Nipped into Formby this morning for a bit of fresh air and to pay some money in the bank for Jane. She said she wanted to buy a new watch in New York so I have sent her some money for that. It was really quiet, everyone spent up after Christmas and New Year I suppose. There were parking places everywhere in Waitrose. What a difference a few days makes.
Went into the animal charity shop to take some books, and spotted a copper/brass coal scuttle that we have had our eye on for a few weeks. It had been priced at £15 which we thought was a bit dear but it had been reduced to £12 so we bought it. VT polished it up this afternoon and it has come up a treat and looks really good lovely and shiny, and worth more than £12. I like a bargain!
Went into Waitrose and had a lovely cup of coffee and bought a very few items. Got some "Old Shetland Black" potatoes which have a bolack skin so we will have them for tea. Also a box of Duchy Originals crackers for half price and some wrapping paper for next year.
Tonight we are having:
Quorn Wild Mushroom Croutes,
Tenderstem Broccoli,
Baked Old Shetland Potatoes.
AND a PUDDING!!!
Last night I opened a jar of brandied peaches and had half of them with some M&S brandied cream. Gorgeous and a REAL treat.
Big weigh in today being Wednesday, and I think we have both put on a few pounds, but back on the healthy eating plan on Monday..
Hey Ho the pounds will go!!
