Evening Everyone, I am really late today, but been a really good sort of busy day.

Today I have
Checked online banking
Went weeding at the allotment
Took ds to his mates house, where my friend made me special toasted cheese sarnies for lunch (yum)
Delivered a big plastic drum to said friend for her allotment.
It was a nsd, until I went to co-op where they had punnets of grapes and cherries for 50p each, and the can opener to replace mine which collapesed:mad: only 99p
Tonight I am going to load dishwasher, put washing on overnight and have a nice lazy read of the book dd lent me.

Hugs to those who need them and :D:D to all

Thats prob enough given its half six already!!

Doing well tonight...just opened some letters that had piled up that I was going to deal with and one included £30 of Sainsbury vouchers. I forgot I got them for taking out a home insurance policy (inc quidco cashback).

Also have to report getting my free MOT certificate from Kwik-fit for taking out their car insurance.

3) got a t/c off orange suggesting I get a new call plan, £15 pound per month cheaper and brand new shiney phone...... this is less than 2 weeks after my other phone broke and i had to rush to tesco and spend 40 quid on a new one :mad:

I don't really have a plan - I haven't even joined properly yet, though my husband and I are taking steps to sort things out!

However the small thing I have done today is ring the husband (who is off work this week) and told him to sort out all his old X Box and PS2 games so I can ebay them!

:T

He has sorted out 26 games - think i'll list them at the weekend.

I also applied (and got accepted for) an Egg card to transfer a balance with a high APR to 0%.

This evening I made some blueberry cupcakes as we had some blueberries going squashy in the fruitbowl Hubby was thrilled :rotfl:

Hi there - I am new to all of this so having a good look around and finding what is on here inspiring and comforting. Can anyone please tell me what these free daily scratch cards are and how do I go about it? Thank you xx

Hi there - what was your blueberry recipe please and did they turn out yummy? I have some going squishy too! xx

I just kind of adapted a normal cupcake recipe! They were lovely though!!

4oz Self Raising Flour
4oz butter
2.5oz sugar
2 eggs
blueberries (i think there was about 100g - i didnt check :rotfl:)

I chucked butter, sugar and eggs in food processor, whizzed up. Added flour and whizzed some more, then stirred in blueberries.

baked in over on about 180 for about 12 minutes. It made 12 decent size cakes :T

Thank you - will make them tomorrow with my little girl - she's only 2 so it'll be fun!!! xx
