In again, done loads of batch cooking today.
Managed 2 pork in gravys,3 large curry base sauce courtesy of Curry Queens excellent recipe and 7 beef in gravys all in foil or plastic containers.:D
Also managed to clear kitchen bin, twice.
Cleaned the little box for veg peelings which had been left outside and stunk horribly. So now can deposit all veg stuff in here and then plonk in compost bin outside.
So begins another week and DD1 (aka Satan at the mo, due to extreme moody and grumpy behaviour) has 2 exams tomorrow.
So I'll await her return and don my body armour and tin hat and await the onslaught of general grumpiness.
Anyways hoping Toots and Pigpen gets all healified and feel better this week.
Valli, Soappie and Quillion, thanks for stepping up and keeping things in the thread going. Much appreciated.:hello:

Keep forgetting to say that Rhys is sooooooooooo cute Vanilla, no wonder you aren't doing any flying, he is gorgeous, take as much time as you like starring at him. They are only small for such a short time.
