    I cant believe it's still snowing here, not sticking though luckily.

    I don't like olives either, they're yukky.

    Very very bored now.

    Deep breaths Sal, then whack him with a shovel :p
  • Woo hoo, back home from work :T

    Beanie, thanks for your note today... Something to think about Hug_by_Abfc.gif

    Ok I have... 125 knives, 125 spoons, 125 forks, 125 teaspoons, 1000 napkins and 1kg of salted peanuts for the party. So thats done but please can you scrub my name of the 'normal' ballons. I have 80 cheapo ones, which I will bring, but I cant afford to get any more :( So sorry...

    Now off to update sig :o

    Olives are ick. Seeds on the other hand, yummmmm. I get ones from a health shop here with green tahini on them - so tasty.
    I've been naughty now and skipped lunch which I know won't help :o

    I wonder if all the graze stuff is actually healthy though - honey covered nuts are hardly low fat?

    Just ordered my ink so that's sorted. And I was naughty, and got a purple velvet coat thing from Dotty P's http://www.dorothyperkins.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=20552&storeId=12552&categoryId=165612&parent_category_rn=165602&productId=1431586&langId=-1 is lovely but doesn't quite fit. Give me time and it will :)

    Well if you are going to snack its better than a chocolate bar...although fruit you buy yourself will be better and cheaper than those boxes.

    Also both dried fruit and nuts have lots of calories/fat in so if you are 'counting' or doing a low cal diet then it could mess you up in terms of numbers. However, if you are eating instead of junk food then yes its good :)

    Thanks for the Graze codes! Just having a nosey at their website.. as I sit here munching on a biscuit!

    Elfen, that Dotty P coat is absolutely gorgeous. And what a bargain! I've been eying up some shoes on Discount Shoe Store ever since Ames posted a link to those lovely shoe boots last week. (Can you tell I am a habitual lurker...!)

    Shoe boots? I've been looking for a pair of them.....and cuppacha, I saw it (well the front) and love the military stuff, then I turned it and it's got tails, and I adore it. Give me a month and I'll fit in it

    Yeah that's what I was thinking. The site does seem to portray that everything is super healthy. All looks nice though.

    I'm so bored, there's nothing for me to do...

    Yes.. I think it was Ames who said she had ordered some. Apologies if not. Try having a look at Discount Shoe Store (dotcodotuk), they have some lovely shoes on there.

    I really love the military look as well, and the colour of that coat is just gorgeous. Perfect for spring!
