What ho 'me darlin's ...how is everyone?
Cag/Zoo I can't buy a swede for love nor money here. (They feed them to cattle.) Dh on the other hand loves them mashed with lots of butter and black pepper & salt. Many UK visitors to our home bring swedes with them through the Eurotunnel. I am not entirely sure it is legal mind you!
Gosh you sound very determined with your hoiked Marigolds Zoo and congrats on fab list already achieved! And you don't sound like major saddo in the slightest thats me ... more like the fab-est of fab friends
. And love the image of kittens having post op recovery snooze time in your maxi dress
. Exploding poo not so good though!
Rosa are you mashin' me duck?
[Thinks nostalgic thoughts of the old country
] Very impressed by you including the kids Flying challenges in to your routines. Hope the white vinegar/lemon juice/bicarb combos work on your tiles!! There was a thread on here recently about bathroom sink cleaning and someone recommended Vanish laundry powder. Haven't tried it myself though! Oh yes and finally, very good strategy to ignore all friends comments on focus on the week's Flying achievements!
Rosa/Toostressy I have already recommended Annabel Karmel's "After School Meal Planner" on this thread a while back. Also, the Mumsnet cook book (Top Bananas or something?) is not at all bad. The chapter on cooking for children in Nigella's "How to Eat" is one I return to quite a bit too. Also, funnily enough, the books I bought for dd when she started to learn to cook such as "The Dorling Kindersley Children's Quick and Easy Cook Book" and the "DK Children's Step-By-Step Cook Book" have all turned out to be a source of good, nutritious and simple meals. An added bonus if the dc help a bit with the cooking too! (Best way to get them to eat a wide range of things I reckon.) Having said all of that, I agree with the fledgling who said that there is nowt wrong with beans or scrambled eggs on toast every so often, esp if dc are having hot lunches.
Great list there also Toostressy
and hope parenting class goes well! And I certainly hope visit to coffee shop is guilt free considering all that you do on a daily basis!!
Funny how the male of the species has a totally different attitude to this. I used to work with all females and remember being completely shocked when I first worked with a group of blokes (mainly) at our office. It's not that they don't work hard because they do, it's just that the pace is slightly different and they don't think twice about taking a decent coffee or lunch break. It would never cross their mind to feel guilty about it. And forget popping to the shops at lunch time to buy that night's ingredients for tea or God forbid noticing before they left home that the dw tablets need replenishing and making a mental note to pick them up!
Cag well done for continuing to move in June! A few small changes here and there can make all the difference! And community cafe sounds fab! I hate food waste!

for Thursday's mega-list!! Amazing lot done in just two hours!!
Oh no Mermaids re: forensic tooth search!! 
Foxes oh dear, from my limited experience, I remember that having a bad night's sleep once your baby's sleep patterns have improved almost hits harder than having a broken night when you are in the thick of broken nights ifyswim. Hope you can catch up with a bit of much needed r & r this weekend. 
Cotswold hope your dd starting to feel a bit better and speaking as one who suffers mahoosively from motivations "ishews" I have found on my worst CBA days that motivation is (counter-intuitively) all backwards ie it comes after doing something, not beforehand, ifyswim, however small that "thing" may be!!
Einstein wow to "heaven on a plate" comment
. I get the impression that Mumsnet Towers are doing a lot of intensive site maintenance atm, given the way the mobile app works, then doesn't work, then works again. Also the wretched pop up ads are slowing everything down I think. Great Thurs list there too btw!
Humongous wing flaps to Honu Bluepheasant Mercury Mumontherun Whoknows and everyone else I have missed!
