    I think that BG would be telling us that they have the best parents in the world, who are kind, loving and generous; take them to see interesting new places and introduce them to new experiences all the time. Not forgetting all the cuddles, stories and conversations. :D:D

  • Good Morning :hello:

    How lucky am I?

    We got invited out to tea last night :D Our hosts cooked curry :D It was deliciously tasty food. Delicious. But do you know the real treat? It was being cooked for. I felt truly spoiled :D

    I am however, laughing (in a kind way) at the fact that our, 'Saturday Night Out' is now over and done with by 7.30pm :rotfl:I wouldn't have it any other way though ;) And imagine how much cash it'd cost nowadays to go out and about drinking and disco-dancing until dawn :D

    Friday night tea was left over pizza and the mrL wedges. The wedges were 65p for 750g. I would say they were an OK product. I would buy them again. The potatoes used actually tasted of potato :D The only slightly incongruous thing was that the coating was entirely reminiscent of the breadcrumb coating on fish fingers......... Not bad, just a little sense bending :D

    The menu planner says 'bake' for today. I'm make summat up I think. I'm still on a high from last night :D

    We were going to go out on a day trip, but the weather was supposed to be dire. We've woken up to rain, sure, but not lashings and lashings, as predicted :( We probably could have gone. Maybe we'll take a sanger out and about yet.

    Right, best go off and find out what DH and Baby Greying are up to :D

    Definitely a day for baking Greying - it's rained solidly all morning on my bike ride :eek: although thr sun has come out now I'm home and about to hop in the bath! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Must investigate potato wedges. My own attempts to make them frequently fail :o never tried bought ones though...
  • Good Morning :hello:

    Well, best laid plans of meeses and Greyings...... I didn't do bake for tea last night. I was going to do something with the 3 avocados for £1 that I got from the overpriced on some things grocer. Unfortunately, they had decided to rot from the inside out (the avocados, not the grocers!) :( So into the compost bin they went. Hate wasting food, but they weren't appetising and the taste was bitter :(

    Instead, i dug caponata out of the freezer, boiled up the remaining bit of pasta twirls that I had and sprinkled over some grano padano that I had grated for something else, and which had been languishing in the fridge for a week!

    I will have to try to make a bake for this evening instead, as I have some left over egg whites that need using up today really. I shall put my thinking cap on as to what else can be included, to use things up and avoid buying more.

    We didn't take a sanger for a walk yesterday :( It really peeves me when the weather forcast is sooo wrong for an area. We went out to see the gardening and non-gardening parentals instead. So now i have some HG tatties and some leeks to do something creative with :D Leek bake with creamy mashed potatoes anyone? Sounds like a plan :D

    Today could be a nsd. I can't currently think of anything that we desparately need. But I will have to put a list together, as there are a couple of items that the 'last' has been taken out of the storecupboard for use. And do you know, i'mglad I wrote that, as I have just remembered that I ate the last banana this morning, so we're out of bananas. I will be spending after all!

    How useful are these diaries!

    Right, I'm away to find cuddles in close proximity and coffee at a safe distance :D

  • And I forgot to say, I found the mrL 'pick 'o t'week' extremely useful this week; carrots (1kg), Parsnips (500g), red onions (750g) and cherry tomatoes (250g) all for 29p each. We have filled us boots :D (the parsnips alone were 16p a bag cheaper than mrAl S6 offering).
