Another success in the kitchen department...

... ooh well my baking seems to have turned a corner - two successful cakes!!

voila:

Carrot cake (with cream cheese icing!!) recipe courtesy of What Kate Baked... tastes yummy too!!

In my bid to being frugal/organised I am trying to stick to meal plans and I feel more organised and the shopping bill is better when I am not buying things I dont need I am linking up with At Home with Mrs M and posting my meal plan for the week:


Monday: meatballs & pasta
Tuesday: pancakes
Wednesday: Shepherds Pie & beans
Thursday: BBQ pork chops, Jacket Potatoes & Corn on the cob
Friday: Kids at Nannas & we are hopefully out for the day - so tea out I think - if not a takeaway (feel slightly justified in having one as not had one in AGES -lol)
Saturday : Corned Beef Stew (only for me and hubby - kids still at Nannas)
Sunday: Roast Lunch (probably chicken) & sandwiches for tea.

We tend not to do desserts but there is fruit/biscuits/cakes/yoghurts available.

  2. Ooooh Carrot cake, its one of my favourites. Well done on being so organised. I'm challenging myself to be more frugal and keep the shopping bill down, also to make use of what I have in stock. Your menu looks lovely.
