  • Yikes lovefullshelves! Good for not spending but maybe try something less drastic to get your NSDs next time? ;) Hope you are okay and recovering well!

    I am declaring day 7 again. Because I forgot that yesterday morning I bought some apple cider vinegar online. Oops! Hoping I can snag my 5 in a row next week. Will be planning and plotting on Saturday!

    Well looks like another NSD here, mainly because lunch breaks seem to be a thing of fiction this week. Did have a wee spend on some moisturiser on fleabay yesterday, but a decent price for a posh cream and I do notice the difference when I use other brands ( been using one up I had stashed away so :A)

    Blooming cold here ATM. Feet like ice.

    Will ' need' to spend at some point as I want to make some cupcakes in my mixer and need not only ingredients but baking tins and piping equipment, blooming heck this is becoming a costly hobby :o

    Good Evening Folks,
    :)
    A very cold day in NI today, although thankfully, I wasn't out in the cold for long:p. I am able to declare NSD9 for today:)
    Flubberzing, I hope you like the new car and health to drive:)
    Kerri, I got bun trays from a well known £ bargain store and they do very nicely for Muffins/Cupcakes. You will have to invest in a decent piping bag though and even the disposable ones will split as butter cream can be quite firm to pipe!
    Lovefullshelves, hope you are doing ok after the surgery
    Sazzie, thanks for the in row updates. I may be able to avail of your services in this regard if I ever manage to get any NSDs in a row:o
    ETO, thanks for the updates:T
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    £2 savings jar £300:D
    Total credit card debts £1250:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: - Will I ever learn!!
