Hello back to work, zero time to read very sorry, don't want to be rude just showing up randomly.
Promise I will catch up at some point.
Lunches
Mon - currant bun not great.
Tuesday - instant rice and left over Korma - again fairly gross.
Wednesday
Thursday Friday = Quiche (supermarket bought), mini scotch egg x2, salad (stolen shamelessly from the guinea pigs)
so as this is my first time in the Challenge - do these all count? - I didn't make the Quiche etc?
thanks XXNevertheless she persisted.0 -

B17C, if the headache didn't go after caffeine did it maybe trigger a migraine?
No I don't think so, I very rarely get migraines and I drink tea regularly... I think it's caffeine, sugar and carb withdrawal!! XxCredit Card Debt:[STRIKE]£12991[/STRIKE] £12526

So sorry that you are still suffering though... That must be utterly miserable. Could it be eye strain or something like that?
Thank youI swear I just didn't know what to do with myself, and I couldn't sleep!
I have regular eye tests coz I wear lenses... wondering if it could be due to coming in and out of a very bright kitchen to a dimly lit restaurant 500 times a night but I'm sure it's just my body having a hissy fit coz I'm not giving it so much crap!!!

4/20 done. Early lunch today yummy tomato pesto and cheese sandwich. An apple - boring.
Don't have much time for lunch today which is good as I would be tempted to buy a nice snack.
Going to buy some biscuits or cake or something from the shops tonight so I can have something else as a little treat for lunch.0 -

This is me, I come home for lunch too and go past shopsIt can be a test of will when your hungry and going past.
I always feel so much better though when I don't give in.0 -
Juno hope all is okay with your Dad?
Buffy I'd say that countes as you didn't buy it out at lunchtime for full whack
I have 9p porridge again this morning (geting bored of it again but it's soooo cheap) and lunch is lo hm oven chips and buttered bread. I'll microwave the chips before I assemble the sarni.
I also have a few chrimbo chocs stashed in my drawer in case I get the munchies laterApril 2021 Grocery Challenge 34.29 / 2500 -
