A few people have reached out to me to ask how I manage to make my roast dinners for so little money. So, I am going to base prices for the recipe on today’s prices at Tesco (that is where I shop). The biggest cost with those who want to save money is when theyContinue reading “Sunday Dinner on a budget”

Week I don’t know!
Hello! Hi! It has been quite a while since I updated the blog. I have been posting on my Instagram pretty much daily but I had my third year Uni placement to complete and with Covid that ended up being more complicated that usual. However, I passed with flying colours, I have submitted all ofContinue reading “Week I don’t know!”
Week 14 update
This week was a good week. I am still crazy busy with uni work, family life & now the weather has settled a bit…gardening in the hope that I can have all my family and friends over for a BBQ in the near future. We did spend. We ordered in dinner one night 😮 IContinue reading “Week 14 update”
Week 13 update: Painting & baking
Another week, another update. Not a large one this time. In my last post I mentioned I had bought paint for the kitchen. Well, tada! Here it is. It was previously boring and white. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen because I enjoy cooking so it is nice to be in aContinue reading “Week 13 update: Painting & baking”
Week 11 short update & Gousto
This is super late! So late that week 12 is coming tomorrow 🤦♀️ However, I have just been really busy with the kids off of school for the Easter holidays and Uni deadlines approaching. Week 11 didn’t have anything super fancy going on. I bought some books using Waterstones vouchers and credit I had soContinue reading “Week 11 short update & Gousto”
Week 10 and monthly savings update!
This week just sort of disappeared! I fully intended to write a few posts during the week but, it seems that I missed the boat on that one! oops! Well I would like to say the week was super productive but it wasn’t! I visited B&M twice (for stuff I needed!), collected my order fromContinue reading “Week 10 and monthly savings update!”
Week 8 update: Saving not spending
Yes, I am a day late but yesterday was Mother’s Day in the UK and we were allowed to spend time together in the garden (2 households, 4 adults). I received some lovely gifts from my own children and then I made afternoon tea for my mum and we could have a catch up inContinue reading “Week 8 update: Saving not spending”
Week 7: Gousto, offers, more food & a confession!
Another Sunday, another post. The last week has been a good week. We’ve enjoyed bike rides, park trips, outdoor movies and as a bonus…there’s only one more week left of home learning! I cannot wait to get back in to a routine. My first botanical babe A&E plant sub box arrived. I bought this offContinue reading “Week 7: Gousto, offers, more food & a confession!”
Week 6 update and monthly savings total!
I haven’t posted much this week. I’ve been super busy with Uni work and general life (both children are still at home!). We’ve still been cooking though and spending lots of time together. The weather was good this weekend so we even managed to sort out the garden after winter killed off all the plants.Continue reading “Week 6 update and monthly savings total!”
Second Gousto box
Our second Gousto box arrived this week. We were £31 for 4 meals for the 4 of us. This was amazing value yet again! It arrived on time and was as usual perfectly packaged. This month we received a free bar of chocolate. This is 100% slavery free chocolate. It tasted ok but I amContinue reading “Second Gousto box”
