So, another day in the SF household. OH is about to leave to go and pick up a new laptop he has ordered in the sales, so that's exciting!

We need to do some food shopping, but I don't know if I can be bothered to do a meal plan and list, so that may be tomorrow....

I'm not going to go food shopping today, I can't be bothered so we're having spaghetti with a HM tomato and onion sauce, using up some of the passatta that's leftover from making HM pizzas. We're going to have it with some garlic bread from the freezer, so the meal is a bit carb heavy, but it's all stuff that we have in the store cupboard, so doesn't cost us anything.

Tomorrow I will have to go food shopping though! Our fridge is looking very bare, and we're in dire need of some fruit and veg too, so unavoidable really. I'm also going to have a quick look in the N£xt sale, to see if I can spy anything to use my voucher on if not, I'll save it until the spring stuff comes into the shops. Me and OH also have a £20 M&$ giftcard to spend, so we may use that to get some yummy foodie stuffs, or save it until the next dine in deal comes along

So, a very positive start to the new year I'd say!

89 days to go...!

All sounding good

Me and OH went for a wander out today before he goes back to work tomorrow. I bought a ham shank from the butchers for £2.40 so we've had some of that with carrots, brocolli, sprouts and gravy (OH also had mash). Tomorow I'm going to attempt to make ham and pea soup in the SC, I need to pop to Mr T's for some food tomorrow, as I didn't go today, so I'll get some peas to make the soup too.

So, not a NSD for me today.

I've been to Mr T's today and bought some more bits and bobs. Currently have HM pea and ham soup bubbling away in the SC - I've never made it before so I'm hoping it tastes okay! :eek: it smells good so that's something I guess, so just keeping my fingers crossed.

I've also tidied away the christmas decorations, finally it always seems such a faff, but it didn't really take that long to do. Another thing ticked off my mental to do list! I've also done the shredding which has needed doing for ages, so another thing crossed off.

Keeping on plodding

Soup was good - it needs a bit of tweaking for next time, but OH had three bowls full, so it must have been alright!

Feeling a bit down today, but trying not to focus on it. I've watched Harry P 6 and now watching Harry P 7 part 1, so at least that's taking my mind off things somewhat. I love both the books and the DVDs and I got the new limited edition boxset for christmas so I'm working my way through them.

It's also another NSD for me - I've not been anywhere and don't intend to go anywhere, so nothing to spend anything on Not that we've really got the money anyway.
