00:14hello there folks and a very warm festive welcome as usual back to what's for tea
00:19and our wee family food shop for this week and i do hope that i find you well
00:23and you had a brilliant christmas but as i'm filming this this is actually christmas eve
00:29but by the time you watch this it's going to be the 27th so christmas will have been and gone
00:35but i
00:35do hope you had a wonderful christmas and this is just bits and bobs that i needed we've got the
00:40majority of what we need so this is just extra bits and bobs but i did need some cheese so
00:46i picked up
00:46a block of cheese which was an offer and then all the veg was down to 15p which i didn't
00:52realize at
00:53the time but when i paid or when they took the money you know it was only 15p so carrots
00:57and sprouts 15p
00:59you really can't complain and then my usual actamel as well which are just probiotic shots and
01:05apparently good for your gut health but how would you know but i do like the way they taste
01:10and then some french fries as well just for a change from my usual chunkier chips we're going
01:17to be having chips a couple of times and then some potato croquettes as well just to go at the
01:22side
01:23of something and because we're having so much meat recently i decided to get a couple of meat-free
01:28options i've never seen these before but i thought they'd be a nice alternative to you know standard
01:33beef burger so these are the richmond meat-free quarter pounders and i also picked up a bag
01:38of salad as well and then some rolls as well because we always have bacon rolls on christmas
01:45morning it's just a bit of a tradition love a bacon roll and then some brioche rolls as well
01:50for those meat-free quarter pounders and then i needed some diluting juice or squash whatever you
01:56like to call it and this was on offer so i picked up the robinsons and then these are the
02:00sweeteners
02:01that i've been having over the last few weeks but i think these are really expensive but they're the
02:05closest thing to sugar that i have found and there's zero calories in them which is fab a couple of
02:11blocks of butter and then a small pack of the stuffing as well we're going to be having chicken and
02:16stuffing sandwiches which i thought was quite a nice idea and the second meat-free option are
02:22these richmond meat-free sausages we'll probably have these with mashed potato and onion gravy so
02:28yeah looking forward to those and this is the chicken for the chicken and stuffing sandwiches
02:32that we're going to be having and this is the bacon that we're going to be having tomorrow morning
02:37for our annual bacon rolls it's not just a one you know it's not just a once in a year
02:43thing
02:43honestly but we do always have bacon rolls at christmas and then a sherry trifle for boxing day
02:49and then some beef olives as well which we'll have throughout the week at some point and then we're
02:55going to be having fish and parsley sauce and mashed potato so i picked up the chunky haddock loins but
03:01i
03:01didn't realize when i ordered them they're actually skin on which really puts me off i don't like skin
03:08on fish so i will need to try and get this off not that it makes any difference really but
03:14it's just
03:15something about it just puts me right off and we're going to be having apple pie and ice cream so
03:21i picked
03:21up the gelato and this is the apple pie here which looks lovely and i know it's really easy to
03:27make your
03:28own apple pie but i'm just going to be that you know so busy that busy so busy and then
03:33some after eight
03:33mints as well which is a christmas staple and then a couple of boxes of decaffeinated
03:39edel grey tea for mr what's for tea and then a big bag of manis pipers as well and then
03:46some bananas
03:47and for some reason i've ended up with a lot more than i ordered but that's fine and then a
03:51swede as well
03:52which will go at the side of the steak pie i imagine so yeah one swede or turnip or rutabaga
03:59whatever you like
04:00to call it and then a couple of baked beans or tins of baked beans for the cupboard and then
04:05some of
04:06some of mr what's for tea's marmalade which i really don't like but he has this every morning
04:12on toast but that's everything that we're going to need for the next few days so thank you so much
