You're doing really well to be sorted early. Means when term ends you can have a proper break rather than rushing around madly:T
I've been losing weight recently and eatingmore healthily:
a really easy and delicious way to get more veg inside you is green smoothies: eg large handful of spinach(or any other green leaves), a banana and 250ml water. Wizz in blender - so delicious, filling and healthy. They have transformd my diet and I feel better for it. I now eat loads of greens every day this way.
There are lots of variations of green smoothies too.

EDIT to add - and the smoothies taste fantastic!

The rain has cleared all the snow here today, hurray! We are about to brave ^sda's.Gulp...

It tastes good? Will have to try it...does it fill you up so you don't snack on other things?

Great to hear you're nearly sorted SF - I'm hoping to get most stuff done next weekend when I've not got the kids!

We got the tree :j :j decided on an artificial one in the end as we don't have much room - so went to Homeba$e as they've got a half price sale on at the moment got lots of purple and silver decorations too we got some lights as well not sure if we can be bothered to pick it up now, so it'll probably be tomorrow when it's all done I shall also post a pic of our efforts! :rotfl:

Also finished my Christmas shopping :j :j I need to wrap some and then post them ASAP and then I'm all sorted just spend the last hour writing christmas cards - I love the run up to Christmas

Needless to say, spent quite a bit today! :eek: I shall balance the books tomorrow....

BB - we don't have a blender/food processor as we don't really have room, but I love smoothies! I used to make them all the time at home and they are a good way of getting lots of fruit and veg in if there are any small ones in the sales after Christmas, I might try and get one and squeeze it in somewhere. I haven't been healthy today though, just had choc pud and custard for afters oops.
sea - I did start thinking about presents a while ago, as I hate it when I have to rush around in the week before Christmas!

Nom nom nom, freshly baked sultana scones with HM damson jam and whipped cream - very good, even if I do say so myself!
