  • Had to open my note tin today in hopes of finding some money for a DP's mother who needed $100, guess who was surprised to find $250 in there?! Me. I will put the rest back away in the back of the shelf since I get money tomorrow and thus don't need the rest of the $150.

    Jakes-mum, have you made them yet? Wondering how it turned/turns out :) I agree with the others who have suggested lightly frying :)
    :)

    Oooo they went down a storm! Fried off the mushrooms and made a very small white sauce (just enough to coat everything so it wasn't too dry . . . Ds didn't even realise it was in there ;)) both kids didn't like the mushroom so will have to [STRIKE]cut it much smaller[/STRIKE] leave it out of theirs next time :D

    Even DH said it was really filling . . . An couldn't finish his plate :eek: this has never happened in the 16 years I've been with him :eek: :rotfl: but big thumbs up all round and hav already been asked when am I making it again :D

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Not a lot to report but I did find 7p in roadkill at the Co-Op this afternoon so that has gone into the jar. Always amazes me that 9 times out of 10 I find money on the floor in that store yet it is in the poorest part of town. Weird!

    Definitely a big success then jakes-mum! :D Glad it went well :)

    I went to church earlier and had a chat with the vicar about getting married in his church, and he said he would like to marry us and asked us to call him during the week to arrange a date to meet up for more of a chat about getting married and to do some paperwork things. Sooooo excited, I almost skipped out of the church :rotfl::D eeeek :T

    I am potting the 60p I had in my purse :)

    A teeny tiny 20p in the pot today

    ummmm I may have accidently spent £155 on pand0ra charms :eek: darn that bloomin grabbit board! In my defence I did get 2 pairs of platinum plated earrings and 2 leather pand0ra bracelets (totalling £120) for free :o so really it had to be done didn't it . . . and half the charms DH is hiding away for me for xmas (its the 2 I informed him he was buying me so it kind of made sense to buy them while they were offering free stuff for a £75 spend ;)) and the rest im buying myself with my birthday/xmas savings so not really a naughty spend was it???

    New mantra! must not visit the grabbit board, must not visit the grabbit board, must not visit the grabbit board!

  • Evening all

    Happy weekend's potting to report; the car boot sale yesterday raised about 25 pounds after taking out entry fee and bribes to keep DS and DD quiet :D Shame about all the stuff that has had to come home again and live in boxes in the garage until the next time!

    Also 10p from a (non-live) trouser rummage before putting said item of clothing in the washing basket (why does nobody in my family ever put their laundry where it belongs instead of leaving it in a heap on the floor :mad:)

    Not so good was the school shoe run; pay more for them than for my own :( Let's hope the kids' feet don't grow too much for a while now so that we can stretch a whole school year out of them again...

    jakes-mum, what is a grabbit board? Can I use it for my Trollbeads if it works for your Pandora charms :rotfl:

    Have a good week everybody, and long may the sun keep shining to keep us smiling!!
