    Brilliant work on the decluttering. We are currently having a splurge on this ourselves. It's so satisfying moving things on & freeing up space. I have a wall unit targeted for this week's efforts.

    Thank you :)  It does feel so freeing seeing gaps appear.  I'm hoping to have a good push over the holidays.

    Congratulations on the weight loss @jwil. The H@iry Dieter's minestrone soup includes 2 courgettes. The recipe is very adaptable, so don't worry if you don't have all the ingredients, want to omit some, or want to add some.

    Thank you :)  I'll have a look at the recipe as I do like minestrone!
