Thank you everyone, and what a lovely collection of visitors and eatables.
I like cucumber too @beanielou but todays food included scrambled eggs with cheese this morning, 'all the cheese' lentil chips (my current favourite snack) and slices of goats cheese and stilton for not really dinner.
I made carrot and coriander soup today, and have frozen a couple of things to eat later in the week. Vaguely defeats the point of trying to empty the freezer but I am out tomorrow night and the soup will get eaten by the eldest in my absence.
M4rks gave me a 20% off clothes that ended today so I have ordered new thermals. Everything I own is tatty and/or too big so a sensible investment.
I also had a naughty spend on some rather lovely pink suede high top converse using a v4ry 25% off code, re-living my college years I think. They make me smile every time I look at them.

Continuing the chorus of oohs over pink converse. Definitely worth spending on something that makes you smile and which you can catch glimpses of through the day.6
