Each month, I write out a menu, stock take fridge, freezer and cupboards to make a shopping list.
I try to be very good where the freezer is concerned but usually end up only 80% correct by the end of each month. Tiresome to forget to cross things off, but I put it down to old age!
Just done the indoor and outdoor ones, all up to date and must do better this time around. Menu is varying slightly as we eat a lot of pasta and are trying to use less.
We made food for Ruby yesterday so she is set for at least three weeks now. All dog classes are cancelled but we can still order raw food when and if necessary.
I now have all my seeds and sowing compost. A big Perspex sheet is on raised bed 3, warming the soil to start a little earlier than normal.
My taste tomorrow is to set some seeds going. I'm trying to make what I've got go as far as possible in the hope this madness passes.
ReplyDeleteAnything fresh including veg seedlings will be a bonus.
DeleteBest of luck with those seedlings. I have a similar system in place here for food and supplies and it generally works well.
ReplyDeleteThanks, will do my best.
DeleteYou are MUCH more organised than I!

Need to know what weird and wonderful meals I can plan.
DeleteWe decided when we moved here just under 3 years ago as we were getting older we wouldn't have a veg patch.. ha ha now we're sowing veg seeds in doors and hubby is building the surround for a raised bed.
ReplyDeleteThat’s why we changed to 4 raised beds a few years ago. We grow toms, beans, carrots beetroot, lettuce and radish. Plus loads of fruit. Saves my back enormously.
