    I cooked fortunes lentil chilli last night.... Threw some extra ingredients in and ended up with enough of it for 6 meals for 2 people and a couple of portions (without the extra chilli) for ds2. And the best thing about it is that it was really yummy! Thanks fortune!

    DH and I are going out for dinner tonight, it'll be the first time this year. Actually, the first time since November. We both got paid some bonus this month, so we decided it would be a nice treat. It's my friends birthday today too, so we might join her for a drink afterwards....

    I'm going to pop a few things on eBay this weekend but it will need to be tomorrow as DH is working today and the boys will want my attention.

    Sooooo cold here at the moment, it really seemed like spring was arriving at the beginning of the week but now we're back to the cold, dull, grey weather....

    Brightened up a bit here for a moment - that'd be the snow flurry :doh:.

    Glad it turned out well Lulabelle. I also use it to make pies topped with sliced or mashed potatos or cheesey rice. We're having some for supper tonight.

    I found the Briggs Meyer test terrifying - I had never felt so accurately 'typed' in my entire life. I'm an INJF, which is why I'm so special :rotfl:

    7 items listed on eBay - Might have a poke around and see if I can find anything else. The way the boys are behaving right now, they will be on there by the end of the day....

    deep breaths Lula and count to 10! Or sell them. Either way is OK.
