Lizi in Japan – week 1

15/02/15: BBQ chicken with beans ā Reader's Digest's Healthy One-Dish Cooking http://www.amazon.co.uk/Healthy-One-Dish-Cooking-All-One/dp/027644406X This was really tasty and a great throw-it-all-in-the-pot meal, but it was definitely a different version of BBQ.

While the cat’s away… Mark’s week home alone
Mark I was left to my own devicesĀ this week while Lizi was in LA. Meal selection was going to be tricky as we both didnāt want to use up meals that the other would want to eat, so we came up with an elaborate plan!
