Secondly, I am absolutely cock-a-hoop because I have been paid £30 by Moneysupermarket for my 30 Ways To Save £1 post. I read the small print on their site yesterday, and it said they were going to pay for the first 500 posts. As I had left it several days, I was not hopeful. However, I got the email this morning and the money os in my paypal account as I type. The £30 is going towards a mortgage overpayment this month. Indeed, that is the subject for another post and I intend to add a sidebar counter to encourage me.
Thirdly, I am going to answer a question put to me by gotthisfar.
We bloggers are a funny bunch; this morning at 7:00 AM I found myself photographing my food for the day!
Packed lunches:
We have a microwave and toaster at school, as I imagine many places do. Thus I usually take something that I can heat up. It is quite rare that I take sandwiches. Aldi do a fine selection of chunky soups, and I go through phases of having them. Another favorite is mackeral on toast.
Today I had jacket potato, with salad and lentil and carrot curry topping.
For my break at 11:00 AM I usually take some tomato juice. I really enjoy this because it is very refreshing and fills me up.

I also have some apple, which I core and segment. That way it feels a bit posher, like the over-priced fruit bags you can buy!
Indeed I am quite a grazer, so I also take a small tub if mixed fruit, which I have posted about before.
So, there we have it. Quite frugal and healthy me thinks.

So pleased you got paid the money!
ReplyDeleteYou are so organised for lunches at school. I need to follow your lead.

I second that Sft! Thank you so much for taking the time to show me - I had never thought of tomato juice and i am so going to try it! Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI take lunches as well. Depends what I have in as to what I take. Often I take leftovers and reheat these. This week I have been using up some houmous in sandwiches. I take fruit for snack, usually a banana as noted by the yr ones I teach on Thursdays. It always amazes me the things they take in lol
ReplyDeleteBless them!
DeleteHey Frugalista Llizy - I returned the favour and showed what I had for lunch yesterday

Unfortunately there won't be any packed lunch for me today as I'm feeling poorly and am not going into work :(
