    oooherr - half term and flying isn't really working for me! I'm going to get a grip and get the Tuesday jobs done. Luckily, because since the first big sitting room blitz I've been mini-flying around it every day it's managed to survive without the full fly job yesterday - will HHC it later if I can summon up the energy. Kitchen, however, is a different story...... off I go!
  • Good evening :beer: We had a lovely day, and DH took us out for lunch :T I had a small glass of wine and napped on the way home :o DD has made crumpets, so we're having them for tea, with lashings of butter :)

    I see congrats are in order for greenbee and Jo - need to go and find out what for :rotfl:

    Grateful - I want that puppy *stamps foot smilie*

    PHEW!!!!!!!!!!! ALMOST had baby poo on the floor..Squeak is having a wriggle in the niff .. good job I looked when I did!!

    No dinner here tonight as some muppet turned off the SC so the meat is only half cooked and will take another couple of hours.. it should have been done about 4pm.. I am absolutely furious! So they are getting chicken and mash instead of the lovely piece of pork we were having.. though OH can have pork later..

    I feel like a GENIUS
    more leftovers recooked and rehashed, served to DS and eaten (he won't eat leftovers normally - so I can't plate up a meal then nuke it for him)
    Sunday I had loads of new spuds leftover. With the addition of onion, oilve oil, egga I have served up Tortilla (or spanish omelette - DD's tapas book called it tortilla.) Never made one before! just had it with salad!
    was a doddle an' all!

    Congrats to Greenbee on the promotion...and xxJoxx for the loved-upness
