    I was so close on Monday :o then 8:30pm discovered we had no bread for the morning. It's because I found mould in my wooden bread bin so gave that a good scrub & completely forgot to carry on making a loaf:wall:
    I was going to pretend it came onto Tues shop, but I wouldn't have slept for the subterfuge:rotfl:

    not doing very well this month! only on 2!! oh dear!

    managed one unexpected one at the weekend but yesterday and today were sd's as i didn't go food shopping. so i'm getting pizza for dinner in case hubs asks for it another day this week and tomorrow MUST be a NSD or i will almost defninitely fail! it's a pain having all our money together as i can't use 'he paid' as a NSD excuse! ;)
