I made myself a full roast beef dinner, just for me. Aunt Bessie helped me with the roasties and the Yorkies but the beef was in for about 4 or 5 hours and the carrots and sweetcorn were still growing when the beef went in!
He had pizza and spaghetti.
Then he had yoghurt and I had a Cornetto.
chippy chunks (home fried squares of spuddy) and eggs, with tommy sauce and some bread to dip in me yolks....oooooh it was lovely....
gingerbread whirl for afters...they're sooo small!!!!!
Someone gave me these this morning (amongst other stuff that I passed on to others)
These carrots were enormous, weighed 7lbs.
It took me ages to peel and slice them....
and just as long again to blanch them, bag them and put them in the freezer!!
It said on youtube that they blanch and cool more evenly cut like that.
I freeze the sweet corn just as it is, it doesn't need blanching.
Me neither (hence the you tube vid on how to blanch them) but we'd never eat 7lb before they went off!! It seemed a shame to let them go to waste. This time of year it's a job to give them away. Hubby gave a whole carrier bag of green beans to a complete stranger the other day just so as not to waste them!! 
I always buy a large amount of carrots, peel & slice them just like that and freeze in individual portions.
Been bad today, existed on party nibbles all day and thoroughly enjoyed it.
