    Today: brekkie - porridge with apple and raspberries, lunch - pizza from Mr T, tea - chicken and pasta with pesto (which was really yum)

    Tomorrow: brekkie - porridge with apple (DD wasn't impressed with the raspberries), lunch - hopefully HM bread (hopefully as I need to put the BM on in the morning for us to have it), tea - probably oven baked fish with boiled spuds

    Last of the pasta went with yesterday's burgers into the freezer to be taken as lunch. :j So if I put a lentil+veggie soup in SC tomorrow I will have lunches made for over a week :jI am saving a fortune :j

    DD spotted these in the shop today:

    OMG they are soooo gooood (but then I do love anything lemony :p)

    I made a huge pot of lentil and vegetable soup yesterday too marru, with the same idea about lunches. I just can't seem to get it quite right. Some I made a couple of weeks ago, I added ginger and it was a bit yuk:( This time I followed a recipe and used bay, paprika and cayenne but it tastes a bit sweet. I think it may be the stock. My favourite is with HM stock from gammon. How do you do yours?

    Chicken curry here tonight, with pilau rice and chips. Was yummy!

    Waves to you all

    Jo hang on in there girl, remember to use his toothbrush to clean the loo, the skirtings, your shoes and whatever looks grotty - then give it a rinse and pop it back in the holder - it made me feel better after I'd cleaned up a bit with his toothbrush when my very stupid ex was cheating on me xx

    I was also lathering his food with tonnes of extra butter and giving him huge portions, watching the pounds pile on is always very attractive.

    Pippi, you should pop in the diner more often, you've just made me laugh out loud after a very long night with a poorly piglet!:T:rotfl:

    Todays fodder was a pub lunch (yum!!) of crayfish and prawn cocktail followed by rump steak, salad and a few fries (I was being good!) and chicken stir-fry for tea (rest of family had pizzas so I felt very virtuous!:D)

    Today - more stir-fry no doubt as have loads of veggies left!

    Jo- don't forget too, no fabric conditioner in the undies...in fact starch is a good idea!

    Morning peeps.

    Sadly Crunchy Nut cornflakes here for breaky - got up late - off out to buy some more chickens this morning, so no time for any pancakes :(

    Home made veg stew and dumplings for lunch. Then Chines pork ribs and some sort of veggie rice mix for dinner later.

    Morning all, sorry been so AWOL of late, things are very odd here at the moment. All very unpredictable.

    Noticed this morning that OH has kept me as a friend on his FB but blocked me from seeing anything, so I'm about to defriend him lol.

    I'm telling him I'm applying for a divorce tonight, I'm a bit skint but with the help of an amazingly lovely person on the 'other' thead who just happens to be/have been a matrimontal lawyer lol, I'm gonna do a DIY job and although she has sent me links to every bit of paperwork and forms I need, she said I can pick it all up at the courts, so to save (works) ink, I will pop down there tomorrow lunchtime and pick it all up, its only down the road and free :)
