What a day! My peaceful lazy morning was rudely interrupted by Mr Frugal noticing that the freezer decided that today was the day it needed to defrost itself. I personally think it was a little bit jealous of all the attention it's Smeg counterpart has been getting latelyand thought it would get a bit of attention of it's own.It must have had it's little meltdown overnight because everything in there was completely defrosted so I have now had to spend the rest of the day cooking up a storm trying to use everything that I could.I made chicken and ham pie and a small corned beef and … [Read more...]
National Peanut Butter Cookie Day….
I bet you didn't know that today is National Peanut Butter Cookie Day (well it is in the US anyway). In honour of this very special, celebrated day I thought that not only would I share a super duper easy recipe for Peanut Butter Cookies, I'll also share with you some very interesting facts about Peanuts and peanut butter cookies. American eat about 700 million pounds of peanut butter each year. People who have a phobia of peanut butter sticking to the roof of their mouth have 'arachibutyrophobia'. It takes about 550 peanuts to make a 12 ounce jar of creamy peanut butter.Ok, so I … [Read more...]

My Little Girl….
Aaagh I really can't believe what Miss Frugal has just said to me. We just popped to the shop and she announced that she didn't want any sweets as she was on a diet! She's 7!!!!! I was a bit shocked to say the least so we came and dropped the shopping off and went for a nice walk - just the two of us. We had a good talk and it turns out that she doesn't think that she's fat or that she needs to lose weight, she's just learning a lot about healthy eating at school and she wants to eat more healthily at home. Don't get me wrong, we do eat quite healthily (well, the kids do anyway) and we … [Read more...]
Did you used to do this…?
I came home from work the other day to a beautiful present - a home made bottle of perfume!Remember when you were little and you thought that if you put petals in a bottle of water it made perfume? Someone (not me) has shared this with Miss Frugal and we now have five bottles of the stuff sitting outside our back door. Anybody want one? … [Read more...]
I’m back….
What with half term last week and the stressful week I've had this week I've not been around much. It's been horrible at work lately as there've been loads of rumours flying round about some big announcement that was coming, I usually try not to get caught up in rumours at work as it's a bit like chinese whispers but this time I just couldn't help it. Anyway, the announcement was made yesterday and while it does affect a lot of my colleagues, I am completely unaffected which is good for me but obviously the people who are affected are upset which makes me sad too. I'm off today to I'm … [Read more...]
