Meal Plan Friday Friday 19th June 2020

I am hoping the weather forecast is correct and we will have some more summery weather for the week ahead. We are pottering along at the moment, homeschool is not going well but we are trying our best.

Last weeks meal plan went really well, for the first time ever I got the vegetarian ragu spot on and the chicken sliders were just brilliant definitely having both of those meals again.

Meal plan friday 12th June 2020

Friday - Pinch of Nom Cheeseburger Pizza for us the boys will have a make your own odd selection they go for. 

Saturday - Butter Chicken Curry, this is from a jar but never had it before.

Sunday - Father's Day he wanted Steak and Chips followed by cheese and the boys asked for Quorn nuggets and chips.

Monday - Chicken (Quorn) mozzarella parcels with pesto, I use puff pastry and make it an open tart then the boys will have tuna slices.


Tuesday - Coated fish (thanks Birds eye) with new potatoes and green veggies

Wednesday - Tortellini Pasta bake using up the pesto from Monday

    Ooh the pesto and mozzarella parcels sound really good. Butter chicken curry is one of my favourites.

    The weather forecast looks lovely for this week especially Wednesday. It seems like we're going to have a mini heatwave.
    I think if you are trying with home schooling you are doing enough. Hang on in there.
    Great meal plan. 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...

Meal Plan Saturday 18th June 2016

The weeks are just flying by at the moment. Last weeks meal plan went ok, the cheesy broccoli, ham and pasta bake was great even though I changed the meal massively from that on BBC Good Food. I adored the Pea Pakoras the boys not so much,  we will give them another go. The toad in the hole was for Mr and Mrs MC&W tasty and for once I cooked it well, boys loved the Yorkshire puddings but sausages are still not going down to well. This week is very busy so we are having a few quick and easy or throw it in the oven and leave to cook meals. We also have baby ZAP beginning to wean so putting his first few tastes on the meal plan as well. Busy times ahead. I am using as I did with both the boys Annabel Karmels ideas to start with and then doing a combination of baby lead weaning. This dual way worked well with both OEP and ATM. This week it's all about a few first tastes as he has had a few days on baby rice now and it's time to move on a little. I will also be starting to...

Feeding a Bee with sugar water

Have you ever been in the garden and seen a sad looking bee on the ground not really moving? You watch it for a while realising the poor little chap is really struggling. I have found several bees like this and tried to feed them sugar water. But my attempts to rescue them mainly ended with me trying to drown them, I was really not aiding them during their time of need. But I have finally developed a method that works so I thought I would share. Mix together white sugar with a little water so that it completely dissolves, RSPB suggests 2 tablespoons of sugar with one tablespoon of water. I used desert spoons but the same ratio. The advice is never to use honey or brown sugar.  This is what worked for me, move the bee to a paving stone, I used a strong leaf they tend to walk onto it, if not you can easily slide it under them, then drip a small amount of the sugar water in front of the bee. The bee will start to drink the sugar water and you will see it begin to get stronger. It...
