Fri-yay 😁
Working in the office today but finishing at lunchtime. Had to stop Mr SA getting up at 6am he can knock that on the head!
Won't be a NSD as I really need to go to Lid! on the way home plus I plan to pick up some of the £1 strawberries and raspberries from the market stall in the city centre.
Today's exercise is walking to/from work plus trying a new session on the FitOn app at 5pm a barre/pilates fusion. Only last 20 minutes and should give me a good stretch out before I jump in the bath.
Tonight's dinner is the miso glazed salmon I mentioned yesterday. Will need to add some more veg to it as just leeks won't be enough veg for me, I do love my veg. The tofu recipe I made yesterday was lovely and would definitely make it again.

I agree about loving lots of veg. DH gets really fed up with the amount of veg I make him eat. He's rather have loads of potatoes and no veg...lolMaking the debt go down and savings go up
