star - does your dh not realise that that would be totally abnormal? Surely as husband and wife you should be able to be honest with each other? You shouldn't need an excuse not to have sex. The fact that you don't want it should be enough.
Yikes at the cost of gymnastics. Was going to look for ballet or gym class for dd to start soon, but you're putting me off!
MM - my Boden deliveries for dd have always come in boxes! I need to organise/photograph etc some of her old stuff to sell on ebay, as mini-boden usually sells well on there. Perhaps I should offer you first dibs!
Hope that you had a good day shopping Aubergenie, and that you managed to fit a nap in too.
I bet that Poppy would love banana mushed up with coconut cream hmm . And you can use it to make rice pudding too. Must make one like that myself actually.
I'm struggling more with thinking of meat free recipes than I am with making them dairy or soya free! What would you have eaten previously? Stir fries? Bean based casseroles? Veggie chilli/curry (but you're avoiding onion/spices too?). Can you have quorn - that's not soya based is it, but does it contain any? Cheese free pizza (I make my own bases too). Baked potatoes. Sandwiches (make own bread if can't find soya free). Oat milk works well in pancakes, so you could make them with savoury fillings.
We have aircon installed in all of the bedrooms in our house, and I love it. I just cannot sleep in a stuffy room at all. The portable ones are a pain though, as you usually have to have a window open to shove a hose out of, which sort of defeats the point!
Had friends that we don't see very often round for BBQ today. They have 2 girls who are about 9 and 7 or 8 I think, and dd plays really nicely with them. Ds was in a good mood too, despite only having 2 30min naps today!
