You see what you have done? (ROTFL) - everyone wants croissants now! (me included) - Definitely a 'see-one-want-one' thing without seeing (IYSWIM!). My strawberries and boysenberry arrived late yesterday, so going out to plant stuff shortly

Mmmm .... I can eat wheat once a week or so, you know croissants are a wonderful use of that .... mmmmm .... croissants.

Oh dear, you're not going to like this then!

They're pretty good (even if I say so myself), although definitely not the best ever. They've improved - when first taking them out of the oven they were quite hard on top, but they've softened up now and are better still when reheated.

I too, have planting to do today, SL, and some desperately needed weeding!

Mmm croissants .......
We have all four cars with Admiral, so £50 for us and £25 each for the DC. 

I am impressed too and they have made my "good" list of companies for when this is all over. 

Tbh we have used them for years as their multi car insurance was considerably cheaper for a young male driver who does £20k miles a year. The only downside is that renewal quotes are high and you have to ring them every year armed with cheaper comparisons  to get their "best" price. Worth it though as that makes them very competitive.

Oh my days!! They look amazing!!! Well done vix!

We’ve been with Admiral for a long time too Busy Mee and have had a very similar experience - it’s  a pain having to ring up but they do always get the price down. 

Thanks Jess! 😁

Evening all,

 Decided to do my update in the evening when I actually have stuff to report! Tiny amount of work done this morning... definitely feeling the pinch now.

 Reasonably productive day - lots of weeding done, made galettes for lunch (feeling very French today!) and have frozen 8 of the croissants, leaving 4 for tomorrow morning. 

Have placed a click and collect order for my zero waste shop tomorrow - need some bits to make dad’s cake and topped up a couple of other bits at the same time. Looking forward to my trip out 😁

MS things:
* used up some of the buckwheat flour!
* clicks
 * work

 Gratitudes:
* heady scent of the bluebells on my long walk this morning
 * people with small children getting out of the way as I was faster than them
 * croissants and galettes... currently resisting the urge to make crepes for dinner as I’d need to get more milk for the morning

 Have a good evening!
