Lunchtime Choices

Re: Lunchtime Choices
I had a delicious turkey curry, made with the leftovers of Thanksgiving turkey, with onions, tomatoes and flavoured with garlic and ginger, with fenugreek, cumin, coriander, fennel and mustard seeds, some curry leaves, dried chili peppers, cardamom pods, and a garam masala that I can't remember what I blended to make. And some spiced rice. Mmmmmm.

Well, not really. If you have enough food for two days then you have enough food for two days regardless of when it was cooked. It was the notion of cooking more than was necessary to stay alive for a dinner and then having the remainder as a lunch, that's what made me think of Richard Branson or the Queen or Mick Jagger, you know, rich people.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
no, frugality it was (needs must, as a zero-income household...) that led to the acquisition of a larger-than required turkey, knowing that it's cheaper per pound over 15lb, and that it would do Thanksgiving lunch on the Sunday, sandwiches for Monday and Tuesday, half a dozen lunches' worth of curry to go in teh freezer, stock for three lots of soup (butternut squash and apple; leek & potato; pumpkin) and not an ounce wasted. If that's overt affluence I must be richer than I thought
You, on the other hand, are a troublemaker! Novo says so. An oven indeed. Electrical appliances, whatever next!
