I've got two Hello Fresh recipes and I don't fancy either of them. DS is having tea at his friend so it's just me and DH. Today is payday. What should we have?? What are you having??

I'm making cheese fondue for one! Kids are eating pizza now, DH is ill and in the dressing gown of doom and doesn't feel like eating... shame!! So I have a camembert and a whole seeded baguette to scoff, might even open a bottle of red!

DH is making the first chilli of the season! Can’t wait. It’s been in the oven since this morning 😋

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 22/09/2023 16:45

Payday for me too!

We are having oven crap because I've a pounding headache and my husband is out so I really can't be bothered!

Losttrackofmynames · 22/09/2023 16:45

Grab food. Basically I can't be bothered so kids can help themselves to stuff from the fridge/cupboard

Badleg89 · 22/09/2023 16:46

I'm all alone for dinner this evening so having some prawn gyoza with noodles, soy sauce, beansprouts and spring onion. Just using up some bits

LemonPeonies · 22/09/2023 16:47

I've ordered fish and chips. Been living off spag bol leftovers all week 😅

HeyMicky · 22/09/2023 16:47

DD is having loaded potato skins and DH is making a chicken curry for us. I have a cold so I want a decent whack of chilli

Reduced shell on prawns from lidl.

Undecided on whether to do a chilli, garlic, butter sauce and heat them in it or just eat them as they are.

Also tempted to make bread for the saucy prawns and put a bottle of wine in the freezer.

My car failed its mot today and is going to need work and we're skint and I can't take much more bullshit.

But I have a wedding to go to tomorrow so dont want to be hungover, I never drink now so that, with wheat will fuck me up.

My life can just go fuck itself today.

Unfortunately my payday isn’t until Monday. Tonight it’s pizza (home made, before the mumsnet UPF police get to me) and wine. Lots of wine. It’s been a long, wet week.

felisha54 · 22/09/2023 16:57

We're going for an Indian.

Floralnomad · 22/09/2023 16:59

We have a mobile fish and chip van in our area on a Friday and it’s really good so we are having that .

CurlewKate · 22/09/2023 17:00

We're having linguine with mushroom sauce. My current favorite. I'm so looking forward to it!

TomatoSandwiches · 22/09/2023 17:00

Roasted chicken legs with roast potatoes, green beans with bacon and garlic mushrooms and a light herby pan sauce.

Comtesse · 22/09/2023 17:01

Antipasto style - all sorts of lovely Italian delicacies. And birthday cake cos it’s my birthday!

Ok why have I never thought of doing this? Fondue for one definitely on the list!

Myneighboursarewankers · 22/09/2023 17:03

I’m pregnant a suffering with awful heartburn so it’s a bottle of gaviscon for dinner for me (joking). We had been unwell all week so dinner will be something boring like soup and bread

Homemade pizza and wine...standard Friday night dinner in our house

Greensleeves · 22/09/2023 17:07

We're going night fishing, so I've made chilli cheese pasties and spiced orange muffins to take with us. Big flask of coffee to go with it.
