I have just left my work for a few minutes to check on you chickadee's and I am loving this "assistance" that's happening. You have two days to get the book.. sounds like a perfect idea... a friend recently made all hers from scratch.. found the 4yr old sat on the cooker two hours later eating it cold from the pot of left-overs. Must have been good!

Technically we shall not splurge when NOvember ends but if you need a "reward" then a take away can't be refused as I will no longer be in charge come the 01/01/2012....:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

But I am impressed with your resolve to muck in an do it the hard way Kettlenic... you make me so proud.....:D

Well another day closes ( well soon anyway ) and I am just about to leave work... I have printed an A4 page for the month of NOvember and have filled it in with what I am doing. I have also filled in my shifts so I know how much food to prepare in advance for the week as some shifts require more food / or breakfast taken in as well..

I have it in an envelop and shall be ticking off NSD's as I go along.

I will also keep my £20 for the week in the envelope with me. I don't know about you but if I have money on me I am determined not to spend it and it makes me stop and REALLY think before handing it over... I also think about it less than if I didn't have it on me...? Does that make sense....

Anyway... I am nearing the end of my spreadsheet planning so have attempted to contact one girlfriend to slot her in to one of the 5 "allowed" spending days as it might be right towards the end of the month and I might need to get some vegetables in - I keep talking about vegetable but as a vegetarian they are a staple part of my existance.. and are lovely grilled with rice and halloumi...

Anyway .... over and out for now.... any more or you lurking that are technically wanting to join in??? Speak now...

I know it is not November yet, but I did say I would add any odd meals as they happened...

This evening on the menu we had.

Chicken Kiev for son
Crispy chicken for mum
Fishfingers for me

Homemade chips (the only sort I make)

Beans.

It used up a few straggly items from the freezer, I am sure there are more delights to come over the month :rotfl:


Don't say I didn't warn you :rotfl::rotfl:

Maybe would all have a virtual cookathon one night in lieu of a takeaway?

I'll bring the Quorn Chilli
