LO is having tea at his friends while me and his mum go to Zumba, so I will only need to feed myself when I get home (and my sister if she is there - not that she would let me know before hand...) so will probably be something easy like rubber chicken risotto. :cool:

All the ones Ive found online for LO are sort of pre-defined and cant really be changed. It sounds like you have one you can do whatever you want with! Im very impressed!

Kept going after my HHC as I knew I could get most stuff done in another HH. I did my 5 mins decluttering in the kitchen and sorted loads of storage boxes and carrier bags. 5 mins in our bedroom and all my toiletries and top of chest of drawers sorted. Spare room I decluttered the shelf with all Christmassy bits on and know what is there for next year. Also decluttered all empty bottles etc from my gym bag.
