well done on the 2.5lbs loss Lou! you're doing great!

 

[kirstabubble]

Hi Louise, do you have the recipe for the mushroom soup. I love love love mushroom soup! xx

 

[Louise24]

Hi Kirsta.... yep, I invented it myself but here goes...

* 1 diced onion
* 3 rachers of lean bacon
* Approx 10 flat mushrooms or a about 5 with a mix of other mushrooms
* Chicken oxo

Right... cook the bacon in a pan slowly so all the flavour comes out, don't worry if the bottom of the pan goes brown, the onions will pick up the flavour...add the mushrooms to the bacon and leave to cook for a few mins.... add the chopped mushrooms and crumble an oxo cube over the mixture... stir round and leave to cook together for a minute... add in some boiling water to cover the mushroom and simmer for 15 to 20 mins, leave to cool and blitz.

This doesn't look very appealing but tastes lovely, hope you get on ok with it x

Hi diary.. well Rhod Gilbert was brilliant, I haven't laughed so hard much in ages, he was on stage from half 8 to half 10, fair play to him!

So today - Sunday... Wanted to go and watch the rememberance parade but I've missed it, the parade starts at 0945 as they go to church first.. think I'll stay and watch it on the tv with a mug of coffee.

Re: Lou's Diary

They were AMAZING!

 

[prawnchopSuey]

Glad you enjoyed Rhod Gilbert! I thought he would be good, but his shows sold out fast so I didn't get to see this tour. Maybe next year!

P.S. The gym's that way (*points in direction of gym*)
I'm hoping that I will stay motivated to go for a while at least. I'm quite tight, so I like the challenge of going often enough that it makes it cheaper than paying per visit!
