Flagging a bit as I've just been through the herbs and spices and chucked loads away as they were well out of date! I'm sure they wouldn't kill me but at least I can now see the shelf the remaining ones are sat on :rotfl:
Just making a quick cuppa then I'll get back to it
Honest
I keep a list of mine stuck to the inside of the cupboard door.
Because I have two bottles of nutmeg:cool:
The list names them and the state (ie ground). It has revolutionised pre-recipe shopping list prep;)
Bathroom gleaming. Have decided to store all lotions and potions which I kept by the basin in the cupboard.
Almost everything that has been washed has been ironed now.:TDon't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Someone 'kindly' offered to do that for me not so long ago. I was fuming!
My cousin said to me on boxing day 'I just want you to be happy' I said 'I am happy.' She replied 'Oh I know you are but I just want you to be settled and happy with someone.' !!!!!!? So I repeated 'I am happy'.
I know she means well but a relationship doesn't equal happiness.
No flying today. I have man flu and I'm exhausted, I'm gutted as I was due to give blood tomorrow
An early night for me and then my end of year spring clean can occur tomorrow.

Sweep/mop/hoover floors you can now see Done
Extras
New year, New you, what would you like to learn to do this year (much more inspiring than the same old loosing weight and exercising) - for me it is to make sourdough rolls and learn more knitting techniques Would like to give this more thought so it will be done before the end off the week.
Meal plan for the week WIP
Count some blessings from the year gone by Wonderful idea. Lots to write for this one and, again, it will be done.
Chill something fizzy to toast the New Year In progress
Feeling even better about this now I've checked them off. I've also done bits in the kitchen and written up the minutes from this afternoon's meeting. On a roll!!

Trying a new cake recipe which I have converted from cups and subbed some ingredients, it has risen rather more than I intended ie out of the tin and is taking it's time to cook, not at all sure what it will turn out like.
CBA to do anything else today now so I'll watch WSM with DS3.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
