    Cheers Bunny, I think I might just have it with some horseradish to spice it up a bit. I'd never have thought about it till I saw it on there.

    Some of those recipes looked nice-I may try them with smoked haddock.

    right ho........

    feel a challenge coming on...

    1. List 3 items on Ebay or put 3 items in the charity box/bin Going to do another bag of too big clothing for the charity bin and will pop it round tonight
    2. Make all today's meals from what you have in already Already happening :D
    3. Pay an extra £1.29 onto a debt payment/into the savings pot I've decided to start off a little 'pot' for BB to have some fun with. I've got £35 to start it off with from my daily scratchcard money I've been keeping
    4. Do 15mins of something that leaves you out of breath Am I the only one that thought naughty things when they saw that? ;)
    5. Pay something forward I'd never heard of it until today but helped out with a laptop problem yesterday if I can count that? ooh, actually. I know. I 'sent' my ex £25 today - he has a free scratchcard account he never uses, I've been doing his at the same time as mine every day and he has £25 in there now so I've withdrawn it to his bank account. He doesn't know so it will be a nice bit of cash for him and it's not taken me more than a few seconds each day.
    6. Do one thing you've been putting off hhhhm.........I've got a credit card bill to pay. I'll do that.
    7. Start your September food plan Already there. Shopping comes at the weekend and CD will be ordered weekly :D
    8. Do one thing JUST FOR YOU Lots of my life is 'just for me' now. It's all coming together nicely ;)

    First things first though......the washing up.....
    :D"Stay Wonky":D
