  • Hi everyone : )

    Another NSD for me today - but I did need to get milk yesterday :( The bright side of this, though, is I can push back my grocery shopping a couple more days at least now, so saving some pennies! I'm determined to give this a really good go, even though it is A LOT harder than I thought it would be!!! :D

    yegods! The words 'Treat' and 'Spinach' in the same sentance? You poor poor woman!
    :rotfl::rotfl:I have bag of spinach in my freezer that has been there since the dawn of time - expiry date on it is April 2010 - so any tips on how I can "treat" myself with it would be greatly received. I actually opened it today and bunged some into my risotto. x
