Time to Face The Music

We love salmon, as you can probably tell. 

It is so quick and easy to cook at home. Will take 10 minutes tops to prepare and cook tonight's dinner and all in will cost less than £5 for the two of us.

@RelievedSheff it is easy to cook I just don't ever think about what else I'm putting with it and neither does my wife beyond a salad. Have to have a go at doing something else with it at some point.

Perhaps you would both benefit from getting a few cook books and trying out some of the recipes in those to get you away from the "something with salad" routine? 

Find some recipes you can cook together as a family.

Yes you can keep some salad but it isn't healthy to have it every day!

Just found out that another member of our team at work is leaving. That will make 5 out of 9 gone in 5 months!

They are going to have to find some more people to pick up some of the work. We can't do it just the four of us.

We have lost a lot of people in our office, still staying with the same organisation but going to a different area, mostly on promotion. I’ve had to pick up a lot of extras that aren’t necessarily within my job description. 

Are they leaving for pastures new?

Salmon is lovely with roast veg or with a stir fry @alt80

They have all left to go and work for other companies. 

We were struggling to do the work with 5 of us so it isn't going to get any better when we will be down to 4 in a few weeks.

Have just been out with the dog for his after work walk and suddenly realised the days are definitely getting longer. We managed the whole walk in daylight today 😀

Spring is on its way.

Yes I’ve noticed the lighter evening too. Love the sky as the sun sets 👍

First repayment for 2022 today. £75 to Paypal Credit. Not sure why but they have not updated the direct debit to £100 yet as requested. 

Other than that it will be a no spends day. Number 7 for January.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was crumpets, the other half has taken his packed lunch to work,I am having egg and chips for my lunch and dinner tonight is a mixed grill. The other half has been pestering for a mixed grill for a couple of weeks now so I have finally caved in.

Today's jobs:

• working from home
• vacuuming the house
• dusting the house
• cleaning the inside of the windows
• cleaning the mirrors
• walking the dog x 2
