| Me and my brothers... in age order of course! |
I've started a list of ingredients that might be useful and worked out the cost for 10g of each. I reckon I'll probably need to go veggie for the week but might manage a rasher or two of bacon with my beans if I'm careful! There's a bowl of chick peas soaking - I plan to make Madhur Jaffrey's sour chick pea curry with them tomorrow - pricing spices and lemon juice is a bit complicated but I'll do my best.
...and then there's the TEA question! Bags or leaves? I think I'll use loose leaf tea and weigh out my rations for the week, then use a one-mug infuser thingy I bought ages ago from Whittards. Alice reckons a little washing line over my desk for drying tea bags to re-use would be more entertaining - true, but I think I'll get more cups from leaves.
I've realised today how little idea I have about the price of food I eat all the time - I don't usually need to think about it. What a privilege.
