Good morning all.

Just thought this would be quicker reference than what's for dinner or searching through lots of posts? There used to be one a while back, Meal Plan Monday or obviously whatever day you start yours on 🙂 I did post mine in the Grocery challenge, but will post again for anybody that doesn't join in with that thread. Vegan…

Morning everyone.

I haven't been able to find a thread, although I bet there is one … I spilt a yoghurt drink on the floor the other day. Carpet - not a very good or fluffy one. Scraped it up, wet it, sponged it to lift moisture, sprayed it with Febreze. Next day, smell remains - doesn't help that it's 30+ out there and not much cooler…

Good morning.

It hit 26.4C in husband's office in Surrey today and was 23C here. Usually, when Spring is much warmer, we would have been in Summer cooling mode since May. When husband came home, we rearranged our bedroom a bit and put a tower fan back in there. We have a Levoit air purifier on 24/7 365 because husband has COPD and we…
