I think some of the pate might end up going that way red. Nobody wants listeria!

I am living vicariously through your cheese feast, I want to roll around in a cranberry and brie experience, stuff my little face with stilton and crackers.. white cream liqueur in hot chocolate after gardening- can I move in.?
Next lifetime can I come back as a mouse in your house ?
However you are safe this lifetime as 7 days off dairy and I feel so much better.. so annoying. I can breathe properly, no coughing, scalp excema much better, stomach is happy, my friend today gazed at my skin with wonder (partly the led mask)
DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff. Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.

You are feeling so much better already .. it’s tough removing foods you love at the start but you can find new replacements to distract from the loss of the love of the cheese…June 2017 - £295k mortgage/htb

LOL at the cheese. I keep gazing at a mini Xmas cake I bought with a view to decluttering it - but it has a date in May on it so it will keep... No rush. I was very happy to find more match makers though.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

I can't believe we have so much to declutter SH. I purposely didn't buy much in the way of festive fare. It seems to have reproduced in the fridge 😂Humdinger1 said:Speaking of mice, has anyone seen the story about a mouse who was tidying the shed every night?! Shades of the Tailor of Gloucester.
