The chicken has been $15 a kilo for some time up here so also a good price.

From my local IGA. I would love to be able to get a boned leg of lamb that looks as juicy and as plump as this.

I think the photo has been enhanced a little bit Roll Eyes

Price is not bad though.

This may be our weekend roast.

I must admit I only bought a small one but this is how mine looks. It’ll be in the Weber Kettle soon. With all this rain hopefully can keep everything dry.

IGA in Ballina has Premium grain fed whole Rumps at $15.99, thats not bad buying as the usual "Economy Rumps" are around $15 when on sale.

A bigger freezer is just like a bigger shed. The bigger they are the more you find to put in them & they’re still not big enough.

That chicken mince is a good price. Down here IGA is the more expensive of the super markets.

Not a bad buy. Bit too much for us though as would need a bigger fridge.

Take the rump cap off for a roast, and slice the rest.
