Oh god all the desert talk and I'm over here trying to convince myself that I do not need any chocolate or ice cream or cake - especially after watching bake off last night and only having some protein yogurt to get me through cake week!
I like the idea of having different pots for each month's worth of expenses but think I have enough savings pots going on at the moment, don't think I could add in any more!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20175 -

And I mentioned that I was doing my best not to overfill the freezer!
Managed to stop the biscuits going off by converting them into an ice cream sandwich 😁
Now have more freezer space for, maybe, ice cream?If it's not adding up, compound it!5 -
