We have a front and a back garden but we can't put anything in them as the area we live in is the kind where things get stolen/broken just for the fun of it :-(.
My fianc!e wanted to fence off a section of the back garden and have a little vegetable patch, whether or not it would be a good idea in this area is another matter, that and we have a lot of neighbourhood cats as well as our own wandering the gardens.
Just wondering, can you freeze HM soup?? I might make some next time I do the shopping and freeze some if I can as well as putting some in the fridge.
So far today is going ok food wise.
All I've had so far is:
3 1/2 slices of Marmite on toast.
1 glass of orange & diet lemonade (with a lot of ice).
1 small bottle (very small!) of diet cola.
:-D no idea what is for dinner tonight yet though...Total Weight Loss Progress = -17lbs

You most certainly can. I normally make a batch to cover my work lunches for the week, and freeze the rest. I have around 4 portions of some veg soup I made a while ago still in my freezer that are good for 'emergency' lunches or dinners, when I can be bothered to cook.
I normally leave it in the fridge overnight to defrost, but I'm sure you can defrost it in the microwave too.

Congratulations SlowlyFading!
The biscuits found me... in fact, the mini Party Rings found me...
but it's ok, I won't let it ruin the rest of my day. I always get a hunger around 4pm I must plan for it next time...
Have added the 30 day shred to my signature, to keep track and remind myself to do it. I will never finish the 30 days but it may keep me going longer than otherwise!

Im yoyo-ing again:wall: I plan to get on an even keel before my holidays. I will finish this challenge a week early as shall be away. Hugs xxI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Evening All
Congratulations SlowlyFading.
Watermelon88 - We eat very well and healthily on between £140 and £180 per month - which is DH and myself and then DS, DDiL and DGD at least once a week and often more plus visitors. I always cook from scratch too. We live in a village with just a Co-Op and a Budgens which are both very expensive but we stock up at Lidl (22 miles away) if we are going into the city or Tesco (5 miles away) if I am going swimming to our nearest little town. I use money off vouchers when I can and always look in the reduced section.
B: Muesli with sultanas
L: Poached egg on toast. Stewed HG gooseberries with Greek yoghurt.
Chicken leg, green beans, mushrooms and new potatoes with butter. Iced raspberry smoothie.
Snacks: 1/2 small bar of dark chocolate.
Exercise: 1 hour Pilates class. 1.5 miles of walking to various places.
