30 September 2015

September round up

It's been a funny month - not nearly as much cooking as I normally do, largely because I've taken on some private tuition work, and this keeps me busy a little later in the afternoon. Between that and the things the kids have to do in the evening, there's not a lot of time for cooking on Monday- Thursday. Thursday was always a no-cooking night because everyone has to be different places at different times, most of them around dinner time - but poor old Monday through Wednesday are going to have to be sorted in other ways.

We've tried a few options, and I suspect it will continue to be a mix of kids cooking, Geoff cooking, pre-cooking and eating leftovers on those days.  Really, it's surprising it's lasted this long, our ability to (most night) eat dinner with most of the family.
