Nee, naa, nee, naa, nee, naa . . . . milk police here, just popped into say thanks Justin, I bought this for the first time over the weekend - golly gosh, tastes like real milk, instead of bilge water!
So you can get decent milk in a Supermarket. Thanks for the tip :)

Sainsbury's do remarkably decent Jersey milk.Quote:

AI seems to reckon there is a bit of a backlash against bastardised, destroyed milk fat cells in water. I only hope it is right;)
Just the boys for dinner tonight as wife’s turn to see RAYE at the O2 with daughter, so my son’s favourite, Spag Bol.

Looks good - but no veg?
Onion, celery, carrots and mushrooms all in the sauce, Barry - the secret way to get veg into kids! :lol:
5th of the 5 a day was garlic bread. [emoji16]
Sticking with Italian food:
Mushroom risotto with asparagus, leek, broccoli and green beans
What no meat? I sometimes go vegetarian from time to time. :)
You definitely win in the vegetable stakes as usual, Barry! We try to have one veggie and one fish dinner a week, but not always easy to come up with recipes everyone likes, especially as wife and son are very picky on texture, and hate anything like lentils or chickpeas. But I can’t go wrong with mushrooms!
If you count eating eggs as being vegetarian, then yes, I too eat one fish and one 'vegetarian' meal a week. My partner is an icthiophage (fish eater), so we eat quite a bit of fish: usually seafood such as king prawns or shrimps, but sometimes sea bass, haddock, plaice or cod.
Also, despite my moniker, I try to have a couple of days a week that are alcohol free.
I decided to do “Dry January” again this year, then when February came I thought I might as well go until Valentine’s. Then I thought my birthday, 17th Feb, which coincided with Shrove Tuesday, so then I thought I’d extend it for Lent. Easter has come and gone, and I still haven’t had any alcohol at all!Quote:
