Meal Plan Friday 19th October 2018

What a wonderful week of weather we had in East Sussex last week, it is half term so we are hoping it can stay for a little longer.

 I have had a major fridge clear out and was shocked by the sheer number of half used jars. After giving myself a lecture about waste, it made me realise how I must keep my fridge in a better state of organisation and cut this waste out.

 As I mentioned it is half term and Mr MC&W is off work, so the meals we having I am not planning as there will be a few out to give us all a break from the normal routine.

 Friday - Treat Charlie Bighams Risotto. Boys are having sausages, chips  and peas.

 Saturday - Veggie lasagna for us and the boys its Quorn Burgers and salad

 Sunday - Jackets, beans, cheese and eggs

 Monday - Pizza and salad for the boys. We will have a Gastro Fish with new potatoes and green veg mix

 Tuesday - Treat out or take away.

 Wednesday - Treat out or take away.

 Thursday - Treat out or take away.

    I like this idea of keeping yourself accountable by putting your meal plans online. Have a great week #Blogstravanganza

    An easy week! Mine is relatively easy this week too, although convenience rather than eating out.

    Half empty jars cover the entire top shelf of my fridge! I really need to do a clear out too. I'll have to think up some ways to use up the stuff that is still edible...

Pleached Trees - Higher Privacy Solution

As you are aware we have had the new fence put in and are trying to find some ways to gain some privacy back, the new garden fence . Today I took the boys on a trip to one of my favourite places to look at trees and plants. English Woodlands located at Cross in Hand, East Sussex. We brought our laurel plants from them about 4 years ago, they were extremely good plants healthy, strong and have since flourished. As a nursery, they helped us choose what we needed and even told us to buy smaller ones as they would grow so fast, saving us money. I have been looking online and wondered if pleached trees maybe an answer to our height issue. What they should do is bring height to the fence but still allow light in. Now these are by no means a cheap and as always I am not sure if Mr MC&W is going to like them. So what is a pleached tree you ask?, to be honest, I only found out when frantically on google looking for  solutions for the new fence. A pleached tree is where som...

Planting LolliPop Trees Elaeagnus ebbingei

I can not believe the day had finally arrived, the trees we had put so much thought into were going to be planted. We had the conifer and last shrubs removed and the whole area dug over and ready for the arrival of the LolliPop Trees Elaeagnus ebbingei. Finding Elaeagnus Ebbingei Area cleared and ready for the trees I was on the school run when they arrived. I walked round into the back garden to see five of the most beautiful trees in huge pots ready to be planted. Mr MC&W had chatted to the team that the trees need to be the same height despite there being a slight slope. Elaeagnus ebbingei all ready to be planted It was great to see the tape measure out checking the spacing between each one, as this was such a crucial part of the design. I can not believe how fast they got the first tree in and how polite they were when we suddenly realised it was overhanging the neighbours' boundary. They brought it forward no questions. First Elaeag...

Dinner for Two - private Chef

Friday was Mr MC&W 40th Birthday and this brought a slight dilemma. How could I make this night special without going to a restaurant for dinner? Our eldest has type 1 and ASD which means it's nearly impossible for anyone to have him even for an hour or so. I had an idea and for once it was one of my better ones. What about getting a private chef to cook for us in our own home. We could have an amazing meal that we do not have to cook ourselves and look after OB at the same time. Win win all round. Luckily the MIL knew someone who was starting out doing private catering, he has even appeared on MasterChef setting the contestants a challenge. We talked a lot on email about Mr MC&W favourite food, using this information he came up with a special menu for us both. It was perfect we could have a meal that was full of food Mr MC&W loves and there are worries about OB getting sick. Below is our amazing meal. (sorry that the photos are not the best quality, we were rea...
