It's Friday. It's Food Waste Friday. It's my week to host after being kindly invited to do so by Kristen. So wherever I am and whatever I am doing - Food Waste Friday happens.

No Waste Tastes Great 2015 Uncensored
Each Friday I participate in Food Waste Friday (hosting on alternate weeks when Kristen isn't - she is today so head on over and link up!) What's worked for me is having a Friday routine which I do come rain or shine (okay so maybe not last week but I had my reasons). This routine hasn't fundamentally changed in over 4 years. I'm walking through it today. ...
Food Waste Friday / No Waste Tastes Great 2015
Every week, for over 4 years now, I have participated in Food Waste Friday. I was introduced to Food Waste Friday by Kristen over at The Frugal Girl, who is the original inspiration behind it.

Food Waste Friday / Elf On The Shelf
There's an unexpected addition to my Friday fridge this week: It's an Elf On The Shelf... This is the last Food Waste Friday for me (and also Kristen I believe) before the New Year so I thought I'd add a little festive twist. What do you think? ...
A Chaotic Food Waste Friday
You may have noticed I haven't been around my virtual home much over the last week or so. You may not.

My decision to take Christmas off this year has already proved itself to be a good one. As Rachel said herself "Life happens ...
Food Waste Friday / Using Up Bread
Each week since March 2008, in order to motivate her to waste less food, Kristen The Frugal Girl, has posted a picture of any food that has gone bad over the last seven days. She found this embarrassing practice so helpful, to her, that she invited other bloggers to post their own photos, and Food Waste Friday was born. I started participating in October ...
Black Friday? Food Waste Friday!
We touched on the fact Black Friday has become big business in the UK, in the comments of yesterdays post. ("Happy Thanksgiving" to all the Guys from the US) I'm pretty sure last year was the first time I had ever heard the term 'Black Friday' used over here. This year it's exploded. Even small local businesses are running adverts featuring Black Friday ...

No Waste Tastes Great /I’m No Role Model
It's easy to mistake those who blog, as experts on a subject. I'm no expert, and I'm definitely no role model. When I was interviewed by The Guardian earlier this year, I hope I conveyed that. I'm a Mum, who is trying to improve her habits. particularly with regard reducing food waste by having a Friday routine. I'm also trying to reduce plastic waste ...
