Cream and toffee sauce please. If it can't be zero calories, let's go all out!

Oh. You said 'countless', not 'count less'. That explains a lot :rotfl:.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Evening GG, apparently Mr T made a massive jug of toffee sauce - now need to figure out what to do with the rest of it

Best make some more pudding to be on the safe side I think. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

Morning, 23p Tilly Tidy to MOS
Insurance is due for our other home so Mr T is doing some research into providers. Current one is very professional and a little discussion will be needed to weigh up cost vs service.
Operation decorate continues and hall doors will be rubbed down this week. It does mean we should have a lovely clean and sparkly hall, stairs and landing in time for Xmas
I have nothing on the menu plan for this evening - it was salad but DS and Mr T don't fancy that. As we are all out tonight it needs to be quick. May have to give in and have F&C :eek:
It is going to be a busy week but that at least means the first Sunday in Advent will be here soon and the decs can go up
That's all for now. Have a good week, Tilly x2004 £387k 29 years - MF March 2033:eek:

How about having omelettes for tea or Jkt spuds with beans and cheese, easy tea and loads cheaper than F&C.1 -

Evening, sadly mum is not feeling at all well which is always a worry. She has made it to a good age though and hopefully she will be here for years to comemisscousinitt wrote: »Hi Tilly
