Bacon and rabbits on meatfree Monday

Now that I have your attenion: I am referring to the idioms so integral to English, and which just happen as I write. Perhaps, at some point, and as a plant-based lifestyle is adopted by more people, the language language will adapt. As languages which are dynamic constructs, do. More of that. Perhaps. Another time.

Now:

I know it's the third week in a row that wraps have saved my bacon (ha!) on a meatfree Monday, so sorry if this is boring. Especially if you remember that last week was been chilli. Too.

Well, the point, no, more than one, are:

It was a particularly long day, so I was grateful to have supper mostly done. Secondly, I have been rabbitting (oh dear...) on about storing things in jars and the difference in shelf life. This is another example.

These jars of chilli are 10 days old. Not only not a sign of any deterioration, but the parsley on top (literally) was still crisp.

I am doing more and more in jars. They don't work for the freezer - for obvious reasons - and where proper, genuine Tupperware, if one can afford it, remains king. If I could avoid all single use plastic, I would. I remember hardly any from my childhood (a looong time ago) including in packaging, and which tells me it's possible.

Lesson over. And...I am out. For the moment.

Until next time, be well
