Thank goodness for maths, since MrsG is clearly not up for a science experiment! 😂 Visual would still have been better though...

Yes thanks, being even more lazy than usual, but with better food! 😆
A couple of quiet days with some family zoom calls and quiz games.

I'm having a very relaxing time. We saw extended family Christmas Day which was lovely. I have begun a new novel too and am on Chapter 4 already so really pleased with how it is going. The first chapter seemed to just flow out of me in a rush so I was thrilled. I have to keep busy. Not back working until next Monday - and even then will be from home. DH not back at work until 7/1.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality

I'm trying to hide from Turkey...
MrsG did a lovely Christmas dinner with all the trimmings, so I now look like a human Xmas pudding...
Boxing Day was Turkey in gravy with the fried left over veggies.
Sunday was Turkey soup...
Monday was Turkey sandwiches...
Today will be curried Turkey...
I think we're then freezing the remainder as portions so we can fondly remember Turkey-geddon in the future...
Don't get me started on the boiled ham...
(It was a turkey crown to feed "up to" four people. I've christened it Christine... It never seems to shrink.
I think it snacks on other things in the fridge during the night...😱)If it's not adding up, compound it!10 -
Are you sure it's not compounding while you're not looking? 😉
Merry (belated) Christmas! Hope it was a good one. 😊MFW: Starting balance, Jan 21: £102,950

Love it. We are alternating between turkey and roast pork. My turkey said feeds 2-3 and I bought 2... There are 4 of us.... Lots left even though I only bought the crown...Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality

Thanks both, safely portioned and frozen!
It was nice and quiet thanks.
Looking forward to next year's, when hopefully it will be in person rather than over a screen.If it's not adding up, compound it!1
