So today my lovely losers, is 'fridge day' yes today is the day the new American fridge arrives, the all singing, all dancing, crushed ice , cubed ice or cold water delivering fridge to help me with my fluid intake. So I am very excited , the kitchen is all ready to greet her as we wait with baited breath. And we wait..........and we wait and still she doesn't arrive, past breakfast and past lunch, oh damn and I needed to go shopping, and collect a prescription and get school shoes from clarks arrrggggh ! Could have done sooo much today.

Well, whilst STILL waiting I made :

I'm off to a black tie do, where all practical franchises meet, during the day is a conference and then dinner dance! But I have left it so last minute! Found a website called wishwantwear, hol always shows stuff from there on his show, I didn't want to buy anything as hopefully this time next year I won't be a 16!!
Tonight I am now doing a chicken and butternut squash risotto! I change my mind a lot, can you tell? Haha. I'll post recipe and take a pic when served!

I really want an American fridge but we have no space :( I have got everything for our new house from eBay! I'm like an eBay queen!
Xx
 
I run a car and van rental company and everyone hires to get there eBay bargains! One couple today went to pick up there entire kitchen they brought!

So this is my risotto looks horrible but tastes amaze!
Recipe-
Cook chicken in saucepan along with onions (I usually add bacon but didn't have any :()
Then add risotto rice along with garlic cook this on med heat until rice is kind of see through, then add some white wine (I used rose today as all I had!) boil it until all evaporated.
Then slowly add chicken stock, keep adding until all is used up (I use 2 knorr stock pots made up)
while this is happening i roast a butternut squash and add that at the end ImageUploadedByMiniMins.com1366050851.350664.jpg

That is terribly written! No where near as good as pebbles! Oh I forgot the Parmesan!!! At the end add a little Parmesan and pepper :)

That looks really nice bean, I love squash and I love risotto so it gets a thumbs up from me . Well done the first to complete challenge number 1.

I am an eBay lover too. Got my range cooker on there for an absolute bargain. Also my washing machine, 3 months old, lady was emigrating suddenly after refurbishing her house.


Well eventually my fridge arrived. Wouldn't fit through front door, so they tried side alley- no!
So in the end we had to ask to use the neighbours rear gate and then remove one of my fence panels - nightmare. But she's in now and she's beautiful, just can't switch her on for 12 hrs , so the contents of my old fridge ( they took that away) are on my kitchen table ! Just as well I didn't go shopping.

Thought I'd show her off .................

It's annoying how they stipulate certain brands, I have some sainsburys ones in the freezer, I'm going to compare nutritional info on them. Hate buying when I already have stuff!

I think it's mainly the fibre amount that's important big they're similar enough I'd take it as free. It does say in the book alternative brands can b used (not sure if that's just on cereals)
 
After playing with my fridge until the small hours, I fell into bed and then didn't get much sleep , up again for work but only my half day .

Breakfast I had a milky coffee (1hea)

So I left work and went to asda , well you would wouldn't you if you had a new fridge ! I spent an hour and a half in there and too much money but I'm not shopping again for at least 7 months cos the fridge and now both freezers are full.
Lunch - a tomato pasta snack pot from chilled section in asda

Then into town after the school run to get miss flipflop ( daughter) a pair of school shoes. Even that didn't go smoothly and cost me a large proportion of my shopping value.!!

Back home and a friend of mine, who's husband has just been made redundant , text to say he's feeling a bit down so would we like to meet for a pub meal (Wetherspoons) .
Now I just know you're all gonna be soooooooo proud of captain pebster . So I cooked the other half his dinner and sent him off to work at 7pm. Then we went to the local Wetherspoons, the kids had nachos and chicken strips. I had 2 nachos as they had fresh chilli on them and no way was she eating them! They also had fried chicken strips which I steered clear of. I had a diet coke whilst watching the others eat. Then when we got back I shot in the kitchen and made king prawn Szechuan with noodles ( blue dragon sauce =3 syns)



image-3225841655.jpg

Had it with half a pack of prawn crackers (5 syns)



Just need to plan the rest of the week .
So today - 1hea, 1 heb, syns 8

Ta dubby, I hope it lasts a bit longer this time. I'm on for a good loss as its week 1 of back to plan . Day 6 and I'm still feeling good . I'm in love too which always helps with the loss , I can't leave my fridge alone it's a match made in heaven , we were destined to be together. We both have so much in common (food mainly) and it was definitely love at first sight .
