Waste not, want not.

I'm very careful about using up all the food I buy, Steve isn't, he buys mainly junk and party food. Fortunately it is mostly frozen but he will cook a tray full of stuff and then not eat it all. He tries to persuade me to eat his leftovers but I'm not a dustbin, so I refuse.

Today I've cleared out the fridge, collected all the ends of the assorted cheeses and grated them all along with the leftover bread. I've grated them all together and frozen a big bagful that will now be used to top an assortment of dishes.

Next on my list is prepping any veg left in the fridge drawer, some of the veg will be turned into soup, some will be served with other meals.

I like your waste not want not attitude - I do this myself but my dearly beloved doesn't - He says that he's " not in the mood for" whatever needs using up - Plus a habit he has gained and refused to tell a dr about is that he coughs oddly and throughout eating a meal but can gobble up chocolate biscuits and tarts - with no problem x
