        Got an Ocado delivery

        Looked online on the offchance yesterday and there were lots of slots from 5pm today.

        Just been emailed the receipt. One missing item (casarecce pasta) and three substitutions. None of which are show stoppers.

        I am wary of subbing Ocado Gold hot cross buns for Waitrose Essential though. The Ocado ones came out well rated in some taste test recently and I doubt the Waitrose Essential range will be as good. And some mafalda pasta has been swapped for the whole wheat organic version but still the same brand. Maybe that's subtle nudge to make my shopping healthier!

          On sale as well!
          Indeed - easter eggs have been reliably present on the shelves of my local supermarkets, and I've been panic-buying them. Trouble is I keep eating them. Nom nom..

              Indeed fry with butter, brown sugar and dilute with Brandy/Rum. Yum!! Cream optional.

                Or do what I do, and make Banana Coladas. You need coconut milk (1 tin) and some white rum (as much as you like/need) and some over-ripe bananas. Throw in a blender with some ice, and some pineapple chunks (fresh or tinned, it doesn't matter), and enjoy!
                It's my own trade-marked recipe, so it's for your personal use only...and if you make this for a lady, she will be impressed...

                    I checked our old Ocado acct, in the hope of resurrecting it (reset pwd etd) and it turns out we opened it in 2009 using the wifes old email acct. So we're stuck in the infinite queue of new customers.
