Spendy days yesterday and today - petrol, some food shopping (including Filippo Berio Gustato Fruttato Olive Oil for £0.99 at Mr M, normally £3.99, on offer at half price, plus money-off voucher as detailed here http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=61364911&postcount=1), and a rolling pin of all things!. I've been practising my pizza-making skills, to save money, and couldn't find my rolling pin. Made enough dough for two, so put half in fridge for some time over the weekend. And used my HM pizza sauce that I'd made in the slow cooker. The dough prepping was a bit fraught (need to practise my dough-handling skills!) but the whole thing turned out alright in the end.
You can see I went for the 'rustic' look
Out tonight with family and friends for a belated birthday celebration :beer:

Ok, Freeby, pass me the bunch of cowslips because I have hit my second target and now have 15 NSDs somewhere amongst all those piled up in the Cauldron of Doom!
Now, dare I try and set a new target?One life - your life - live it!0 -
Well, how can I resist the sunflowers and butterflies? (The prize for reaching a third target)

I hope you are all well and catching some sunshine if it is around in your area. It has made an unusual guest appearance in NI today:p!! It is my Birthday today and I am going out for dinner and some red stuff later:). I will resume gathering NSDs in June if that is ok with everyone, as I have been awol for quite some time!
Happy Birthday Red, hope you enjoyed your dinner and, of course, the red stuff
It would be lovely to see you back here in June, you don't need to ask, we've missed you. Hope things are starting to settle down for you xThe time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

Good Morning
Back to my usual morning post and it feels much better
A small update again this morning but lots of NSDs captured and targets met
Evertheoptimist – I am glad it all went well for the funeral.:) How is our little NSD baby? He seems to bringing you lots of NSDs, NSD #13 & 14 is brilliant, and it means you have hit target.
That is fantastic, really well done.:j:j
Heyjude – A brilliant NSD #11 captured. :T Really well done.
If – A lucky for you NSD #13 in the bag,:T really well done.
MissE - Another one in the pot and you are up to NSD #11. :T You are doing really well so far, hope you managed to grab that other one too.
Nargle – Cowslips are heading in your direction with a second target of NSD #15 hit. :j:j:j How brilliant are you?The sunflowers and butterflies are on their way too but you have to get to 17 first. :rotfl: Good luck.:)
Sazzie – NSD #16 all tucked away. :T Well done.How did that shopping go? Did you manage another one?
Spoony – How many times did you manage to get discombobulated into the conversation? :rotfl:Your NSDs are coming in thick and fast now with another two captured taking you up to NSD #17.:T:T That halo is sparkling
Zenshi – Good for you, not only for grabbing NSD #10:T but also for sticking at it and trying to grab as many NSDs as possible.It doesn’t matter if we get to target or not, it is the concentrating on our money that is the important thing.:D
