Shiney Merrily On High, This Christmas Food Is Healthy

[BitOfFun]

No more eating lots of pie, we're staying fit and wealthy...etc etc

Welcome to this seasonal healthy eating thread- all welcome, and the only fat birds will be the turkeys

Join the festive chat, and we'll keep each other on the straight and narrow!

Mitts - will have a look for you, but my initials are CK and I have a pic of flamingoes.

DSM - when i was working, i had just moved into a new town, and knew no-one! It was really hard when junior (who was 4 at the time) was off school - but in the end, we figured it out. I made some friends, and we would swap childcare about if and when we needed it. But, although junior had her problems, i dont think it is on the same scale as your DS, so not too sure what i would do tbh

I do know that a good supportive school is worth its weight in gold though! Will mull it over for you.......

And boy it is snowing here! Junior just been out for a snowball fight with a couple of young kids from down the street, and mini has gone off to sleep muttering something about needing 5 carrots for 5 snowmen

Mitts - I see you found me and added me Have accepted friend request.

Mitts, part of my name is Holy Cheely bastard trying to grab your bag

Have spent all day trying to get the house organised. Telly is rubbish so might watch Valkyrie (sp?) that we got on LoveFilm.

Not had dinner yet, might have veggie meatballs, potatoes and gravy or veggie korma.

Glad you liked the candle Jet

Am gonna brave the shops again tomorrow

ok

...

any one know an easier way to clear up ulbus oil then nail varnish remover?

Squeezy - was at the hairdressers today and comment was passed on what a lovely necklace I had on......

Ooooh hello Shiney. Have you finished school now for two weeks?

Bella - thanks for not having a bust up with me on the children's parties thread - even though I do think you are very PFB

Hiya hunlet

No household tips from me, DEM. I peaked with the jizz-swallowing, I think.

glad to see all the healthy eating going on - I've contributed with a curry and chocolate pud. I really really am going to be good in the new year but it's all too tempting now.

Braved waitrose today (as I didn't book my ocado in time!) - it was mental. So busy. But polite busy - everyone was careful not to ram another person with a trolley!

DSM - a quandry indeed. Though I assume good schools like that are very very hard to come by?

Looking forward to some laziness now. But missing x-factor!

Bella - that sounded like such a lovely morning. Bet 'you are looking glam and sparkly now.

Flamingo - I am sooooo not PFB, believe me . It's just not something I would do, if others do it, it is up to them, but I couldn't.

BofF - aren't you supposed to be at Reality's party?

Bella!

Snow, bella, snow. I couldn't cope with the drive in the dark arctic wastes, so had to cancel when I realized what the weather was doing

'Twas only joking, Bella! In fact, when one of the shiney crew post a differing opinion to me, it does make me think twice about my own opinion - that's how much I like you all!

Hells, it was lovely. My hairdresser is just bloody fab. She has a bit of a menagerie at home and has donkey's and chickens. One of her donkey's played a part in a nativity last Sunday and as the procession were crossing a really busy main road in the afternoon, the donkey stopped dead in the middle and woudn't move. No amount of arse slapping would shift it. She was soooo embarrassed. They had to physically carry it over.

Who can carry a donkey?

• Flamingo. Phew.

Oh BofF - I am bloody thick. Was your hunlet post in response to me saying you were at Realities or have I got the wrong end of the stick completely....

No, you didn't mention Reality's until after I saw Hunlet, I think?

I am not Hunlet, honest guv.

I had a hairdresser come to the house and cut dd1@s hair yesterday, btw. It was cheap as chips, and she looks bloody gorgeous. I wish she would let me post pictures of her, but I guess that at 13 I have to respect her privacy
