I don't usually like blue cars, but that shade with that shape just looks 'right'.<br /><br />It just feels strange going out shopping at the moment doesn't it, we were good to stay in for another two weeks but had to venture out when we needed a sympathy card buying and posting. We should be okay to stay at home now for a while.

I know you and I are avid yellow sticker shoppers, but all that for me has gone out the window now, when I have to go I get whats on the list and get out as quickly as possible. I have seen people on Instagram still showing off there regular yellow sticker hauls, they still seem to be going out every 5 mintues looking for bargains, it really cracks me up, they are crazy, life is more important than bargains at the moment.xA Life More Simplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17306132788438972437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-11147014172501047732020-04-02T09:28:16.743+01:002020-04-02T09:28:16.743+01:00PS.

I won't be hanging around waiting for them. <br /><br />I have a full cupboard of cat food, that will last a while. <br /><br />I often top up a snack size meal with an egg, adds protein. The other day I did some macaroni cheese, out of a packet, and put an egg on top. You've just reminded me, I haven't had a banana sandwich for ages, that's breakfast sorted. A new seeded loaf and four bananas went in my trolley yesterday.

It is convenient. I will be missing out on the yellows stickers at Tesco but at this moment in time I prefer to shop in a more orderly fashion, and not hang around waiting for the reduced trolley to appear from the warehouse.

I think you are doing the same as me, spin your fresh veggies out and mix them with some frozen. Eat what we already have and no rushing to the shops when we run out of something. I felt quite nervous in Aldi, didn't want to be there longer than I had to.
