in Old style MoneySaving
I came across this tonight, you may already know this website - have you seen her pantry - I WANT ONE! It has some good meals in the meal planner, but she knows about this site as it mentioned on website - and she is writing a book - it will feature old style tips/meal planning and money saving tips, I wonder if Martin knows:confused:(COPYRIGHT)

I have bookmarked this website- I like the look of her website, easy to follow, but thats because she's a woman;)

I hope you find it useful

    Yep, looks fab. I've saved to favourites. Thanks!

    Can anyone tell me if this week's meal plans are listed yet? I've never done it but I'm a bit of a nosey-poke when it comes to everyone's weekly shop/menus. Thanks in advance

    We've got one of those 'walk in' pantries - trouble is, ours is a muddle of saucepans, casserole dishes etc. plus storage jars of all sorts, Not at all as organised or as big as the one on the site:confused: Wish it was.

    Wow I love that pantry!

    She's a very clever lass, I've bookmarked her site so I can read it all later.

    Very pretty girl too. Well done to her!

    Maybe she'll pop in and chat with us? She'd be a good addition to our old style family!

    Wow i agree thats great looking pantry. I used to have a walk in one. But last year when we re modernised the kitchen i decided that i would rather have added kitchen space and it was jiggled and added to the kitchen space. ( Mine was a naughty pantry though. It became home to coats, shoes and anything else that i couldnt think of a home for :( so i was pleased about the change.

    chocolate orange..............our pantry even has an enamel sign on the door saying 'Pig Sty'......................wash basket is in there, two draw chest of drawers for all the tea towel, aprons, oven gloves etc., saucepan rack, veg rack. Mind you, not as bad as it used to be. Was a regular 'dumping ground'.
    OH wanted to know it down for a bigger kitchen and I was horrified at where all the stuff would go......................lol So was he when I pointed it out..........lol
