When I asked for luck I didn't mean the bad variety!!!

they were Linda McCartney and I was surprised that I liked them. Ok I have the magazine so might give it a try. We eat the chilli recipe from the site quite alot and considering DD was off eating mince for years it was quite a coup for me to get her to eat it . It is lush and DD and I love flavour but we are not so keen on heat so I just use mild chilli powder.Some of the recipes are amazingly delicious considering they are so low in fat

They certainly are MiT. We've had the broccoli and macaroni cheese from last month's mag tonight! It was very sumptuous for a low fat dish (although it took longer under the grill than it said it would!).

Been to work today which was busy in spits and starts but overall ok.

Today is my lovely Grandma's birthday but I had to settle for just talking to her on the phone with being at work. However, we are getting together for a big family sunday lunch tomorrow . There will be about 20-25 of us so I'm looking forward to that!

Hope everyone has had a fab Saturday Xx

Lunch today was great, it was fab for us all to be together. I was pretty good diet wise and chose a tomato and chilli pasta. Wowzers was it hot! My lips were burning, I think someone tripped carrying the chillies and tipped the whole lot in . I didn't have a pudding but I had a spoonful of DS1's sticky toffee pud and then succumbed to a small bit of birthday cake. Overall it wasn't ridiculously bad though. DH had his own pud, half of my cousins pud, some sticky toffee and a bit of birthday cake :eek: Will remind him of this on Tuesday if he is unhappy with the result he gets on the scales! (watch him lose more than me!!). My Grandma paid for everyone bless her, which I wasn't expecting. If I'd known that I wouldn't have put diesel in the car today and it would've been a NSD too :rotfl:.
