No Money Mummy to Millionaire Mummy!!

Pips_Mum

Mummy - Well you will do it all so quick wont you! Yes I will have 1 or 2 for you, last Christmas I was expecting Pip so will make the most of drink freedom for myself anyway!!

Lucielle I think Mummys 4th is due early April? I hope she has another girl or the poor little boy will be swamped by women!!

I had a thought, Ive actually paid off nearly £5000 because I had to add on £900 when our boiler broke so that made me feel a bit better too.

Woke up to 3 inches of snow! Its quite pretty but made the trip to Mr Ms a bit tricky. Got there and spent a fortune (£75) but have filled the freezer with meat (pork, chicken, beef, ham joint & mince), got loads of tinned beans, toms and other stuff. Got loads of dry goods and also a huge stock pot for a fiver, thought it would be good for stews and stuff.
Ive saved the reciepts for the last 5 weeks too so I got a £25 off voucher which i am going to use for Pips 1st Birthday party food.

1st Birthday, hey, can you believe where time has gone?

Pips_Mum

Tell me about it ladies!!:eek:
I cant believe how much I have achieved in a year its mental. Tonnes of people would sneer and say they are not achievements but I know you lot understand. I am actually feeling really positive about next year and all the great things I can do.......give me a hell yeah!!:j

It has snowed here all day today so I am in bed wrapped up warm. OH says e has gone for a bath but I think he must think our bayhroom is in sweden rather than along the landing as he is blatantly wrapping my chrimbo pressies! :rotfl:Bless him!!

Ive just been flicking through the Old style boards, lots of good stuff on there.:D

Hmmmmmmmmm must go and find your diary smarties as it seems to have gone awol from my subscribeds.

What are you talking about!! I LOVE Lambrini!!

And baileys, and cava, and vodka, and rum, and Southern comfort, and wine and beer and oh well you get the picture!!

A girl after my own heart.

Don't know of you have an Iceland near you, but they have bottles premixed cocktails (70cl bottles 4%alcohol), and there 3 for £5.

Opened a woowoo, (vodka,peach shnnapps, cranberry) it was gorgeous, could add more vodka for an added kick, there was 4 different flavours, and there brightly decorated bottles - must be good, my mother drank some.

Had to celebrate passed my OU exam, apprently there was 20% of the nationwide figures that failed xx

Crikey your DH must be related to my DH then, cos thats exectly what he does. :mad:

Our snow all melted but we hoping for more soon, we have a big inflatable snowman in garden who looked sensational when it snowed the other day. He stood proudly in a graden of snow. :rotfl:

Well done Pips mum on finishing all your shopping etc, my shopping all done except for turkey. :j Still got wrapping to tackle though. :mad:

mummy2mygirls

OMG!!! My dh has taken the dog for its hair cut then phoned and said he will be a few hrs as he is going to the shops now to get my present!! Not leaving it till xmas eve is a bonus....it will still be a mad rush as he wont want to go to to many shops so ill get what they have im sure :p (i have asked for some big long jumpers which will go over my bump....so will see )

Pips_Mum

Ha ha! Thats a nice surprise for you Mummy. You are lucky as there is some lovely long baggy knitwear at the moment so I am sure he will have found something. I asked OH for a cosy jumper that was smart enough for work, be intriguing to see what I get!!:rotfl::rotfl:

Kidcat loving inflatable snowman! That will confuse a few people once snow melts!! :rotfl:Ours is still sticking around but has frozen now so its a bit dangerous.:eek:

Mum2one Cocktails sound yummy. Well done again on passing your exam.:T

Ive been doing some cooking today. I had to make a massive chicken curry for at my mums on boxing day. It has to feed 8 people so I used 6 chicken breasts on offer at morries, 5 onions, large tub yoghurt, jar of tikka paste and a little bit of garlic and cumin. All in all £7.50 so 93p per head. Will just need a bag of value rice 73p and we are away!:D

Also did some other cooking made:
2 chillis (1 portion serves 2 if you get what I mean!)
2 bolognaise
2 pork and sausage casseroles
2 sausage and bean hotpots
2 pork and cider casseroles

All for just under £8 so about 80p for a meal for 2 whoop whoop!! I will need to add some mash, pasta or rice to the meals but still be well under £2 per meal.:money:

Best still its all done and in the freezer and I wont have to cook each night!:T

Ive done my meal plan until the end of January and apart from bread, milk and veg shouldnt need to buy much else each week.

I HATE meal planning so might carry on and do a couple more months worth and make the shopping lists to match, its done then isnt it?

Hope you are all having a great day x x x
