I think I will do spaghetti and meatballs but we'll see. Husband has a new
job now with new hours and since he started it, he has rarely been eating
meals here. I think he is getting breakfast and lunch at work but he
doesn't want dinner come dinner time. So this is rather screwing up our
meals. Nobody ate the meal that I made yesterday so that is still in the
fridge.

I am also trying not to buy much food now. I did buy a package of meatballs
with no dairy or egg so technically I can eat them. But I may not like
them. That remains to be seen. I have a cupboard full of pasta so would
like to use some up. I will probably bake bread too.

I have been finding a lot of very good food deals, so I will buy that which
I get a deal on and also perishable things. It's time to let the stockpile
go down. I don't need to keep as much during the warmer months.
