  • NSD for me - also known as working all day :)

    DS has been home for less than a day and already left my cupboards bare! Asking where all the biscuits and cakes are now. I can see I need to do some careful purchasing and a bit of batch baking.I forgot how much food he can eat, he's a lanky thing too.

    No scores on the doors today - as nothing's really changed.
