This week we're going full-on Slimming World with our meals as I try and get my head back in the game after a couple of weeks of making excuses for reasons why I can have a day off (or two, or three).I've had such a lot on over the last couple of weeks that it's been easy to justify in my head that I deserve a treat or that it would just be easier to not stick to the plan for that day but in reality, nothing feels as good as putting on a pair of trousers in the size down from what you normally wear or being able to zip up my pesky raincoat without sucking in. ;-)I want to lose … [Read more...]
#MealPlanningMonday – the one where the slow cooker works overtime….
This week is going to be one of those week's where there simply aren't enough hours in the day!First up, let me share this week’s meal plan with you: Monday Today, I'm going to be reheating the amazing Goulash that I made yesterday using a recipe from the Pinch of Nom cookbook.

How to build a Frugal pantry….
Today I’m going to share with you how to build an old-fashioned frugal pantry which is going to help you stick to your meal plan and even allow you to cope with last minute changes without having to pop to the shop.Why you need a frugal pantry I don't know about you but I very rarely manage to stick to my meal plan for a whole week. Most of the time, I'm pretty good most of the time but there are often last-minute changes for lots of reasons – it could be that I'm having a disorganised day and haven't left myself enough time to cook what I had planned, I … [Read more...]
