It’s Friday. It’s Food Waste Friday. Or even #FoodWasteFriday
I’d hoped this week I’d be hosting over at my new blog. I even thought about throwing a little blogwarming party. Alas no. It’s still not ready to move into.
Hence I have gone a little quiet. The more content I keep putting here, the more I have to then move again. It’s a little like packing up your home and then going on a shopping spree for new soft furnishing and adding to what you need to boxΒ up.
However I cannot miss Food Waste Friday when I am hosting. Kristen trustingly asked me to host each alternate week when she didn’t. It isΒ a great honour, I remember clearly how privileged I felt when she e-mailed me to ask whether I would like to. There was no hesitation in accepting her kind offer.
And onto my fridge… I am so tempted to film it. Hmmm have I any storage on my phone?
Simply Being Mum’s Friday Fridge
Yep I have storage! So here we go. Note that there are certain words I say that really accentuate my Midlands accent – ‘stranger’ being one of them. I’m 100% sure that my accent has got stronger since binging on Peaky Blinders. Have I mentioned I’m a HUGE Peaky fan? Not got the bug yet? Check out the Series 2 trailer. Series 1 is available on NetflixUK currently.
How’s your fridge looking this Friday? This #FoodWasteFriday
As always a huge shout out to Kristen aka The Frugal Girl the original inspiration and founder of Food Waste Friday.

I adore your accent, I’m afraid you’d shriek if you heard mine…South Texas…
Simply Being Mum says
That’s how it works though isn’t it? we all dislike the sound of our own accent? Interestingly since watching Peaky Blinders I’ve developed a new found appreciation of mine! I’m sure I would love yours. Maybe one day blog comments will be spoken. It probably isn’t that far away.

Jo, you make Food Waste sound so… distinguished, lol! I love your accent as well π I published my Food Waste Friday post this morning. I’m laid up with a bum knee, though, so I wasn’t able to clean my fridge as I wanted so I know there are a couple of things that didn’t make it. They’ll appear on next week’s post. It’s kind of annoying to know that I will definitely have some waste to report next week though π http://imperfectlyfrugally.blogspot.com/2015/05/food-waste-friday-51515.html

Hoping the knee improves soon – heading on over to yours now!

I always love it when you do a food waste video. Hearing your voice is awesome π
I had a great save no-waste-tastes-great dinner tonight, as grocery day is now Monday. All leftover veg were turned into a quiche (carrots and capsicum with feta and some leftover sour cream) with broccoli and a basil pesto/sundried tomato pesto/cream cheese dip that was going to go past it’s best before date this week. It was followed up with an apple fruit sponge to use up some very old Granny Smith apples that were still in surprisingly good condition!
Unfortunately, this doesn’t quite make up for the almost full head of lettuce and several small capsicums that met the bin this week. We were all sick this week and off our food, so some things didn’t get eaten. All I want when I’m sick is chocolate, ice cream and cheese on toast!
