August is the fastest month of the year, well for me it is. It always seems to whiz over. Of course it's the summer holidays and Stu and Ellie have their birthdays but if it could just slow down a little that would be great! It doesn't seem that long until Ellie will be back at college. Thankfully we are just about all ready for that, I did the last of admin for that and ordered her bus pass. We don't have any uniform to order or buy as she has the boots and overalls from last year. She could have had new but it's taken her a year to wear the boots in so they are comfy and the overalls were and are still too big on her. As much as the college is about equal opportunities for all sexes the overalls are still made for young men and not so much for young ladies.
Last weeks meal plan went to plan! We ate everything on the day that I had planned. We have found some new favourites from Gousto. The herby pork and egg burger was so simple to make and delicious and the BBQ butter chicken was amazing! Who'd have thought mixing butter and BBQ sauce and putting it on chicken breasts would make them taste so good. We actually had two meals out for Stu's birthday on Friday. Breakfast and our evening meal. We certainly ate well and by 8pm it felt like were in a food coma. It was worth it though although he didn't actually get his birthday cake until the Saturday.
I have no real plans for this week but I am sure I will find something to do with myself. Becky's girlfriend has been away for the last couple of weeks on holiday so Becky is looking forward to seeing her again. I think later on in the week the girls and I are going to do a bit of birthday shopping. Ellie has enough but Becky needs to pick out some trainers that she wants and a few other things.
On the menu this week we have:
Monday - Gousto meal - Sticky Honey Mustard Posh Dogs With Chips! Our favourite!.
Tuesday - Gousto meal - Pepperoni Pizza Mac 'N' Cheese.
Wednesday - Gousto meal - Sausage & Roasted Veg Tray Bake.
Thursday - Gousto meal - Hoisin Pork Burger With Black Sesame Chips.
Friday - Pizza
Saturday - Prawn cocktail salad with some nice brown bread.
Sunday - A Sunday lunch of some sort.

ReplyDeleteYou really like your Gousto meals don't you. I think I might start trying them again. We are such fussy eaters here.
