    MG, are you going to put on your blog, what meals you make from your store cupboard?

    It was so funny I had been thinking about your AP delivery and what you were going to do with it, and then you went and put it on your blog that same day! Couldn't believe when I logged into my e-mails and saw it! I have to buy a fair bit of meat for DH, DS is not fussed and does get some meat at nursery so not too worried about him, but am trying to fool DH into thinking he has meat by using soya mince, etc. Unfortunately he can tell the difference if I cook meat or buy it sliced from the deli at Tesco and try to serve it to him as his sunday dinner.

    But thought if some of your meal plans I could get away with.....

    Our meals are mostly veggie - or use meat as a flavouring, so heavy on the grains, beans and pulses that I stock up from AF.

    Major revamp of the blog in progress - less focused on frugality and more about playing games to increase income - so both sides of the equation. Lots of challenges as I find that being challenged makes me get on with stuff.

    But as food is a huge part of my life - pretty sure there will be some foody stuff too. My favourite foody blog at the mo is https://www.ayorkshirecook.co.uk - cos I want to cook just about everything:D Which isn't good as like everyone else I am keeping an eye on my weight :rotfl:

    I'll try and put some on focussed on losing weight - actually, they are not bad because I don't cook sweet things or biscuits etc., - we'd be in serious weight trouble if I did!
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?

  • Hi there Matrix!

    I have 4 minutes before I have to be back at the grindstone, so I am going to type really fast... apologies for any typos which might creep in! :)

    Have been doing some thinking about whether I want to stay in this job, find another accounting job, or stay at home and be a homemaker. I keep thinking that I really, really want to the latter, but then begin wondering whether it would be a waste of my accounting skills and qualification. I have written out a list of advantages and disadvantages of giving up work and staying at home; so far advantages are winning. I think I need to have a deep and meaningful chat with hubby about it. Not sure what his opinion is going to be. :( I think I need to keep thinking about it for a bit.

    Right... tonnes and tonnes of work to do, so better get back to it.

    Love and positivity to all. Oh, and did you know that Rhonda Byrne is bringing out a new book called "The Magic" to go along with "The Secret" and "The Power"? I think it is on the market in March. :D

    But if you put on weight there will be more of you to keep an eye on so the process will be easier ;)
