Hi friends,
Somebody
asked me how I can possibly say my grocery bill can be cheap whilst I shop at
Waitrose and buy Duchy’s organic meat. I have never said cheap but I would say
that the cost performance of my food bills are pretty good.
Come on, you
know what I am doing for living. Off course I think about “investment vs
performance” when it comes to money, especially when it is my money. ;-)
This is the
shopping on Friday.
And the
receipt. It came as £9.78.
OK, the
minced meat from Duchy’s could be diabolically priced but it is cost “performance”
I am after, not just cheap stuff.
Talking of
cost, this is one of my star buys. These baby leaves come with soil in a
planter and lasts for days. It is only £1. Far fresher than the pre-packed
salad leaves which don’t last long once you open a bag.
Breakfast
this morning.
If rolls are relatively fresh, cut it half and toast them with a frying pan
for few minutes. They will be crispy and warm but still soft. Very nice for burger
bans. (If you use a toaster or an oven, they will be dry.)
Then spread some mayonnaise and French mustard. Yummy.
The soup was
made of chicken stock cube, thinly sliced onion and egg. I know it sounds
weird, but trust me it was tasty, extremely easy and quick to make (I even
hesitate to use the word “cook” as it was hardly cooking.). I should have taken
some photos, but forgot…. Put everything in a soup cup and cook in a microwave oven.
With soya
yoghurt & my usual rose & pomegranate cordial. Happy breakfast. Thanks for reading.
