've actually been doing quite well on curbing food spending. Last year my daily average food spend was £6.22 and so far this year it has been £4.32 which isn't bad in a time of rapidly rising prices. Things were a little out of hand last year, I must admit! However, I have started to go out for the odd meal so the daily average there has gone up from 7p in 2021 to 37p in 2022. Hardly a fortune even then and it will be going up considerably by the end of this month as I have a couple of catch-up lunches with friends. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I have a major (secret!) project in mind which is going to need quite a few pennies. Just cutting the food bill won't pay for it, but it will help!</span></div><div><p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p></div>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-41373123503798115992022-09-05T06:04:00.000+01:002022-09-05T06:04:01.868+01:00Comparing baskets<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /> Reducing my food spend has taken a lot of effort!

Frozen mushrooms are fine if you chop and open freeze them so you can get just a few from the bag.</div></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The leeks I gave away. I have leeks in my garden and a nagging gardener called Jack. 'Nuff said. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I also gave away the satsumas. I have loads of satsumas at the moment. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Brussels sprouts have been prepped, blanched and frozen. To be honest I like them better fresh but they are OK frozen and no way will I waste them. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The peppers were superb and are in the fridge to use during the week.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The pak choi was stir fried with some of the mushrooms and peppers and a few other things for my lunch today.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The potatoes are now in my light-proof potato bag in the root veg box. They will be used over the next few days.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The aubergine will keep a few days and will be used with tomatoes, onions and feta cheese as an aubergine bake on Saturday.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The apples went into the fruit bowl</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">And the grapes have disappeared.

At Salisbury I would have paid about £12.80 for that lot.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">In 2015 Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall (an English celebrity chef, </span><span style="background-color: white;"> television personality, journalist, </span><span style="background-color: white;">and campaigner on food and environmental issues) did a TV series called "Hugh's War on Waste" which made a big impression on me and I think on many others. It was one of many initiatives which publicised just how much food is being wasted at every point from farm to table. Several supermarkets were called out and shamed into responding to his criticism. Strong links were made between the fact that many people were struggling to feed themselves and yet supermarkets were over-concerned with the cosmetic appearance of the vegetables they sold. Food was being dumped and polluted with bleach to make sure no-one could eat it.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">Gradually supermarkets have realised that the bad publicity would lose them custom (and therefore profits!) and some now sell seconds marked "wonky". They have made links with food banks and schemes to get unsold food to those who need it.

The big thing is that I have real figures with which to work so I can see what I have been up to.

But I am also very aware that for a single person, it's not exactly brilliant.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">I'm seventy now and there are still things I want to do and some of those things cost money. (No, I'm not ready to be specific on this blog!) I want to get things under even better control, especially in the face of rapidly rising prices. I decided at the beginning of the year to aim for £5 per day. Food is one of life's pleasures for me so I don't want to squeeze that very definite source of pleasure too much. This year I am allowing myself £5 per day or £35 per week which is a very considerable reduction. In the first thirteen weeks of this year I have averaged £30.16. That sounds really good but as yet I am not eating out and the second half the year is always more expensive than the first. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Let's see how it goes. </span></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-62036626941721957532022-03-30T15:53:00.000+01:002022-03-30T15:53:06.791+01:00Doing a few sums<p style="text-align: justify;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnIfHMI1VmUbW4kjuhjq42zALKfXqCNR5ciUSklwiTM3nnoiueW5IxFssK69FmPjA9-7v5DBw6ysjIW0Tt4bVUf7_xfa9CNPOsr6D0bHw-lo7iDBxuGQSHUno1DGcM5qBzyg3ChhudBA7wh7s7nTWMuP7KMAn1TqXrORes72zuk2H2_SdvL8TtVs-A/s302/Sums%20001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="302" data-original-width="162" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnIfHMI1VmUbW4kjuhjq42zALKfXqCNR5ciUSklwiTM3nnoiueW5IxFssK69FmPjA9-7v5DBw6ysjIW0Tt4bVUf7_xfa9CNPOsr6D0bHw-lo7iDBxuGQSHUno1DGcM5qBzyg3ChhudBA7wh7s7nTWMuP7KMAn1TqXrORes72zuk2H2_SdvL8TtVs-A/w343-h640/Sums%20001.jpg" width="343" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">A couple of weeks ago I bought a kilo pack of chicken thighs from Lidl for £1.65. The thighs actually weighed 1080 grammes so seemed very good value. But when I came to remove the skin and bones I wasn't very impressed. Not only was there the thigh bone, there was also part of the backbone of the bird on each thigh. My kilo pack yielded just 540 grammes flesh. That means the meat was 3.05 per kilo.</span><p></p><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">This week I had a home delivery from Sainsbury and again bought a kilo pack of thighs and I got 1004 grammes thighs. Not quite so good as Lidl. Again I removed the skin and bones (no backbones this time) and this time got 720 grammes flesh so this time it was £2.57 a kilo. The thighs were bigger than the Lidl ones (but fewer thighs in the pack) and the absence of the backbone made them easier to bone. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Obviously my exercise was with just one pack from each shop, but it made me think. </span></p><p><br /></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-64001162511217723292022-03-07T08:27:00.000+00:002022-03-07T08:27:20.389+00:00Habits 3: inventories<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The first rule of being an efficient grocery shopper is checking what you need before you leave the house and it's a rule which at one time, I rarely kept. I would push my trolley around and seize on yellow sticker bargains with great glee. BOGOF grabbed me every time and I honestly thought I was a savvy shopper. It wasn't helped by having a huge kitchen and storeroom with two fridges and two freezers. Things were bought because they were "bargains" and that was my idea of being canny!</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiCcdf9u9l8Y2QJB7PrgXNDwj1WsiEYOTuFffmXoxQIUI0ZYazKGBD0Htm1XQIwz8oacPVIcBG_oofPKHxRPZ6Pl8cO4v29oAkkSX4UfQjni-GCM3V1fR4GQya-1chg7UC7zkVU7TH3-zaI1wBVgzOqnbxW4c8Z3JInYhdwvF68lPrA98hqD0FqWHYe=s579" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="503" data-original-width="579" height="348" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiCcdf9u9l8Y2QJB7PrgXNDwj1WsiEYOTuFffmXoxQIUI0ZYazKGBD0Htm1XQIwz8oacPVIcBG_oofPKHxRPZ6Pl8cO4v29oAkkSX4UfQjni-GCM3V1fR4GQya-1chg7UC7zkVU7TH3-zaI1wBVgzOqnbxW4c8Z3JInYhdwvF68lPrA98hqD0FqWHYe=w400-h348" width="400" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I have to admit that I'm a tad obsessive with spreadsheets, but my food inventories certainly pay off. I'm not good at crossing stuff off or adding items as I buy them, but every month or so I take everything out of my freezer, one drawer at a time, and list what I've got while making a note of anything which needs using very soon. Regular cleaning and sorting of the fridge helps to keep en eye on food stocks and avoid waste.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I don't menu plan but I do meal plan. What's the difference? Well, I batch cook and I make a list of everything I need to make several portions of a particular dish but I don't plan when they will be on the menu. I use both fresh and frozen vegetables but even when I buy fresh I often freeze some of the stuff I buy rather than risk it going to waste. </span></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-18064412964903497182022-01-06T20:04:00.002+00:002022-01-06T20:04:39.316+00:00Serendipity extended!<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEigT7uElM8JfTNDmqn1XV_6gQo_ulH0Q23NwUUFoG1jxhnfv0ROOttUFqwKtEfKFK9oceHuL4ti9YGiYzoMWPltWzwwBfU04eXojD6NygWmuuKEJhRyMSaF1PI3AS2cZ69JVWvOsz_liT4vY57oKs0PzE1s27TskAOCmsqeT3NFFc8IN7KZxxnA0yN5=s4032" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEigT7uElM8JfTNDmqn1XV_6gQo_ulH0Q23NwUUFoG1jxhnfv0ROOttUFqwKtEfKFK9oceHuL4ti9YGiYzoMWPltWzwwBfU04eXojD6NygWmuuKEJhRyMSaF1PI3AS2cZ69JVWvOsz_liT4vY57oKs0PzE1s27TskAOCmsqeT3NFFc8IN7KZxxnA0yN5=w300-h400" width="300" /></a></div><span style="font-size: x-large;"><div style="text-align: justify;"> Thank you for all the comments on serendipity cooking.

There's a slightly wilting pepper, the last four mushrooms, a couple of sticks of celery or whatever. Well, apart from the moral aspect of food waste, "whatever" cost money and I chose to buy it so it's going to get used. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">A check on my fridge revealed that I had carrots, onions, celery, and peppers which wouldn't last much longer. There was a box of chestnut mushrooms, an aubergine and some roast peppers trying to look as if they weren't there. There were fours eggs in a box and some garlic eager to be used.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjA4uNnHbTtT1ogDbj2Wet8NMrK7KdKt1JzP-_e8bn-UmtlQK5TYAKBYtwAU5_PIVpKe3dZrXplSLuNwwNjOzudUFtF9Ro1brnoURGRu2odrDz6tUc2Dmv-g066Hd5FX_izTM_3sjNMwRpauptXM0SqKt9BJf1rCJdd_EjtKXpxuFVvtwg-L-QcMlEU=s4032" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjA4uNnHbTtT1ogDbj2Wet8NMrK7KdKt1JzP-_e8bn-UmtlQK5TYAKBYtwAU5_PIVpKe3dZrXplSLuNwwNjOzudUFtF9Ro1brnoURGRu2odrDz6tUc2Dmv-g066Hd5FX_izTM_3sjNMwRpauptXM0SqKt9BJf1rCJdd_EjtKXpxuFVvtwg-L-QcMlEU=w640-h480" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I hadn't any bread or breadcrumbs in either the fridge or the freezer but I had a box of sage and onion stuffing mix in the food cupboard and there were lots of nuts left from Christmas.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">So I chopped the celery and onion and sweated them in a little oil with the garlic. I used the food processor and whizzed the mushroom, aubergine, nuts, peppers, carrots and stuffing mix and then added that to the softened celery and onions. I added stock and the eggs, mixed the whole lot and put it into a couple of lined loaf tins.

Would you mind if I just say I failed? </span></div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">I have a special habit which I indulge in at this time of the year. It's unsubscribing! No, I'm not planning on stopping following anyone's blog, but I have taken my name off all sorts of mailing lists.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Whenever I buy something on-line the various companies take that as permission to send me invitations to buy more and more stuff. Special offers. Money off. Great value for money. All very tempting but what it all boils down to is they want to part me from my money! Well, as far as I am concerned I prefer money to be in my bank account rather than theirs.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">When I want something I look around and find it and then leave it in the basket for a day or two while I think about it. As often as not the company will then offer me an incentive to buy - money off, free delivery, whatever. I also give myself thinking time to see if that is what I really want. Mailing lists are a way of getting us to shop without thinking.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">One word of warning: if you come across a scam e mailer it is better to consign the email to junk or spam - if you "unsubscribe" you will simply confirming that you are really there when they have been phishing. </span></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-25010837218302529782021-12-02T17:29:00.005+00:002021-12-02T17:29:58.939+00:00Back to the fridge<p><span style="font-size: large;"> After six days I still haven't needed to go shopping but with food supplies like mine that is no deprivation</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">The fridge has gone from this</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbbpsMnScahpmumZsy-Kfomscrf_x1K14GJDfeypAWMXxChT0XUFQv3xTWXJoLyH2bmZFqMNm0sYQCETDuDtjdtkkwAdbXvLqtr_b-5KK45gxFEjazWcp5EIFWVnXBEKSdpVeERb2YhPc/s2048/211126+fridge.JPG" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbbpsMnScahpmumZsy-Kfomscrf_x1K14GJDfeypAWMXxChT0XUFQv3xTWXJoLyH2bmZFqMNm0sYQCETDuDtjdtkkwAdbXvLqtr_b-5KK45gxFEjazWcp5EIFWVnXBEKSdpVeERb2YhPc/w300-h400/211126+fridge.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGO_olN6tGXOG00qD7E4ZSpwyU12Sww0KkHCYMz419IZavv_n8s58xzqk8ZPWRRRPD1Vn0jxGmIZv936NwaFkeu-fZUK5ddNAzL-8YEtQDZzLoqHtdN6t9sMX6eh_REE9LiMv_gaQGnqA/s2048/211202+fridge.JPG" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGO_olN6tGXOG00qD7E4ZSpwyU12Sww0KkHCYMz419IZavv_n8s58xzqk8ZPWRRRPD1Vn0jxGmIZv936NwaFkeu-fZUK5ddNAzL-8YEtQDZzLoqHtdN6t9sMX6eh_REE9LiMv_gaQGnqA/w300-h400/211202+fridge.JPG" width="300" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">to this<br /><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">There are definite gaps but I doubt if I will starve.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Today I tackled the butternut squash which had been bottom right in the first picture and I made soup, using the squash, an onion, two potatoes a carrot, a wallop of chopped ginger and a spoonful of honey plus stock.

I know this isn't a problem for most people but in a household of one person who doesn't eat breakfast cereal and drinks her coffee black, it can be difficult. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYcwFwLmQPIus8GPHumKRgSUUtXhZt6tnTtSPhJmzkxGUcK9bW1RgO06yrNwWgwrZ_2axUCknilX8SzdCw6YnNy0n2brPcpz-js4q1tk7bIBH-4I0myTzVL_427hysEoWdkRcYmgip8mQ/s2048/211128+cottage+cheese.JPG" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYcwFwLmQPIus8GPHumKRgSUUtXhZt6tnTtSPhJmzkxGUcK9bW1RgO06yrNwWgwrZ_2axUCknilX8SzdCw6YnNy0n2brPcpz-js4q1tk7bIBH-4I0myTzVL_427hysEoWdkRcYmgip8mQ/w640-h480/211128+cottage+cheese.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: x-large;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">I buy UHT milk to use for tea/coffee when guests call unexpectedly. If I know guests are coming I buy pasteurised milk. The UHT stuff comes in one litre containers but I can buy just a pint of pasteurised and sometimes even less. I can manage to use up the remains of a pint but a litre is a lot of milk!</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span>So I make cottage cheese. Heat the milk to just below boiling point, add a generous squeeze of lemon juice and stir. The milk will curdle. (IT IS NOT THE SAME AS LEAVING MILK TO GO OFF!) Leave it to cool a little then strain it. I use muslin inside my sieve. Leave it until all the whey (a colourless liquid) has drained off then put the cheese to chill in a dish in the fridge. </span>The whey can be used in baking.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">It does not have the same texture as a commercially produced cottage cheese but it has more flavour. You may want to add salt.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1849067128981431752.post-40298938537966703222021-11-27T16:40:00.000+00:002021-11-27T16:40:37.814+00:00No waste!<p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="clear: right; float: right; font-size: large; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="414" data-original-width="408" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghTpZfZPZUJg_CzqwHbm5Y2nwXH8teu9eZ6ztdXkwM9PC4Voas5hJn5X0lNloLB7xZHV8EYacIOFf4tpQZ_0nyuLFadQdY1J_UgnuFLH2TNuA8Z0lsZBxO8_T-StUBUwWG5ar9BySlECQ/w394-h400/Food+waste+003.png" width="394" /></span><span style="font-size: x-large;">Although my stated aim of doing this challenge is to keep food expenditure low for a few weeks, the real need is to minimise food waste. I think we've all become more aware of this issue over the past few years. Awareness of the need to respect the planet has been added to our consciousness of hungry people in our own country and abroad. Rising prices are driving the message home even in households with a "comfortable" income.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">The soup which I made yesterday from the lurking calabrese is lovely. I just sweated some onion in rapeseed oil, then added the calabrese and sweated that, added stock, partly vegetable and partly made from the chicken skin and bones from yesterday, then blitzed the lot. It is delicious. Today I had it with some of the bacon lardons which I cooked yesterday but the remaining soup portions will be served with either cheese or yoghurt. Just the job on a cold November day. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghTpZfZPZUJg_CzqwHbm5Y2nwXH8teu9eZ6ztdXkwM9PC4Voas5hJn5X0lNloLB7xZHV8EYacIOFf4tpQZ_0nyuLFadQdY1J_UgnuFLH2TNuA8Z0lsZBxO8_T-StUBUwWG5ar9BySlECQ/s414/Food+waste+003.png" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a></div><br /><p></p>Frugally challengedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10222391810215537820noreply@blogger.com6
