On my travels around Blogland in the last couple of weeks I have read a few posts about the contents of peoples handbags. I think it was a meme that people were getting tagged in but I have decided to jump on in and tag myself lol....This is my handbag, Mr Frugal got it for me for Christmas a few years ago from Next and I used it for a few months and then swapped it for another one that caught my eye (I'm very fickle when it comes to handbags lol). It's been living quite happily under my bed until I rediscovered it a few weeks ago.... I have about ten bags under my bed at the … [Read more...]

Proud of Myself….
We've just been to Asda to get Miss Frugal's friend a birthday present fortonight's sleepover and on the way out we saw an advert for Lurpak buttersayingPride - You won't find it in a ready mealI love it, it sums up one of the reasons I love cooking things from scratch for my family, the satisfaction I feel when we all sit down to a meal that I have made. My meals are basic at the moment but I am enjoying cooking now and I'm starting to have more confidence in the kitchen.The other reason, which is my main motivation for learning to cook is the amount of money that I save. If I plan what we … [Read more...]
