Yes @bubbs, the roads are pretty quiet but the supermarket car parks are rammed. 🤣
I think you're right about many parents still working. We've been to our local NT property this afternoon and there were loads of children there (it's decorated on a Cinderella theme for Christmas), some with parents but the majority with grandparents.
DH got me more potatoes this morning, expensive ones from Sainsburys. 🤣
I did open some chocolate marzipan last night. DH is shocked when he sees the wrappers in the bin because he's not used to me eating sweets. 😁
Tonight we're having beige snacks (spring rolls, samosas etc) with our dinner as I'm determined to enjoy my extra syns.
Today's plan -
B- HEB toast, bacon, eggs (P), baked beans (F), HEA milk for drinks
L- LO pork casserole (P, S, F)
D- chicken stir fry with rice (P. S, F), snacks
Syns - who knows and who cares 🤣0 -
Hi all,
Safe travels @milann and Merry Christmas to you xx
We have been to T’s and spent far too much! Having MIL and FIL for afternoon buffet on CE now and DS1 and DIL will be here in the evening. We will do Nigella’s ham during the day then have party food and snacks for the evening. We did scan and pack and got checked at the till - 17 items - only DH had forgotten to scan a slab of Pepsi Max so they had to do our entire trolley. Walk of shame.SW pork schezuan tonight and chicken pesto pasta tomorrow. I am giving blood tomorrow so will want something stodgy!Have a good evening all

Me too @Coxy11. I did a scan shop and had forgotten to scan a case of wine. I even called the the assistant over myself to approve the alcohol sale and then realised what I'd done (or rather hadn't done). 🤣
Enjoy your holiday @milann and just 2lbs short of the target you set yourself isn't bad going. 👍
DH's eyes lit up when he saw the snacks with the stir fry so well worth the syns or even the swips. 🤣0 -
