    morning all!
    last lunch of the working week today. DH wanted what was left of the soup so I made myself a cheese and pickle sandwich sandwich last night to take with me and have some cherry tomatoes, a yoghurt, a banana and an apple. Have run out of fruity tea loaf - eek!! so brought in a little cake bar from home (DH had bought a box earlier in the week) to have with some tea this afternoon...
    Since cutting down on alcohol (all part of my MF journey...) I am finding it much easier to get organised the night before to get my lunch ready for next day - hurrah!! Win win win

    MCI your sandwich sounds scrummy. I've got another snow day - can't get out of the road so I've made a chicken curry and some garlic and coriander naan breads and am treating myself to some for lunch with half a lager!!! Ah, I am meant to be working from home!! Maybe later :-)
