Menu plan, the money has run out before the month edition!

January is always a tight month, but die to some unexpected bills and rather lax invoice payments is is harder than normal for us this month.  So we are trying to stretch what we have in the fridge, freezer and cupboards.

Monday - Toad in the hole, mash, leeks and peas

Tuesday - chicken noodle soup (made with homemade stock) and dumplings

Wednesday - Garmon, egg and chips

Thursday - Homemade pizza

Friday - Jacket potatoes with cheese and beans

Saturday - Bolognese with quorn mince from the freezer

Sunday - Roast chicken dinner


Next week will be even more of a mashup as we will be eating mainly from the freezer.  We are lucky I have a well stocked larder and we have a sack of potatoes from the father in law (who is a farmer)

    We're also doing the January freezer feed - fortunately I did a bulk cook before Christmas but it does seem like the longest month ever

Bissell Vac and Steam Machine Review and Giveaway

I have hard floors downstairs which I love.  They are much more practical than carpet with 2 mucky boys and a dog. Over the past 8 years I have tried all sorts of ways to keep them clean and I think I have finally found the product that does that for me. It is the  Bissell Vac and Steam Machine .  This amazing suel action machine vacuums and steam cleans either independently or at the same time.  It means that I have done away with my vacuum and steam cleaner downstairs (which I gave to my brother in law). What I like: You can either vacuum or steam clean or do both It is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre The handle is adjustable great for a home with people of different heights and for getting the kids involved. You need no chemicals The pads are washable and reusable It comes with a two year guarantee It warms up fast (within 30 seconds) so no long wait to start cleaning It costs under £100 It is space saving.  No need for a separate vacuum, steam cleaner or mop.
