    Hi Tilly

    Really sorry to hear you are feeling poorly, how are you feeling now?

    Ps, your thread is on page two :eek: The MFW board is really fast moving at the moment, I think this tends to happen at the start of the new year where we all make our new plans :D

  • Hiya MRN, ironing still hasn't been tackled :eek:

    ATT, I love to know there's loads of activity on the MFW forum, as that definitely means the banks will get less money :T

    I am over the worst now and feel slightly more human than yesterday or even this morning.

    NSD achieved.

    Fish pie for dinner tomorrow so need to get potatoes cooked early in the morning. First calls at 7am so I'll do them straight after that.

    No more financial news at all, apart from Mr T is speaking to a potential lodger this evening.

  • Hope you are feeling much better soon Tilly! I am also feeling quite under the weather at the moment - am hoping it's just tiredness from being busy over Christmas, rather than anything nasty creeping up on me!

  • Evening CA, I do think it's been pretty busy since our holiday at half term in October. I am dreaming of a couple of weeks in the sun with no work, no kids :rotfl: I think I may have a few years to go before that happens.

    Hope all is well with you

  • You'll be on that holiday sooner than I will, Tilly! Although my youngest is now potty trained and started pre school yesterday - which makes such a holiday seem a little nearer!

    Best make 2 to be on the safe side :rotfl:.

    Glad you're on the mend :T.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

  • Seriously need to copy ideas for batch cooking, seem to have stuck on mince and onion pies, sheps pie, lasagne and bolognaise. Briefly done chicken - stew and pie. Did try to make a meat loaf but what I created was just downright yuck!
    Have been using every tin, lunch box and dish and cramming in freezer but the bags seem a good idea. Currently doing loads of little pots of pasta for kids lunches.

  • Hi HKD, can I freeze pasta that way - it's never crossed my mind. I do freeze lasagne.

    That would be a great idea for kids and my lunches.

    Many thanks Tilly x
