  • It actually snowed here yesterday! The first time since my injury and I certainly knew about it! Very close to being as painful as the original break! On the bright side it meant I refused to leave my desk and then straight home without a shop in sight ;)

    Here it is NSD 6 :D I'm so pleased I've got this far, particularly after 3 days away :)

    Oh dear, pizza dough is surprisingly easy when you crack it (before I started making them recently I'd only made it at school, with the result of a soggy bottom (pizza not me). Now I know it was because of using plain not strong flour (school said just use plain).
    What ingredients did you use and how did you cook it?

    No NSD here, needed to get cat food and also OH some Chinese curry concentrate (both from house budget though) but then remembered I needed 'lady bits' which I felt guilty about taking from the house money, and hemming web for OH trousers. Annoyed with myself as I have a £5 off £25 voucher I wanted to use in m and s on their dine in and some other bits and I left it at home, so that's prob another NSD lost :mad:

    Oh, and I spent £60 at the vets for mogs boosters today, nearly forgot the appt :eek:

    No bills out of the bank today, and I didn't need anything from the shops (fortunately, as it would have had to be a desperate need to get me out in the weather we've had since late morning!), so today makes NSD #6 and puts me just about on target for this month ;T

    Need to shop either tomorrow or Friday for bits for Friday, Saturday and Sunday (getting an extra long weekend with OH because of Friday being Valentine's Day ;)), but not expecting anything to go out of the bank on either day. So potentially 3 more NSDs in the next 4 days if I make myself a proper shopping list and make sure I get everything on it in one day :)

    I'd rather shop on Friday if nothing I decide to make needs preparing too far ahead of the game (menu planning tonight/tomorrow) - means the veg I pick up should actually still look edible on Sunday, as I find some of the stuff from A1di looks sorry for itself once past it's date and with a lot of what I but it's rare to get more than 1 or 2 days on them :(
