Love a fruity bargain, well done sunshine, save a lime to slice into a nice cool drink too!

Oh, I love a bargain like that! Our local garden centre sometimes sells what they call 'soup boxes' for £5, which are full of veg - and sometimes some fruit - which is past its best, but still edible. I made two huge pots of soup from the last one - one leek and potato and the other butternut squash and sweet potato - as well as using the other veg in meals over the next couple of days, and chopping the remainder up to freeze.

Today I called into Lidl for a few bits.

I noticed by the tills fruit and veg boxes at £2.00each.

As there were so many I decided to get 2!

I have already made 3 jars of a tomato and red pepper ketchup,
Friday I will make mango chutney, sauerkraut and apricot jam. there will be enough raspberries and strawberries for breakfast for 2/3 days with some pears.
The avocados should be ripe by the weekend so we can use the lime and left over tomatoes to make guacamole.
This just leaves me with lots of plums some red peppers and lettuce.

I feel like I have won the lottery!💃💃💃💃💃💃
