Even though it's the Summer Holidays and life is a little bit chaotic around here at the minute, you'll be pleased to know that I've been sticking to my meal planning (and my diet). I haven't been posting it because it's been a bit samey samey but this week I have a few interesting things planned so I thought I'd share it with you.Monday - Barbecue chicken using up 4 chicken breasts I got reduced to £1.35 at our local supermarket. I've picked up a few bargains recently so I have a nicely stocked freezer at the minute. See below for the recipe.Tuesday - We're having friends around … [Read more...]

Saturday is Caption Day – The one with the awkward holiday dance….
I love Saturday mornings as I usually get up early while the kids are still in bed and spend a lovely half an hour or so looking through photos to find a suitable one to use for Saturday is Caption Day.

There's lots of apps out there that can help you save in all kinds of ways but here's some of my … [Read more...]
Proud to be British….
In the last fortnight I've found myself watching sports I've never even watched before, let alone enjoyed. I've stood and screamed at the TV, willing Team GB to do well and I've sat on the floor and cried big happy tears when one of Team GB has done well.I was especially excited when we found out that we have our very own gold postbox about twenty minutes drive from our house after Kat Copeland won Gold in the Women's Double Scull race and we couldn't wait to go see it.The picture's not very good as we had to be quick due to the rain and the rather long queue of people wanting to see … [Read more...]
The one with One Direction….
Miss Frugal loves One Direction, particularly Harry (the cute one with the curly hair).So when I got an e mail from Persil inviting me to take her to the Leeds Party in the Park to see One Direction perform live along with lots of other acts (most of whom I had never heard of but Miss Frugal assured me they were 'famous'), I found it hard to say no.I really wanted to say no actually because Leeds is a good hour and a half journey on the train from my house and the fact that the expected crowd at the Party in the Park was around 70,000 made me more than a little nervous, especially as … [Read more...]
