Another beautiful rainy day near Portsmouth...
Well time to organise our eating as part of the new "thrifty all singing all dancing lifestyle". the thought of ploughing through recipe books and trying to accommodate the vegetables that come weekly from Riverford along with the knowledge that fussy eaters in our home are just going to go "urghh - can I have cream spaghetti?" is faintly depressing...
Have made one resolution though and that is to make a vegetable cake once a week -Hah! a cunning plan to feed them something healthy disguised as "nice"! Last weeks Chocolate Beetroot Cake was a huge hit - recipe from Green and Blacks Book. Yesterdays Parsnip and Walnut not quite so well received as 1)No chocolate and 2)"Don`t like the bits (Walnuts). Still it is a nice cake and very moist so it will be tried again.
Then I may log onto Flylady and try and get inspired to tidy up a little. The house is not too bad but I find I can spend all day cleaning but then feel guilty that I have not spent enough time with my 4 year old. Am I the only one who also finds it difficult to take a break during the day just for me? Doubt it very much!
