Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Sounds yum @Smc ....

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Was... which of course is partially why I had too much. 😛 I've kept half of it for another night's dinner. It's a challenge buying the right amount of perishables to be able to neatly get through them before I leave. I've too often had really weird breakfasts on the last day here in an attempt to use up the last bits of whatever's in the fridge.

Won't hang around for long. Need to make my goodnight phone call to Hubby and younger daughter, and the tiny trickle of mobile phone Bluetooth internet I'm using can't handle both tasks at once. Goodnight all.

Goodnight @Determined

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

For tomorrow @Smc ....

We have taken to travelling with food, backwards and forwards.  Not something I would have done previously, but with all our moving about it saves food wastage, or trying to eat too much to finish things off .... or as you said, unusual breakfasts .....

Much will freeze before going into cases, or travel with an ice pack and esky bag, perhaps to be thrown into a soup or oven-bake at the destination house.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Can have a breather from not doing too much this morning - coffee break time - hooray.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Faith-and-Hope, I'm travelling with a backpack and a handbag, so am limited for space. I've got a few changes of clothes that I leave here to free up a bit of room, and I keep the pantry stocked with basic non-perishables. Some tinned vegs, flour, sugar, tuna, pasta, noodles, rice, dried fruit and nuts, snacks, coffee/choc drink. I brought with a small amount each of butter, cream and cheese in a very small freezer bag, enough English Muffins to cover brekky, and a few fresh vegs. I've got parsley and a few other herbs in the garden here, the orange tree is in fruit; the peas I planted last time aren't ready yet, so they'll be my green vegs on a later visit.

So far this time, bought perishables are; milk, small tub icecream, a pack of fresh tortellini, a piece of chuch steak and a sweet potato. Tortellini was last night's dinner and today's lunch, beef and veg stew for tonight's dinner. There's one meal's worth of tortellini left, and two meals of beef stew.That leaves me two meals short, so I'll use one of the mini tins of tuna in the cupboard with the remaining vegs and cheese. That should see me through neatly.

On the return trip, I find a travel bag or suitcase around the house and fill it with things I want to take home. Mum and Dad did a few bus tour holidays before their health went downhill, so there's a small stockpile of complimentary travel bags with the bus company's logo clearly visible.;)
