Coronavirus Food Tips – eat well and stay healthy
We went to do our weekly shop yesterday and were utterly gobsmacked from the moment we walked in the store!

Being very keen on using leftovers I have already written several posts on these subjects so, instead of repeating myself here are links to everything I think might help in these worrying times.
