Beans on toast again for me. Running a little late this morning to prepare anything so just grabbed a tin and half a loaf that was in the bread bin. Must be more prepared 2moro. We have loads of salad stuff i'm going to have to use up, but when its so miserable rainy and cold I really never fancy salad..0

Had a bad start this month,
Tuesday & Wednesday fine, then Thursday and Friday I ended up buying stuff, partly because we haven't had stuff at home that I can have leftovers from & partly because I was rushing around in the mornings and couldn't face searching for stuff in the freezer - anyway that's 2 of my 4 paid for lunches gone.
Today it's leftovers from last night though and the same tomorrow so hoping to be slightly back on track.Initial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000
