I had a busy week last week, too busy which meant that I was unexpectedly really poorly this weekend. This week will be much quieter and I am determined to manage things better and not take as much on so I avoid the run down feeling and tiredness that has plaqued me for weeks. Easier said than done but I will try my best.
Lunches for the kids will be school dinners to give me a rest and a break, my daughters will probably moan but they appreciated packed lunches more if they have school dinners once in a while. Grown-ups lunches will be Root Vegetable Soup and Tomato Soup from the freezer defrosted as and when we need it.
Breakfasts will be porridge with homemade fruit compote. I will bake some treats for after school snacks and morning teas.
