Washday!

Today is our wash the bed linen day. We do ours every two weeks ubnless it is extra warm of course. Seems next door do the same since we both have a line of washing blowing about in the breeze. it is a lovely day today actually, much nicer than the weather we had in the summer!
VT had his head in the tins and packets cupboard this morning, looking for the tin of Mamade ready to make some marmalade . but he came across quite a number of tins and jars that were about a year or more out of date. It is amazing how quickly you lose track of things. I think the trouble is that there are so many things in the cupboard that some get pushed to the back and thus forgotten. Mind you we don't throw much away really. I just wonder how long past the sell by date you can use things up. We have decided to use up for the next 4 weeks till we go away, the freezer is jam packed full of things that need using, so that is the aim. And, to stay within the calorie count too of course.
We got weighed this morning...I know that you are supposed to only weigh yourself each week, but I like to do the weighing most mornings, and we were both down about a pound. I think we are down about 18lbs now, which is excellent isn't it!!
Tonight we are having:
Chinese Spring Rolls, vegetable of course,
Stir-fried vegetables,
Sweet and Sour sauce from a jar from the cupboard. On its sell-by.
4oz egg fried rice, using the fry light products.
