    Fabulous day at the lake, yesterday, with my husband and rescue dog Gypsy. She’s young and as no one else was there, we let her off lease to run and play. She was a joy to watch.
    Overprepare, then go with the flow.

  • Went to Iceland Food Warehouse to buy 4 Chinese for £5, made my selection and when I got to checkout, the offer had ended the day before so put them back, did not have room for them really. Also had vouchers for a £1 pizza for free and a £1 ice cream dessert for free. Pizza is in fridge so will have some of theta tonight and had the 4 mint choc ices, I love them but seldom have so they will be in freezer for at least a year. Went out for lunch so nothing out.

    IN nothing, I have to go to Aldi for chicken thighs for the dog, but I don`t count these in my freezer stock, hopefully I will get nothing else.
    OUT 2 of the y.s. bacon chops with some leftovers, mashed swede and cauli florets, will make a parsley sauce too I think.
