    What is the decluttering challenge? I think I should give it a go!

    Mashed potato = potato ricer 👌🏻

    I still remember the ungrateful face I did when chef FIL gifted me one for Christmas but boy was he right!

    Another one after the decluttering challenge.  
    I've done so much but there is still more to go.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    A potato ricer also allows you to turn ice cream into 'spaghetti' and if you add strawberry sauce on top you get 🍝 Spaghetti Ice!

    DS is a strange toddler as he's not keen on ice cream! He tried some at Center Parcs and enjoyed it after an initial shriek at how cold it was, but since then he refused our attempts to feed him more.
