What's for dinner/tea?

So, I overestimated how much jam you can put in a jam tart (I've not made any for years), also as the middle one emptied its contents all over the fingers on my left hand, we now don't have to fight over who gets the extra one....

Proof that nothing ever goes to plan!

Saturday night was chippy tea!

Sunday night we made Aribiatta for the fam which went down a treat!

Tonight we had pie and mash!
I tried the M&S plant kitchen one - not very impressed, pastry was very chewy and inside was like a ratatouille which although tasty is s bit odd with mash and gravy!

Takeaway, on a school night...

Sweet potatoes with a homemade chickpea curry mix topped with toasted pumpkin seeds!

Stuffed!!

Off the the pub to celebrate the end of the school year! As well as the students I'm definitely missing the end of year presents! I usually make it out alive with a few bottles of wine and boxes of chocolates!! Gutted!

I'm not a pizza, pasta or chip fan, but the rest of the family love all 3, so I try to fit in (sometimes) this is probably the only one I actually 'like', I never eat the crusts, just the middle, and I usually make them all eat a massive salad with it to make up for the unhealthyness.

I was overruled again today, 1 cola pizza, 1 meat feast.... No salad in sight.

Interesting. I've had tortilla wrap based pizzas for my dinner (lunch) this week.

Spaghetti Bolognese, made with pork mince instead of beef. Onion and garlic sauce with loads of added garlic. Luckily I'm not snoggin the face off anyone for a bit! Made enough for 2 days. Would normally feed 8, including the spaghetti, did us 2 fat burgers.

You can never have too much garlic.

As will often happen to people deeply involved in the catering industry, I often find myself fed up of seeing food, when it finally comes to eating something myself.

Keeping an All You Can Eat buffet going for the entire hours of daylight is a little tiring, I find.

Medium-sized son used to make these, with a tortilla wrap, or a flat bread, something he learned when he managed Chiquitos (the Stafford one that never, appeared), I'm still not a fan, I would rather have cheese on toast.
