Plan A was Cajun chicken and mash. They were those pre-marinade things from snasbods and a quick taste test confirmed they were like rancid butter

Max enjoyed them. Not sure what they're doing to the chicken lately but I don't like it.
Plan B was leftover lamb and pearl barley stew, it's been in the fridge for a while and had developed that overly lamby smell, better not risk it - so Max also enjoyed that too.
I then spent longer than I'd like to admit pondering the actual difference between egg noodles and tagliatelle, eventually ended up settling on a peanut butter and nutella sandwich.
Normal service will resume tomorrow with a HM pizza - probably.
