I hope I am committing a sin by starting a new thread but the other one is full and I enjoy it and the photos smile

I popped to the cheap farm shop on the way home from work to buy dog food and vegetables so I have made a sausage casserole with jacket potatoes. I normally put the potatoes in the casserole (I know wink ) but there was no room as I bought a rather nice leek grin it smells delicious smile

Last night we had a birthday celebration meal for my son with family members, I made Jambalaya and a favourite chocolate cake and ice cream for pudding.

Tonight is just us, and it's Friday so that means fish, which my husband likes to precede that with "catholic fish Friday", old habits die hard. We'll be eating M&S lightly dusted haddock, mashed potatoes, leeks, green beans and peas. We can't finish the chocolate cake, I've promised to save some for my grandson when they come for Sunday roast. Sadly my granddaughter won't be able to eat any, she's gluten intolerant but she's usually happy with strawberries, meringue and ice cream.
