September

It's started. A week after the schools are back.

I didn't check any of the use by dates but I'm not sure I want to get stuff for three months time right now. I prefer my actual, real, ingredients: preservative proportions to be a bit higher than that.

Lots of bitty chores today. Bagging and freezing vegetables (beans mostly), buying (dairy free) food for No.1  to eat while she's cat sitting for us next week, putting away some of the (dusty) piles of clothes lying around, tidying the greenhouse and watering the tubs. That sort of thing. 

I think I'm cooking butter chicken for tea, but I'm not sure how many for yet so I haven't really thought about it.
