It did seem to rocket up in price a while back. But the discount superstores (like Aldi) and the supermarket own brands have brought the price back down a smidge.


A 340g tin of Princes corned beef now is around the £2.50 mark.

The same in the sainsburys own brand is around £2 and in their 'Basics' range, £1.50.

The price for fresh minced beef at Sainsburys is £3 for 500 grams standard mince , and £1.46 for 400 grams of the 'Basics' minced beef.

So, yeah. You can get fresh minced beef for less than the cost of corned beef.

But, that's based on Sainsburys and there are cheaper places to shop!

LOL - I wasn't working out much. Yes, that day was totally thrown in, but I am back on the horse.

Eggs and bacon. A treat for myself for working so hard lately. And now, to further the self-gratification (not like that, you pervs) I'm going back to bed for an hour or two. Huzzah!

It ended up being three hours. Apparently I needed it more than I thought. Anyway, turns out that breakfast was a mistake, but I didn't realize it until late afternoon. See, when I saw those eggs in the fridge, I thought to myself, "Gosh, those are getting old, better eat them before they go bad." Except I'd already had that thought a few days earlier, and planned a meal for last night that would use up the eggs. Which I now no longer possessed.

So I had to call the egg lady, who couldn't meet me at her house until 5:30, and after slogging through traffic to get home I decided I didn't have time to cook the planned meal after all. So we had leftover ribs, which the kids were perfectly happy with. The egg-utilizing meal will be tonight instead.

Oh, and breakfast this morning is granny smith apples with cashew butter. So freaking good. I feel bad eating up all the kids' cashew butter, but tomorrow's the weekend and Mr. Clod can make some more.

Well you can't expect one glass to last through the preparation, consumption, and post breakfast activities.

2 eggs over easy on Quiona and a dab of Pace's hot salsa, with 2 biscuits.

What's For Breakfast? - Rum. - Drinking Rum before noon, doesn't make you an alcoholic, it makes you a Pirate.
