Morning guys! :wave:

Well the day didn't start too well after the batch of curries I made yesterday got left out on the side after I left them there to "cool" before putting them in the freezer! So they had to go in the bin! :doh:

But, then I did my first weigh-in of my wedding day diet (333 days to go until I become Mrs Ryan!) and lost 1.4lbs! Not a massive amount but every lb counts. I want to lose around 2 stone before the wedding, so bit of a way to go! :rotfl:

Its bloomin freezing out there today, think winter is on its way! :snow_laug

Sooo, that in mind, today I shall: -

• [STRIKE]Check online bankings[/STRIKE]
• Continue knitting winter blanket
• Look into making draught excluders for front and back doors (last year the heating had to be on all the time because so much cold air was coming in under them - not this year!
• [STRIKE]Pay in ebay earnings (£30.52) into OD[/STRIKE]
• Wrap up ebay parcels
• No heating on yet even though its freezing! (and not until 1st Dec if I have my way!)
• Slow cooker chicken overnight to portion up in the morning
• Surveys

Well that's it for now, catch you all later! x

Ooh thanks Angelflower, I'm pretty sure its unsalvagable now, but I'll know for next time! My mother always tuts at me if I don't stick it in the fridge/freezer as soon as it is at the optimum temperature! :rotfl:

Next time I think I'll risk it! :rotfl: x
