Curve balls

[Eileen505]

Tonight my plans fell apart. We had a meeting planned for early evening so held our evening meal back. However, we were kept waiting and waiting for over two hours by which time I could not be bothered to cook. My husband had something from the chip shop which I resisted but I had no contingency plan so i have picked on at bits and pieces. Not good. So.... I have learned I need to have an emergency plan for when life throws you a curve ball. I am going to buy/make some meals to keep in the freezer ready to zap in the microwave when things don't go to plan. Day 3 has not gone well but I have learned so I am not going to count it as a disaster.

What a great attitude, Eileen. Good for you!

I'm a great believer in freezing meals, for those last minute changes of plan

not very nice of your husband to go to the chippy but congratulations on resistant the temptation to nick some of his chips- I am not sure I could have done- unless he covered them in brown sauce which I hate!!

[Eileen505 in reply to RG07]

Haha. It doesn't sound very supportive does it! But in his defence - he is - he is my rock. Good idea for the sauce - I'll remember that one in future ;).

Well done Eileen for your restraint and for not letting a curve ball ruin everything. Home made frozen meals are brilliant for times like this.

Good luck

Well done for not giving in and getting something from the chip shop, good for you

Freezing your own made food is such a good idea and saves time.

Have a good week
