I believe i've just earned my 1st star!! and on my 1st day FLYing too:j
Didnt manage to do the extra, and instead of clearing a cupboard in the kitchen (already organised and clean) I finally sorted out under the stairs which was a mass of coats and shoes! it is now tidy and organised under there!
I also managed to shread the paperwork i've been meaning to do for a while. Kitchen is clean again after dinner, lunches done for OH and DD1 too so now its time to rest I think. Will post tomorrows list in the morning when I see how energised I am after the school run lol
Hope every1 is ok, have fun FLYing

My word this thread sure does move fast.
Didnt get as much done as I would have liked because DS#2 totally made a mess of his bedroom and toy room, and I had to get stuck straight into that. I did get a start on the Kitchen but didnt get any Ironing done, and didnt do anything in the dining room.
Havent read through the thread, so I hope everyone is okay, if not hugs.

I like it with or without cumin, depends on how you feel really.
I like to serve it with a drizzle of ex virgin olive oil, a sprinkle of paprika and chilli flakes :drool:
HTH
Thanks SarahS, that looks scrummy! I'll definitely be trying it!0
