It snowed ;)

We woke up to a nice shower of icing sugar covering the ground this morning:P I was up and ready nice and early for a Saturday, Andy was at the office today so I got up with him when he was getting ready, but the kids had other ideas, no rushing to get dressed and ready at all so much so that by the time we got outside the icing sugar near our house had gone :( so we took the dogs for a walk in the search of snow, found some on the next side street, so armed with our carrier bag ;) - we filled it with snow and then came back home to build a snowman.... he's only small (just over a ft ) but very cute.... not sure what the neighbours thought with our snow collecting tho :P, the kids had loads of fun...


Food today was, muller and apple for brekkie, cheese sandwich for lunch, with handful of quavers 1.5 syns, and a banana and a pear, and tea was SW chips and turkey burger. Feeling very hungry tonight, so going to use my last A in a mo to make some rice pudding ;) Went to two parties today and was very good.... had celery, cuecumber, olive and a dash of hummous ;) Hoping for a lose on Monday after being such a good girl all week :P Just made some yummy roasted chick pea, forgot just how good they taste :) Off to the GMex tomorrow and have just been very good and made a pack lunch to take, cous cous with carrot, chickpeas and tomato and rice with apple for pud ;) Just off to shine my halo and then bedtime - Nite xx

Last Day of Jan...

Cant believe its the last day of January already, this month has flown by - the weather today has been awful, we have had a bit of everything, rain, sun, wind, hail, thunder, lightening and snow..... all in a day, and its really cold too :P

Today was a green day, breakfast was porridge and apple, lunch was a jacket potato and beans followed by a muller and fruit and tea was quorn, pepper,mushroom and tomato lasagne, came up with a fab topping for the lasagne, I melted down 6 laugh cow x triangles in a pan,very slowly, then added a small amount of skim milk - and then poured it on top of the lasagne before putting in the oven... it was delish.

Cant get on UKS tonight :( so have been bust tidying the room down the stairs to make as a craft room for me.... doesnt really look like I have got very far tho, still cant move in there :(

Went to the Bead Warehouse today with Shirley and popped in to Cheshire Oaks for a bit of retail therapy and a starbucks. I treated myself and had a skinny peach and strawberry muffin and a coffee.... medicinal purposes of course to cheer me up ;) came back and had a quick glance in the book to see how many syns and was horrifed to see 14.5 syns in a skinny muffin :( ho hum....

Lunch was 3 krisprolls, laugh cow, celery, tom, and cherries/grapes. Tea was steamed salmon, sprouts, carrot/swede mash, brocolli and green beans followed by cherries, and of course my usual choccie treat... Dairy Milk tonight 10 syns.
