Hey! 👐1) Monday night's tea was one of those meals that's basically a throw it all in the dish, add some sauce and hope for the best kind of meal.Miss Frugal made her first solo Sunday dinner for me on Mother's Day as a treat and she over-estimated massively the number of potatoes we needed which meant that we had a bowl of boiled potatoes in the fridge … [Read more...]
