    BDINI - of course there is enough crumble for a little one, swing by and I'll make sure it's warmed for you. Would you like some ice cream with it too? I do have some custard but I think it might have turned so if you fancy that, you'd better stop at the shop and bring some over. I'll stick the kettle on - tea or coffee? :)

    I'm not impressed with myself :mad:

    I'm sooooooo busy at the moment that I don't seem to be able to get myself organised. It's as much as I can manage to sort one day's meals, without thinking abou the next, and as a result I keep having to buy things every day. I MUST get organised!! :(

    I think one of the problems is that I've been trying to put off doing a Tesco's shop, by using other bits and pieces up, but there is always something else I need. Plus I didn't find time to do a meal plan this week, otherwise I would have been aware of what I needed to get.

    MUST DO BETTER :mad:
