Come and share them with me Grin

EssentialFattyAcid · 21/06/2012 19:35

Beamur · 21/06/2012 19:35

YANBU

PavlovtheCat · 21/06/2012 19:35

YABU

I could make that money go so much further in the off licence Grin

AWomanCalledHorse · 21/06/2012 19:36

YABU to buy olives.
YANBU to spend that much on cheese & stuffed peppers.

PavlovtheCat · 21/06/2012 19:37

oh just stuff I can't do anything about right now. Stuff I have already moaned about enough on MN. But stuff that treat food would help a LOT with Grin

I feel fed up so got 4 ripple bars for a pound

suzikettles · 21/06/2012 19:37

Ooh get some of those grilled, marinated artichoke hearts too [drool]

YANBU. We're on major belt-tightening maneuvers at the moment so I will happily live vicariously through your anti-past extravagance. The olives should be the lemon stuffed ones.

PavlovtheCat · 21/06/2012 19:37

worral you see, I did not ask if IABU to spend money in the off licence - that is so not unreasonable i did not bother asking Wink

WorraLiberty · 21/06/2012 19:39

Yeah fair point, that'd just be a ridiculous question Grin

PavlovtheCat · 21/06/2012 19:39

awoman so, get rid of the olives, by EXTRA stuffed peppers.
suzi oh are they nice? I am always a little unsure about artichokes.

YANBU
Have a dance too

suiledonn1 · 21/06/2012 19:39

YA Absolutely NBU.

I plan to buy a nice wedge of blue cheese tomorrow - my sister is coming over and I know she'll appreciate it too. I've had a tough week with both dds ill and the thought of a nice glass of wine and some tasty cheese has kept me going.

suzikettles · 21/06/2012 19:39

They are amazing.

DoesItComeInBlack · 21/06/2012 19:40

That sounds very reasonable to me! But I think it needs wine to help it go down, nip off down the offy and spend another £7.50.

worriedwretch · 21/06/2012 19:40

God I love a really fresh big salad to cheer me up when I feel crud. Genuinely. Over chocolate any day Smile my friends think I'm a loon

Lizzylou · 21/06/2012 19:40

YANBU
I could murder a carpet picnic like that right now!
With something cold from the offy to go with it, naturally.

Hope whatever is making you fed up is forgotten during your feast of antipasti

PavlovtheCat · 21/06/2012 19:41

ok, just going to put kids to bed. Come and convince me whether or not I should be extravagant. I have til 9pm to make up my mind (when my internet shop delivery slot time runs out for tomorrow AM delivery).

Internet shopping is actually not very good for me.

AThingInYourLife · 21/06/2012 19:41

No, no, no - ditch the stuffed peppers and get extra olives!

And manchego cheese.

MrsTerryPratchett · 21/06/2012 19:41

Carpet picnic is MY term, don't use it!!!

NarkedRaspberry · 21/06/2012 19:42

MMMmmmmm. Olives.

Check online for voucher codes or if they've sent you any money off tokens. Then they'd be free olives.

PavlovtheCat · 21/06/2012 19:42

It is not for eating tonight alas. Shame, as I could do with them RIGHT NOW. But, tomorrow DH is not working for a change so I might have to share.

I also have on my shopping Pinot Noir for me, as I find it goes better with blue cheese and Corona for DH. That should do...

Get some caperberries too. They are my latest addiction!

squeakytoy · 21/06/2012 19:43

garlic stuffed olives, some creamy brie, and a nice fresh stick of tiger bread... heaven

of course YANBU, but you dont need to spend 15!
