Am I the only one who hates Christmas?
"Alan" wrote in message ... In message , Baz wrote Unfortunatly it's not that simple, at least not this year as milk(even uht), I purchased a "box"[1] of UHT fully skimmed milk cartons in mid November knowing that once the media report only 3 more shopping weeks to Christmas much the general population go potty and buy 3 or 4 times more than they need or can use. A box at a time is my usual purchase of UHT milk throughout the rest of the year. -- Alan news2009 {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk Something else I cannot get my head round is a statement on the lines of 'Nearly 45% (or some such huge figure) of all the food we buy is thrown away as waste'!!! Not in this house! We cook what we know we are going to eat. Peelings etc go in the compost heap. 'Left overs' ...... a rarity in this house, is put into Bubble and Squeak, the soup pot, the hot pot etc., or such as an Apple Crumble, eaten the next day warmed up in the Micro Wave etc etc etc. I was brought up during the war and then my parents bought an hotel, so I was brought up to be 'frugal' if that is the right word ;-) My daughter and son in law have just sold their very big hotel. They didn't make their money by wasting food. Pru Leath used to 'help out and advise' when a restaurant was in difficulty. The first place in the establishment she visited was the dustbins. To see how much was being thrown away. How much food do you throw away? Mike -- ....................................
