This year's new year's resolution - once a week cook something completely different for our evening meal. I have a cupboard full of recipe books but every day we eat the same old things so I'm aiming to be more adventurous. Hope I can stick to it although it's easier than it sounds cos my husband is so fussy!!! He's improved over our 20 odd years of marriage though. When I put something different in front of him he looks at it tentatively, then looks at me and says "OK I'll give it a go - just don't tell me what's in it until I've eaten it!"

Good on you with the nicotine lozenges seanio - just don't start eating sweets or biscuits as a substitute! If you do, next year's resolution will be to lose weight. He he!!
You deserve to be congratulated for going without ciggies though - well done.

Here's another resolution I made a couple of years ago and we have stuck to it. It does help to cut down the cost of the weekly shopping bill.

I keep a pad and pen on the kitchen worktop. When I run out of anything I write it on the list. If any of the family think we are running short of something they add it to the list.

Every Thursday night I work out the menus for the following week, check the cupboards, fridge and freezer to see what I'm short of and add these things to the list.

That way, when I go shopping on Friday I DO NOT get sidetracked, I just buy what we need.

It took a bit of getting used to but once we all got into the routine I found I saved money on my shopping bill. If you're finding things a bit tight in the credit squeeze why not give it a go?
