Yesterday, I collected these plates & bowls. They match my favourite tea mug although "my" bee flies horizontally! I thought of you SC.Wink

Today was a cupboard clearout - all food in date for once!. Tins of soup, baked beans, chickpeas, potatoes & rice pudding, chicken meatballs in sauce, pasta sauce and cornflakes, rich tea biscuits, pasta, salmon paste. 

I can almost predict the items that will be cleared out of someones cupboards. There's always soup, beans, chickpeas, potatoes, rice pudding (usually tomatoes and tinned peaches.) Problem is - these are the tins that will loiter in my cupboard too!

I do like your new crockery. Very nice.

Just been to the £5 Pantry as they'd been given lots of food with a short expiry date. Collected some Cheese, Quorn fillets, some Tesco party food, Soreen malt loaves, chocolate brownies, lots of bread & croissants, crisps, orange juice, cans of Tango, tangerines with leaves, lemons, carrots, avocado, portobello mushrooms, Uncle Ben's Korean rice & two tins of tuna.
I'll give some bread and croissants to my 90+ year old neighbour tomorrow.

I called at the Church yesterday much later then usual and was surprised how much was still available.

Came home with 2 rather nice 'Halkidiki and Kalamata olive Breads' not something I've had before.

I really like those Olive Breads, Bren. Lovely with cheese -- like a poor man's pizza.Big Grin

Veggie I like them toasted then spread with butter. The majority of the loaves have been sliced and frozen.
