New item came in the Charity food collection last night!

Fifteen tiny pots of bacon crumbles - original price £2.50 for 30g!

Even the kids stared at them and worked out how much real bacon you could get for £37.50

No-one wanted them so they are in my freezer for quiches, pasta dishes &egg bites

It’s chucking it down here in the Urban Croft

And last night a whole heap of tiny pineapple snack packs weren’t claimed from the Charity food collection

So going to chop them up thin and dehydrate them for a few hours so that I can make pineapple tea through till spring.

With enough to share!

I don’t often save myself a bunch of flowers from the charity collection that I do five times a week.

But last week there were so many flowers that one bunch was left.

They have given me so much joy and the perfume is all through the house.

We do not live by bread alone xx

The moment you realise that feeding the kids and their mates on a Saturday night with homemade pizza ….

… is saving you about a hundred quid!!!

EEEEEPPPP!!!

So yesterday I found a wee moose in the kitchen and put out mousetraps.

This morning we found a wee dead moose on the stairs - puncture marks from a cat!

Seems like our old cat had words with the local floofy Tom to keep us pest free LOL

We just lost puss a couple of months ago … TBH me and the kids are not over that yet, but maybe one day in the future xx

112 pieces of tablet all wrapped up and ready to go off to my friends community council fundraiser.

At this time of year they cover my costs - I donate my time and they make a donation to buy selection boxes for kids at the food bank.

Makes all the hours stirring totally worthwhile

Your real wealth is in the community that you build - and remembering that community is a verb and not a noun, it’s something you actively do x

It’s a gey drench and foggy night here on the east coast …

BUT

The boxes have been collected from the supermarket, listed on the Olio app and I am just drawing breath before packing the ten requests for food that have come in over the last 15 minutes.

Do what you can my friends - meal by meal x
