P.S.Kemiera, you have just reminded me I have a couple of jars of mincemeat in the cupboard anyone got the flapjack recipe to hand ???JackieO - there's a link to it in the first post.
I used this recipe a while back to use up a jar of mincemeat found during the kitchen cupboard sort-out and can vouch for its yummy-ness! Be kind to others and to yourself too.0 -

Haven't really done much MMMing recently, been working heaps so I guess mending our finances
On a day off today so have done 3 loads of washing. All line dried and will shortly be minimising the ironing pile while watching a film.
Tea tonight was chicken salad using lettuce from the garden, very yummy. Made some croutons using the heels of some bread that have been in the freezer a while.
Noticed that the PJs I was planning to put on tonight have a wee hole in the knee so will mend them over the weekend.
Hope everyone has a good weekend Mortgage 26.4.25 - £108,500 1.11.26 - £101,541.67 (6.4% paid)
