Food Waste Friday / March’s Menu Plan
Looking out of the window this morning, I can see that March is well and truly on it's way, as is Spring. Spring is my favourite time of year, and Easter my favourite holiday. It fills me with optimism. The world is waking up. It's a fresh start. We're coming out of hibernation, out of our caves, and there is an abundance of energy. This year, personally ...
I Nearly Forgot Food Waste Friday!
I nearly forgot #FoodWasteFriday. The saving grace would be it isn't my week to host, it's The Frugal Girl's I'm so out of my routine, still. Things haven't changed much since this previous week. My excuse of being on crutches is starting to wear thin. I need to go hit the fridge. Have you checked yours yet today? ...
No Waste Tastes Great / Out Of Routine

I'm walking through it today. ...

Food Waste Friday / Call Me Irresponsible
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 ...
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 ...
No Waste Tastes Great / Happy Halloween 2014
It's just gone 7.30am in the UK, and as we have a busy day ahead I'm typing up this #FoodWasteFriday post in my PJ's. ...
No Waste Tastes Great / Back To Basics
It's been almost 4 years since I started participating in The Frugal Girl's Food Waste Friday. (Don't forget the hashtag! #Food WasteFriday) While taking part I devised my own Friday routine which I called; No Waste Tastes Great This routine may have evolved over the last 4 years, and is currently being changed once more - which I will post about ...
