Anyone else do this? Friday night plans

Ohgiveover77 · 17/09/2021 18:44

Been to the shop and got myself, just for me, a big bag of nachos, dips, chocolates and my favourite drinks (can’t drink booze at the mo) looking forward to my Friday night alone of scoffing and Gogglebox as Dp is on toddler bedtime duty tonight. The treats are hidden and preparations are in motion 🤣
Anyone else do this with food?
What are your Friday night plans? Are they as exciting as mine?!

I hid the snacks in the high cupboard that the kids can't reach Blush I'm currently at soft play and my sofa and secret snacks are calling me!

Rosiiiiie · 17/09/2021 18:49

I hid my snacks (chocolate fingers and cookies) behind the flour and sugar. Sent DH for a walk with the 5yr old and dog. Put on some Netflix and got my snacks out!

We’re having takeaway from the pub tonight and catching up on MAFS! The child is already down 🤗

MrsXx4 · 17/09/2021 19:05

Yep same! DH out for the night I have opened the bottle of white, got a take away ordered and toddler in bed! I bought M&S cream cakes earlier and I’m going to eat both of them while catching up on MAFS! Bliss!

Enjoy all!!

I wish DH would go out for the night so I could scoff chocolate and a bottle of wine in front of the X files. But no.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 17/09/2021 19:07

DS at cubs, DH out, and IN THEORY I have a takeaway on the way. But it's a new place and they seem to have a reputation for being late. Hoping it gets here before I have to pick him up at 8pm

StripeyDeckchair · 17/09/2021 19:08

Curries from Cook.
Their garlic chicken curry is amazing.
Saag paneer is good too.
We always get too much & have the leftovers for lunch the next day.
It'll be ready in about 20 mins.

abbs1 · 17/09/2021 19:09

My husband popped to the shops to get in some treats. Im just putting DS to bed while he tidies up kitchen etc and then we can chill all evening. 😊

thesearesexpeople · 17/09/2021 19:10

DP is out for the evening, I'm currently sat with my two eldest DC who are having a movie night. Once they go to bed I have a single bottle of Crabbies and a bar of chocolate. I'm going to dye my hair and watch TV in bed and I can't bloody wait.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 17/09/2021 19:12

It came!

ididitsocanyou · 17/09/2021 19:17

Enjoy everyone! I can’t drink or scoff now as it makes me ill but Friday night always used to be treat night. I do have a junky tea though so it’s hotdogs and chips with baked beans and no greens in sight! Woop!

Needsleep32 · 17/09/2021 19:31

Same. Except with wine or beer.

Noodella18 · 17/09/2021 19:34

Partner is out at the football and I'm contemplating what takeaway to get... Chinese or fish and chips... help me decide?

Shallwegoforawalk · 17/09/2021 19:37

Just had a fab Chinese and now horizontal on the sofa cuddling the dog.

LuckyCharm9 · 17/09/2021 19:40

Yep! Went to M&S after work and picked up some snacks. Just waiting for sons karate lesson to finish and it’s home, bed for him and series 1 of the crown and snacks!

DGFB · 17/09/2021 19:48

I love Fridays! M&S curry in the oven, one child in bed, one to go. DH out.

earthyfire · 17/09/2021 19:52

Yes, my husband still isn't home from work so the snacks keep me company 😂

Booboosweet · 17/09/2021 19:55

My plan is to drink gin and tonic.

Bengal12 · 17/09/2021 20:02

Kids with my ex today so I had 3 coffees, 2 ice cream, a bag of chips, a handful of grapes and a burger through the day. And a mojito for dinner (home grown mint!) 😂.

soundsystem · 17/09/2021 20:06

Yep! DH is working late, kids are (just!) in bed and I've got a takeaway on the way and am about to open some wine Grin

ToffeeNotCoffee · 17/09/2021 20:19

@Noodella18

Fish and chips. Outstandingly yummy.

EatYourVegetables · 17/09/2021 20:24

A bottle of wine and a film on Rakuten. Open to suggestions as I’ve not properly seen any movie trailers in, urm, 5-6 years? I used to go to the cinema regularly!!

animaginativeusername · 17/09/2021 20:29

I do this on the night when not working next day. I keep my snacks in locker at work, or in sink cupboard which no one else will access.

CurryLover55 · 17/09/2021 20:37

Not very exciting but nice. Just had yummy homemade shepherds pie with cheesy mash & now watching Corrie part 2. It’s dark & rainy outside. I was struggling to get my wellies on & DH offered to put the bunnies to bed, bless him.

HocusPocuss · 17/09/2021 20:37

Currently scoffing Pringles and Cadbury’s fruit nut, whilst simultaneously gulping wine. Watching White Chicks! Good times.

elbea · 17/09/2021 20:52

We do this every Friday that Gogglebox is on, Pizza and Aldi Pretzel Chocolate. My husband would never admit it to anyone but he loves it.
