Meal Plan Friday 1st May 20202

So May has arrived, it has been chucking it down for the last few days which is great for the garden but no so for us. We have missed being outside for longer periods of time.

 I have got my mojo back a little with meal planning, we have slightly increased our food budget. Last weeks new ideas worked well and the meatball subs were amazing.

 Here is what we had Meal plan Friday 24th April 2020

 Friday - Smoked Mackerel Salad for us and the boys fish fingers, mash and peas

 Saturday - It is our eldest 10th Birthday so to treat him we are ordering dominoes and I can not wait. Full of treats and fun.

 Sunday - Normandy Chicken another new meal which sounded great. The boys will have a mini roast. We will be using chicke breast rather leg.

 Monday - Cheeseburger Tacos a new one but worth a try.

 Tuesday - Breaded Fish, new potatoes and greens an easy shove in the oven meal. The boys will have tortellini

 Wednesday - Quorn Sausage bake sounded easy and all should like this

    Chicken Normandy does sound lovely, as do the tacos. I've put loads of new dishes on my menu plan this week too - I think we're all feeling the need to try new things !

    It has been rubbish not being able to get outside because of the rain. I've really missed sitting in the garden.
    Great meal plan. Happy birthday to your eldest! We've not had a Domino's since we moved house, they don't deliver ever. Hmmf. I do love the sound of the Normandy Chicken and the Cheeseburger Tacos. x

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...
