The last meal planning Monday of April.  Where has this month gone.  The weather last week was hit and miss and was dodging between rain downfalls and sun.  We are finally seeing Freddie’s chicken pox scabs disappear too and he has gone back to nursery. Sausage casserole bake Pizza & chips Pukka Pie, mashed potato, […]

Well the run up to the Easter holidays was a little bit of a disaster as Freddie came down with the dreaded chicken pox so our plan of some quality family time and outings went out the window.  Thankfully he is on the mend now and should be back to nursery this week but has […]

We have got quite a few birthday’s this month so busy times ahead. We all got struck down with colds over the weekend too so felt a bit sorry for ourselves, but we’re on the mend now.  I still need to go food shopping too so are living out the freezer. Meal planning seems to […]

WOW! What a shitty week last week was for us and our family, but we will get through it.    Anyways it’s a new week, new dawn, and a new meal planning. The weather didn’t help really either as it was cold, wet and miserable but hopefully we will start to see the appearance of […]

The sun made an appearance again last week and on Tuesday I was working from home and I managed to get 2 loads of washing on the line outside to dry, it felt great.  We had a lovely weekend of visit family & me seeing a friend who popped over Saturday and we were able […]

The last week of March already, where did it go.  It has been a fairly busy month with birthday’s but I quite like it a bit mad.  We have been pretty good at sticking to our meal planning, and haven’t wasted much as if i’ve done batch cooking I’ve frozen the remaining for another meal. […]

Last week we had snow, hail & rain hit us the weekend all in the space of about an hour then storm “Gareth” hit us in the week which was great fun….Not.  So hoping this week will be better. Did storm “Gareth” hit where you live? This week it is my nephew Jack’s birthday, can’t […]

Last week was OK, the weather was better but roll on summer now.  It was my Dad’s birthday so we went over for tea Monday evening.  The rest of the week just went by in a blur. This week again we are trying new meals so will let you know how they go down with […]

Seriously where did February disappear too? Last weekend went by so quickly too as it was my friend’s wedding Saturday and we were child free for the whole day and evening, which was lovely but didn’t half miss him.  I also found out I was going to become an Auntie again, this will be nephew/niece […]

Another week and nearing the end of another month. I was solo parenting last weekend as the husband, his brother & their friend went off to Amsterdam for a music festival and then this weekend it’s my friends wedding on the Saturday and Freddie’s off to stay at the In laws. I’m just counting down […]
