Hello everyone

We have made it home :j so if i get carried away with lots of :-:D :T and ..excuse me, only brothers PC threw me off everytime i used them

Im home, im home we set off AT 6:30 this morning..our ferry wasn't until 1:30pm but we were hoping they would let us take an early one..and the lovely man did.. apparently there should be a charge -but there was a fault with our booking which meant we got away with it :T other wise it would have meant not getting home until nearly midnight :eek:

So todays food has not been quite what i would have wanted -but hey ho -it could have been much worse
I had :-
a chicken salad baguette -proper chunks of chicken breast too not that reconstitueted stuff
on the ferry i had a hot chocolate -but it was only a cup... I won't drink tea and coffee when im out as its always really strong n stewed and as my dad put it i like it like cat wee :rotfl:
We got in at 5pm... and i dragged a couple of pieces of HM steak n mushroom pie out of the freezer and some carrots, broccoli and nobbies that i had blanched a few weeks ago and got them on to cook whilst i had a bath..so thats us with happy tummies :T

Everything has been left in the car...well its minus 2 so i think everything will be fine out there until the morning

Keiss - a slow cooker can be a god send..making the cheapest cuts lovely n tender.... frogga please tell me MR frogga doesn't switch off the fridge/freezer when you go out :rotfl:
I do have a bread machine, but only ever used it to make the dough as i like to bake it in the oven... so now it has been banished to the basement and i make it by hand ....

Hopefully things will get back to normal over the next couple of days -hubby back off to work on Monday -so im refusing to shop until then - we have plenty in the freezer -and car to be fine -plus it will make my 1st week of this months grocery challenge a "no spend" week :j

I hope everyone is ok... will catch up on the days events properly later.... will be back later - hope you have all had a good day and got off to a good start :T
By the way did i mention - im home :j :rotfl:

What a pain! You could always imagine the office mouse wees on them during the night ~ that should put you off I'm full of helpful ideas aren't I?;)

Interesting thought..... now I'm worried that the food deprivation causes the subscribers to this thread to go a bit mad:rolleyes:
I love my slow cooker.....it's gorgeous, healthy, cheap.... bit like it's owner

Today I've eaten toast, banana and a drizzle of honey, lunch was beans on toast and tea was veggie sausage, mash and sprouts. I'll probably have some supper as we had tea early due to OH having had nothing all day I had a sneaky slip on the scales this morning and I was tha same weight as I was when I started :rotfl: I'll do a 'proper' WI on Friday though. Bye for now :A
