    Yesterday I spent just under a fiver on groceries. I found 5 pence on carpark. :j

    Today is a no spend day. :j and I made a fiver. :j

    Tomorrow will be a more spendy day as I need to go to supermarket. :(

    Re folded all of my t shirts and put them back in the drawer.
    Vacuumed lounge, kitchen and stairs. Removed all sofa cushions and vacced cushions and bases of sofas.
    Tidied and cleaned work tops.
    Wiped down cooker top and tiles behind cooker
    Cleaned sinks upstairs and loo.

    Tomorrow I need to sort out more stuff and get it listed. :)

    Done a load of washing this morning and it's on the line. :)
    Been to asd@ and spent £33.67. Getting scarily close to my budget marker and we are only half way through the month. :o
    I did get some yellow stickered stuff, so that will be a few meals sorted.

    I'm going to make some bread and butter pudding later-we have old bread that needs using up. :)

    Bread and butter pudding turned into an improvised bread pudding. It is rather nice even if I do say so myself. It said to bake in a baking tin...there was so much I split it into 2 tins. It did use up some stuff that needed eating...some of it was even past the best before...:o
    I haven't poisoned anyone yet.
    Oh, and if anyone is interested you can make great breadcrumbs in a nutribullet. :D
    No spend day for me today.
    Yellow stickered tea tonight, maple pork belly slices with either veg or salad-haven't decided yet.
