Feed an birdie seems to be a good start in general. (Still tuppence a bag… bags is not as large as they used to be though.)

One of my Recoverin’ Dishes, wot I do not eat when there’s a Fish in the house, is melty cheese on top of baked beans.

I used to be v fond of the odd baked bean. One of us, sadly, has changed.

I also had a sneaking fondness for Heinz spag bol once upon a time. Again, no longer, but the Oaf adores it.

When I was a small sparrer there was a jar of (dried) alphabet pasta for Special Occasions.

It seems that now it’s either in 'orrible tomato sauce* or expensive (£6/kg at best).

* yes, the same 'orrible tomato sauce that I’m quite happy with on baked beans. Am I inconsistent? Very well then, I am inconsistent. I am large, I contain gin.

It used to be a lot more reasonable in proper Italian delis. She said helpfully.
I wasn’t allowed it as a Guslet. On reflection, the parents probably had a point [grinnity].
I believe one can also get (small) dinosaurs in tomato sauce.

Tinned spaghetti on toast used to be a popular ‘pick me up’, although never my thing. My Mother’s macaroni cheese was wonderful, but that was the main event, or with salad, not as a beast of a side dish.

Some of the commercially produced Martyr sauces in these tinned products are vilely sweet & unpleasant.

Inedible, for me. Sis has always enjoyed baked beans (she is an excellent cook, but…) and also tomato ketchup. Kakkity-yak.

Anyhoo - hugs for Carinthia’s Monday horribleness and fuzzy ones for a teeny sparrer’s poorliness. Best dreams, all,
