New to simply filling- any help appreciated

I had never actually tried marmite until really recently and I am undecided about it! I don't love it or hate it!! Don't really like it on toast or anything like that but gave the soup a little extra flavour.

Just made kale crisps mmm so good, only tried them once before and burnt them a bit but these were perfect :-D

Quite a random food day nice to have a bit of variety had never tried the cakes or soup before. Plenty kale left for more crisps tomorrow and totally having a cheese toasty with my soup tomorrow and dipping it in x

 

[bulldogdaisy]

Love your food for today! Still need to mix mine up more! Glad you've had a good day though :0)

I've never tried marmite but web I was in Sydney I tried Vegemite (which I think is the same as marmite but Australian version????)
I just tried it in a spoon. It was disgusting! So never tried it over here!

It was just very salty

What's marmite made from?

I tried it years ago,alas I didn't like it!

Marmite is definately a weird taste - it's a yeast extract with added vitamins and stuff. Definately an acquired taste and i'm not a big fan, don't hate it just unsure of it. Tastes a bit like twiglets I think lol not sure what flavour twiglets are supposed to be but don't like them much either!!

Off to see Jaws tonight as it's been released at the cinemas so looking forward to that better take some low points snacks along to resist the popcorn! x

I didn't know that about Jaws! Classic film,enjoy it :0) I think twiglets has marmite in them hence I don't like them either lol

That was meant to say re-released but clearly my iPhone just changed it yet again argh.

Yeh total classic plus I have unlimited cinema card so it's nice to have a "free" night out cinema card is one of the very few unnecessary spends that I have its nice to just pay it each month and know I can go whenever I fancy - I got a cheap £10 a month phone contract instead of my old expensive one so that allows me to have mobile and cinema for same price as just mobile used to be ;-) that's my justification anyway!

Ugh still having issues trying to get my benefits it's driving me crazy!! They lost my forms then tried to do it on the phone but part of the security questions involved knowing my address - simple it would seem but NO the address they had on file for me is from about 8 years ago I have lived in several different houses since then and because I couldn't remember the number and postcode I failed the security check do couldn't do it on the phone and now have to wait on them sending more forms out and do it all again ARGH! X

 

[bulldogdaisy]

Argh about the forms!! Hate that these things take forever yet I'm sure if you owed them anything that they would soon be chasing you up! that's really good about the cinema card,I used to go to the cinema loads,do miss it as its a good night out! Knew what you meant about Jaws,I've seen it loads but never get bored of it.Have a great night :0)

 

[Atomic pink]

That's really frustrating about the forms! Grrrr. And typical of most benefit agencies unfortunately. If you can take a copy of anything you send or hand in because they do have a worrying tendency to lose things. They will backdate it to when you stopped receiving sick pay but I know its not much fun waiting for

Hope you enjoy Jaws. I didn't know it had been re-leased either, which I am rather ashamed of as I am mildly obsessed with sharks and comedy shark films. Have you ever seen the Sharkopus or Swamp Shark? Or Mega Shark vs Crocasaurous? They are all SYFY channel gold!

Jaws was awesome loved seeing it on the big screen! :-D had the planned snacks at cinema can't be bothered finding out the pp value just now will look them up tomorrow!

[icklerockchick]

Oh my just did 6 week 6 pack level1 and totally knackered what a workout. I don't like getting bored of exercise so at the moment I'm just mixing it up trying bits of different jillian michaels workout DVDs and some skimble workouts too. I know I would probably get better results sticking to one program and notice my fitness improving more that way as the workout gets easier over time but I get bored too easily I like variety and it's all burning calories/improving fitness so it's all doing some sort of good! X

 

[Purpled]

I did 6 week 6 pack for about 2 weeks! Stomach was rock hard

It's good I switch up the exercise, that was muscles can relax and you workout more muscle groups!

I think it's a good idea,like Purp says you work other muscles then,I've yet to try the six pack,want to finsh level 3 of shred so it's done then lol though I do like your idea as I tend to get bored doing the same workouts!
