    He looks very well cared for bubbs. Have you been grooming him? 🤔

    No beetroot in my Aldi today ☹️ so I just bought aubergine and mushrooms. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up beetroot another day.

    I had a bit of cauliflower in the fridge that needed using up so spiced it up with dinner. Just sprayed florets with Frylight and sprinkled with pepper, garlic granules and paprika and baked alongside the chicken. 😋

    Morning all.  The weather is awful!  It's been raining since about 3 o'clock - it woke me up then so may have been raining even earlier!  No problem though I just went back to sleep until about 7 and then lay listening to it on the roof for a while before getting up!


    Glad we went to the shop to return the useless coffee machine yesterday afternoon when we got here.  Wouldn't have fancied having to walk in this weather!  We're just going to have breakfast and then tidy up and go home so lunch and dinner will be at home.


    Today's plan:


    B - fry up with sausages - P; S; F; 2

    L - bought some bits in M&S yesterday while we were in town so will have those with some salad - will need to work out syns later once I know how much of it I've eaten, LOL

    D - goat tagine and herby couscous - P; S; F; 2

    S - crackers & Primula light - HEA2; HEB - if peckish this evening

    HEA1 - milk

    HEA2 - Primula light

    HEB - crackers


    Just copied and pasted this into a document because the internet went down.  Just as I'd saved it the signal came back so ended up copying ad pasting it back here!


    This weather is playing havoc with the internet signal - it just keeps coming and going.  Think I'm going to give up with it if it carries on and wait until I get home.

    Morning all :smiley:

    Tipping it down here too, thought i would get a few extra thousand steps in today, but no luck with the weather like this, she won't go out in the rain!!

    Denise, such a shame about the weather for you and my sister 😥 and anyone else that is away :(

    Here they are together 😍😍 you would think they partied all night and didn't sleep 🤣 such a hard life! although Bramble is getting old now

    Cute doggies bubbs :) We have the puppy back again today as DS1 is sanding/painting at his house. They have until the end of the month to move in, for insurance purposes. Tick tock. Puppy doesn't mind the rain so will go for a walk later.
    Will pop to the high street later as need shampoo. Feel really sorry for the cafes/restaurants who won't make much if anything today given the weather. Will pop to favourite Italian restaurant/deli and buy one of their fab coffees.

    Food today:
    B - WM toast and jam, 2 satsumas - HEXB and 0.5 syns
    L - JP, cottage cheese w/pineapple, salad leaves, tomatoes, pickles - 1 syn
    D - SW cheesy tuna pasta bake (from the 50 GG book) - says 3.5 syns per serving but I will use the cheddar as HEA so just 0.5 syn for the cornflour ;) green beans
    Snacks - apple, melon
    HEXA2 - milk
    Total syns planned - 2

    Have a good day everyone,
    Coxy
