Ooooh how did you do your beef stew? I might make a nice slow cooker meal on Saturday to have with a glass of red on Sat night while watching the voice... omg I can't wait already!!
Where did you get the peanut butter? I adoreeee it! Had a sneaky sliver on toast last week and it was so hard to stop! x

Almond milk is a new favourite! My porridge tasted amazing this morning!!!
Your beef stew sounds nice, I think I'm going to get my slow cooker out this weekend.
It's at the new house and we'll be busy painting and unpacking stuff all day so will attempt a beed casserole, I like beef and apricots that my mum used to do, might try and find the recipe for that.

We got extra lean beef already chopped, 3 parnsips, 4 carrots, 2 onions, 1 can of chickpeas, 2 beef oxos for stock, and half a turnip! Literally dumped it in slow cooker, seasoned it and leaving it bubbling on slow all day. Will serve with some henderson's relish, nom nom nom. Not supposed to have potato much on the nutrition plan or I would have out potatoes in too!
We got the pb from Holland & Barrats - really cheap too! It is high in fat obviously but only the good fats and nothing naughty in it at all
Maybe not so sw but still worth trying honeyxxxx

I got the unsweetened as it was less calories so went off that lol
We got the keys last weekend, I've been living in a flat on my own for a year and since everything is good with me and the boyfriend we decided its a good time to rent somewhere together. We're moving officially in on the 15th, just need to get walls painted and pictures up etc and all the small things moved first and then its just the bed and wardrobes to move on the day
I love all these boards for inspiration.
We tried the slimming world peri peri potatoes at taster night on tuesday and they were delicious! I would recommend them to anyone, they reminded me of salt and pepper chips.

Food sound gorgeous.
I'm a fan of the almond milk too - you get virtually the whole carton of the unsweetened stuff as a HExA I think, which is great if you like to split HExAs. The hazelnut is lovely for porridge or bran-based cereals but you don't get so much of it as it's quite sweet. It's so long since I had it that I can't remember the quantity. As the nut milks are expensive, I only buy them when they're on offer: Asda has the Alpro u/s Almond milk for £1 at the moment (in the chiller cabinet), but the use by date is well into March, so I've stocked up.
Has Lucy arrived yet? We're all bursting to know!

Just received a text! 7lbs 1oz! How tiny :') Considering I've pretty much lost that in a month puts it into perspective.
I WANT TO SEE A PHOTO! Awaiting impatiently!
