Cooking, time out and trying to be frugal.

A second Bank Holiday weekend and what to do... We wanted to go out, but the truth was we were low on cash. Like everyone D and I have noticed prices go up and up over the last few months and so decided to take steps to save a bit of cash.

We checked on the veggies and they are growing nicely, so cooking up a store cupboard of stash was our next job.


D worked on a flan for deserts (2-3 meals) and some Foccacia bread (3 from one pack of ingredients and at less than a third of the price).


While I worked on some family sized Lasagnes (4-5 meals in that lot!) and


A tub of Hummus (about a weeks worth... I love hummus!)


All in all we saved about £10, just by making those bits ourselves. We also had some fun doing it... A nice way to spend time together.

We are planning our next cook-up day already.

What have you been cooking recently?
