Glad to hear it's not just us who pig out Radish
Least it's homemade stuff though.
I've logged back into Toluna and am trying to get my points up - takes a while though!
I also must join the grocery challenge again, now we have Smlet we can't really just have pancakes, beans on toast, cheese toasties for dinner for a week. I'm on our last can of tomatoes!
Fruit, oh my fruit costs a bomb esp. when you can go through a punnet of £2 strawberries everyother day! Smlet has discovered that strawberries also grow in the garden so he plucks off a green one. hands to to me and looks expectant like i can magically make it ripe!At least the raspberries and tayberries are ripening now. Made choolate and rasperry pancakes for tomorrow's breakfast.
The credit card was terrible this month (I've just paid it) £80 spent on enjoying myself - no, nothing to show for it. £60 on legwarmers and 2 fluffy, personalised embroided nappies - sooooo lovely i must buy more....... and the rest on food.
Still no one wants to see the house......Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck
