Quote from: BristolUK on November 27, 2011, 09:36:21 PMYou're a bit early. What are you having next month, hot cross buns and an easter egg?In honour of my JW friends, who don't celebrate Christmas, I will celebrate it as many times a year as I like, and I will bloody well enjoy it as many times as I like. But seriously, I have no idea why one of the churches myself and Mrs W go to had a Christmas dinner tonight. We will be apart on Christmas and possibly GOD pulled a few strings so we could spend time and have Christmas dinner together. I don't question the how or the why. I merely enjoy it as it is probably meant to be.

My step daughter doesn't like Sweet and Sour Chicken but the others do...so it becomes a two meal choice on those days.She does like szechuan chicken or shrimp but not curry; while my stepson does like curry but not szechuan. So today I used a Butter Chicken sauce mix - from Club House. I didn't bother following the whole thing, just mixed it with the 10% milk and added it to the pan where the rest of the chicken & veg was almost cooked, letting it simmer for a few minutes.I though I'd finally found something in between that both steps would like.Sadly, it was not to be. Less sadly it was heavenly. Really heavenly. Report to moderator Logged

They have pretty good food here, and good for you, too.

Yep. I saw it when Mrs BristolUK was in there.Just a bit weird to be ordering for a week when you might be out in a couple of days and, presumably, you get what someone else ordered if you make the mistake of being hospitalised part way through a week. Just kidding.

If it's convenience and decent taste you're after, the Michelina type things (not just the basic ones) are not bad. Not worth their normal price but Sobeys, Superstore and Shoppers often have them for a $ - sometimes less.They're not big, but two will be cheaper than that Hungry Man offer.No matter what day I find myself in Superstore, they have a good selection of nice crusty style or cheesy breads on a stand for half price.*Stick 'em in the freezer. When needed, break a piece off and microwave on defrost for 20 seconds at a time until freshened up and warm.A Michelina and a nice chunk of crusty bread - convenient and fills a hole for about $1.40. Bargain.*The square Ciabatta bread, cut into four and then sliced to give two thinner squares that fit in the toaster....absolutely fantastic toasted and buttered or garlic spread.
