Dad has been complaining that we only eat what Mum and I like recently.
Not true, because Mum & I stopped cooking together about 2 months ago.
And I have been eating separately in this time - see weight loss chart for verification.

But instead of challenging his assumption - he is in his 70th year after all - I offered Mum spag bol this week as a sop. Now, she loves it when I cook - she doesn't have to cook AND I wash up as I go along. The usual deal is one cooks and the other cleans up, so there is far less work when I cook (also because I'm of a one-pot style).

So it's turkey mince (already bought and in the freezer) and an Aldi vegetable sauce. Aldi is a cheap European supermarket, but I'm not gloating over what the sauce cost me, it's the fact it's low fat and loaded with veg (carrot, courgette and peppers) and he thinks he's getting away with something because he's getting meat and shop-bought sauce and pasta (hehehe).

Regardless, he'll enjoy it, and that's really what's important.
