    Yeah a NSD today💪

    Am considering batch cooking, but it will take a lot of preparation as I don't have many plastic boxes and do have a freezer full of frozen veg etc. Sadly if I had too-good-to-go it would probably mean more food waste.

    15/19 Please @cathybird Thank youXX I hope you are having a good Sunday? I am!
    @CrazyBee787 good to hear you're enjoying Sunday :) Mine hasn't been too bad! Rather grey and dull weather here sadly, but it is February after all. xx :):) 
    My Sunday is good because I feel a wave of positivity about a potential new job, also I feel a bit happier. It is rather gloomy here also but I won't let it weigh me down. I am glad yours isn't too bad. Enjoy the eveningXX
