    Me too. I have a whole shelf full of them but this one has actually saved me money. Even my DS2 will eat a lot of the veggie meals which means instead of cooking two meals each night I only cook one. Saving on time , money and fuel :D

    That is good news. :money:

    Pitta bread and avocado - very nice!

    You have an impressive sig The Only Girl.


    Thanks marmite, and everyone for the warm welcome. I am so sorry for the late reply. Haven't logged on here for a looooong time. I think I must have forgotten I signed up for this challenge. But I'm back now.

    I've had 7 LTW'S so far. I am half way through my 8th. Not a very exciting one but I have brown baps with wafer thin chicken and sunflower spread. Accompanied by banana and some easy peelers. Will try and make it more exciting next time. Have a nice day everyone.

    Today is yogurt and stewed rhubarb and a sad looking banana.

    Free lunch today! Work thing, mini pasties, smoked salmon rolls and fruit. Yum. 3/3 free so far this week. Not that home made lunches are free but I do use leftovers from the previous days supper etc so it feels free. Significantly cheaper than the £5a day M&S habit I had until recently
