Fire Fox's Debt-Free in 2009 Diary

Fire_Fox

Pilchard & Vegetable Pasta (3 portions @ 51p each)

400g tin of pilchards in tomato sauce 64p
300g homemade tomato sauce 40p
Frozen fine green beans, 150g 15p
250g Napolina wholemeal pasta 35p

Loads of pilchards in a tin and the oil makes the result really rich. Reckon you could get away with bulking up with a few cannellini beans or red lentils.

This will sound weird but I have wanted that toilet brush for two years. Every alternative I have picked up has had a 'clanky' and cheap feeling except this one! Anyway I will use the toilet brush more times that I will wear the blue satin peep toes, which were more expensive and will be subjected to equally unsanitary situations (feet, vomit, dog poop). Did that demonstate my school of justification graduateness?

I'm not long home from a family party where I discovered that, although I cannot walk in them, I can dance in the red soled heels! :T We are having a new year party in my apartment (girls you are all invited) so the blue satins may yet get an airing in 2009. Or I can just stare at them lovingly; sooooo preeeetty.
