Hi everyone Had a nice day shopping with Mum, even though we ended up having a 'discussion' about brother's iminent wedding. Was v.funny with hindsight and very British - whispered, clipped tones in the hat department of John Lewis I bought a hat in the end, and some new make-up, and also a new handbag lurvely which is not for the wedding but I really wanted one I can wear across me rather than carry or just put over my shoulder.
Wasting - at the pooey cat
JKS - that looks fab! Made me smile looking at that picture of your boys on the seat, my DS is a gorgeous little blondie too - he would have fitted right in for that photo!
Freaky - it's probably not a bad conclusion to come too re. the putting on weight. It's to do with how your body processes excess calories - excess from carbs can be stored as fat, but it's actually much harder for your body to store excess calories from fat/protein.
Some of our favourite meals at the moment are - sausages with roasted butternut and green veg - roast chicken with cauliflower cheese - meatballs in tom. sauce on top of leeks rather than pasta. We had chilli the other day with only a little bit of rice and loads of brocolli and it was really nice, I had been dubious!
Fernie - welcome and well done for making a start Sounds like you have got an awful lot on your plate
I would def. start with the hospital bag too, then laundry and then the kitchen. As a minimum each day I try and do a load of washing and keep the kitchen clean, everything else is a bonus.
