This is a bit of a back to front meal plan because I'm going to tell you what we ate last week instead of what we'll be eating this week.....Seeing as last week was National Vegetarian Week we decided to have a (mostly) veggie week which was great for me because it gave me a bit of an excuse to cook a few different things as I'm a bit stuck in a rut with our meals at the moment. I've got back into the habit of cooking the same old meals which is not only boring but it also makes me feel a bit bleugh about cooking so I'm more tempted to not stick to the week's plan.The veggie meals … [Read more...]

Family Friendly Frugal meals – Slow Cooker Chicken Curry….
My freezer is full of supermarket bargains at the minute so we're going to have a cheap week this week hopefully. I managed to get a ham joint reduced to £2.30 the other day so I've cooked that and what we didn't use for tea was sliced up and made up into a few small portions that were put in separate sandwich bags and added to the freezer. I can use them for the wraps on Monday and the pizza on Wednesday. We also got some reduced chicken and cod as well which will do for Tuesday and Thursday night's teas and I even got some cheap sausages for the casserole on Friday night. I know I'm … [Read more...]

Our week in pictures – the bumper edition….
I can't believe that we're nearly half way through March already, it's just flying by and it seems like only yesterday that we were seeing the New Year in!January and at least half of February passed us by in a blur of germs and illness (you probably already know this though as I moaned about it at least twice a week on here) and then I started my new job which meant another few weeks went by in a blur of business and extra hours at work and so far, March is disappearing just as fast without me having a chance to slow it down.And on top of the general business of life at the minute, … [Read more...]
A very modern Mothers Day….
Generally I'm not a big fan of Mothers Day.Don't get me wrong though, I love the homemade cards and the cuddles that I get and I certainly don't object to the gifts but special days make me remember what I don't have. I don't have my Mam any more and although she's in my thoughts all year round, days like this focus my mind on her much more than usual. Facebook had me almost in tears this morning as almost every post is someone saying Happy Mothers Day to their Mum and I desperately wish I could do the same!But I can't so today, I'll be keeping very busy and enjoying all the love … [Read more...]
