Must admit have only used TM twice & that was to cook potatoes :)

I think the reason being I made up packs of marinade & marinated our meat before I left. A really good idea.

I will see how much I use it over the new year too, if its only been used for basic things, TM might not come next trip.

Am certainly looking at what I use & need for the next trip :)

Will keep a list on the ipad.

Hi Halex, may I ask did you vacum pack your meat to take away in the marinades?  we are going camping end Jan and I like the idea of taking the meat prepared.

Just a hint - don't vacuum pack your left over ham to freeze. I was about to do this and DS ( a butcher ) nearly collapsed, apparently it causes bacteria to grow. Put it in a regular freezer bag.

Mmmmm, ok, brought way too many  pantry items. Probably got through about 1/3rd ???

Its been hot, so not eating as much.

Cream Puffs idea of a list is great, tracking what I use & how much.  TM to chop eggs to make egg sandwiches & cook potatoes!! the trick was preparing everything before we left.  Be interested to see how much I use it the 2nd week :)

Also have a ww online order arriving tomorrow morning with our dairy & fresh salads etc.

H :)
