Day 23 - Finally going bananas ....

Porridge again for breakfast.

Porridge + cuppa - 11p

Mary was working from home so I nipped back for our soup alternative .... boiled egg and toast. The toast was from the bread we got reduced yesterday and was loads better than the 45p skinny slices we'd had for the rest of the month.


Egg and Toast - 8p

We were also able to finish off the pancakes from yesterday with a wee cuppa.




Pancake + cuppa - 3p

Tonight's dinner was the turkey (pork?) and penne pasta.


Turkey and pasta + diluting juice - 47p

After dinner we had our first banana since January. It's amazing the things you take for granted like a banana.  We tend to think nothing about sharing a bunch between 2 people over a week. Tonight we shared one banana and half a packet of custard between us. I cooked it with some butter and butter as it was till a bit hard. Was nice but I can't wait to be able to enjoy a whole banana to myself next week. We've totally missed the fresh fruit. Such a simple thing and something a lot of us take for granted every week.


With the custard.


Banana + custard - 13p

We did feel a bit peckish later and although we probably didn't need it we had the portion of nuts we had allocated ourselves for tonight.

Peanuts - 4p (actually 3.4p)

Total for the day 86p each.
