Morning everyone

Madam took me to the bedroom to show me the sun lol..

But I secretly think she was showing me the weeds behind the spiky succulent things in the garden. So When I hang the washing out Ill get in and remove them. They are really easy to move, avoiding the spikes is the main part.

Running late but who cares lol...

Then I will do my dishes that I didn't do yesterday lol..

Meant to tell you Dianne and I were looking at the full legs of lamb on Thursday. $90 thank you very much.. Thats rediculous. How does a big family get on it might only do one meal and maybe the odd sandwich. There was 7 in our house and I know there wasn't much left when we had one. They had four quarter roasts too $50ish. There's more bone and less meat in those. We used to get those for $5 when we were in Taranaki.

I dont know how people feed a family these days.. Maybe that's why Maccas works out cheaper.

Im cancelling my colonoscopy etc until Ive spoken to my Dr and even then it wont happen until after Ive had my tummy surgery cos I cannot imagine they will want to do surgery on what could be massively bruised tummy. I am pretty good at doing my own shots, but there's also the chance it bruises massively.. And unless there is a bloody good reason for it, it wont happen.. Bridging etc can be scary and I dont wish to do that anymore than needed.

Have a fab day all

Popeye - our local paknslave has a short dated meat bin in one of the chillers, and there are sometimes bargains to be had there. Yesterday there was a leg of lamb for $24, best before today.

You have to be quick, and its a 15 minute trip to my "Local" so I only go once a week. then not every week. 

I am lucky that I buy marked down fish in our local new World tho. But I need to use some up before I buy more.

I wish our Pak n Save (Hamilton) had that, Praktica. They don't even have the seconds vegie trolley anymore. I used to buy the bruised fruit for the waxeyes. Now they share the 'good stuff' with us

[Lilith7]

I'm fairly rubbish with flowers apart from spring flowers, violets thst grow like weeds & one rose.

Bought myself another pair of harem pants for summer, hoping that the gorgeous sea green really is that colour & not a horrible shade of green; they turned up & yep, they are indeed so quite pleased, shoiuld have enough to cope with warmer weather now.

Did a bit more weeding & gave that damned ivy anothet trim back.

Seriously Popeye - $90 for a leg of lamb! Unbelievable,in this country. But glad I no longer eat red meat.

Afternoon (just) everyone
The birthday sleepover was a loved by all. Picked up a very tired girl at 12 and shes been chilling ever since.
I've spent the arvo weeding and pottering in the garden and dog walking. Feels so good to be back out there and after the garden being ignored for months it's looking good
Will hopefully get back out tomorrow to continue
Omg Popeye that's so expensive and I agree, count imagine feeding a big family, the three of us is bad enough
Yummm to your loaf kiwi. I love lemon anything and we are lucky to have a great lemon tree like you
Steak for dinner here tonight. Got a great special at the mad butcher. Not sure what's going to be with it yet, but thinking maybe fried potatoes and salad
Thanks for the birthday ideas, im just really torn as I wanted it to be something special but I think a garden voucher might be the way to go, along with some of her fav choccies

[Oh_hunnihunni]

Pizza in this house. Left over chook and roast veg with other stuff on home made flat breads. I had a craving for pizza so made my own. Long time since I made flatbreads, so they might be a bit chewy, but I will not complain to the cook...

Rid you know our Minister of Finance has a degree in English Lit, but nothing in finance or economics? Weird...

[popeye333]

Well that sort of sums her up doesn't it. That is weird.

I changed my batter recipe and had a small piece of gurnard and a battered sausage. I added baking powder and some cornflour. And it was good. hung on better too.

Sorry, not. MrP Ill do it this way from now on.

I put my music on this morning and had the dishes done smartly.. Washing is in, lovely and dry smelling good.

I finished the rose and have started on the background of the daffodils.

Our Pak n save still has the seconds fruit stand. And a trolley of damaged stock. But you have to be early to get the marked down meat.
New World does marked down meat just about any time. Baking bananas often and they sometimes have a marked down trolley. But the chilled stuff milk etc seems to have stopped in the last few weeks.

I certainly wouldn't want to be feeding a large family. Its bad enough feeding me and a Madam Cat , who seems to be off meat at the mo. But she is eating bikkies and has plenty of water. So I just put a good teaspoonful of meat in the dish for her incase she wants it.

Right I hope to run into the brothers online then Ill play scrabble. I might put dirty dancing on later since there isnt anything Im interested in on TV tonight
