    NSD for Tuesday and Wednesday.

    Grocery shopping tomorrow, so checked what I already had in the cupboards, fridge and freezer to help me make a meal plan and shopping list.
    Also an opportunity to use anything that needs using up before it grows legs and makes a run for the door.
    Tonight's dinner is Country Vegetable and Bean Stew, or as my delightful son likes to call it, "Bin Soup"  😆

    NSD number 8 for me today. 
    Yesterday I contributed to a fund to help the family of someone I know who has died, 🥲 I also booked cinema tickets, paying £10 instead of nearly £30 thanks to a voucher I’d been given. 

    I also bought myself a breakfast! Can’t remember the last time I did that. And it’s not likely to happen again any time soon!
