So the maltesers are because were going to the cinema tonight with some free tickets! And the maltesers at the cinema are double the price so were taking our own. There are a lot of drinks in there which are unnecessary but help with sanity so totally worth it. I stocked up on sugar as 59p bag is cheaper than I've seen it in ages! Pocket tissues as we've hit cold season :(

 

Meal plan:

Mon - Roast chicken dinner

Tues - Leftover chicken chow mein

Weds - Sausage & chickpea pilaf

Thurs - Meatballs and spaghetti
Fri - Duck breast & veggies

Sat - sausage cobs
Sun - Out

 

The roast chicken will stretch 2 meals (possibly 3) and ill have the stoke for the freezer. Meatballs will be made from a pack of burgers. Friday night is date night so we have a special meal once the kids have gone to bed. I haven't fully planned the weekend yet but have a rough idea and plenty in the freezer to cover it. Lunch for us is usually sandwiches/leftovers/beans/egg on toast etc from whatever I have in or have made so I don't plan them out but I know I have enough in to hate it covered.
