My plan was slightly stymied by a Sunday lunch out today with parents and bro plus lass, but I’ve just turned all the remaining spuds in the house into mash, and bunged it in the freezer – there’s enough for for two meals for two. Then I cooked up a soup from a couple of onions and all the carrots and courgettes with a couple of oranges, plus lentils for thickness, and a vat of coriander. Enough for a light supper tonight following the lunchtime piggery, and at least one or two lunches in the week.

I cheated slightly and palmed off a bunch of cooking apples my colleague donated onto my dad, as he’s going through a wine-making phase. Now I just need to get through the rest of the salad and somehow trough my way through an enormous amount of fruit. Fruit salads for breakfast, perhaps, with a splash of yogurt.
