    [STRIKE]Make potato and leek soup (which I assume is potato and leek, boiled up in the chicken stock I made earlier. Anyone see anything glaring obviously wrong, please let me know before I blow up my kitchen....again!)[/STRIKE]


    Also wiped both window sills, surface vaccumed everywhere and have everything ready for work (which inevitably means I've forgotten something, but if I can't think of it, I don't think I'll need it for a four hour shift). Need to write a quick shopping list of the bits I need, even though I'm already over on this weeks GC, maybe I can make it up next week...
