When there’s enough I make broccoli and Stilton soup. A chef once told me the stalks make a better flavour and texture. I just buy the value Stilton.

Be thankful that we have Lild's, which offers a good choice of quality food at affordable prices; be thankful you know how to cook - a lot rely too much on ready-made meals; be thankful you have a garden - I grew up in a shop with my parents and all we had was a back yard (and not the 'yard' as in the American sense, but wall-to-wall concrete.) Be thankful you have somewhere to clean, and consider cleaning as making the environment in which you live comfortable and attractive; and finally, all cars break down in time, they were put on this earth to piss us off occasionally. In total, just count up the good things, you might feel just a little bit better, Frugal in Bucks.<br />Margaret P <br />galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2602003689052110981.post-45002763804274351692016-05-04T10:33:25.004+01:002016-05-04T10:33:25.004+01:00Hoping to read you again soon, too, FIB! xxxHoping to read you again soon, too, FIB! xxxFrugal Wenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14092764677274641408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2602003689052110981.post-55594354817499502112016-03-29T08:25:04.113+01:002016-03-29T08:25:04.113+01:00Wow, it has been a long time since you posted here...Wow, it has been a long time since you posted here.

Don't worry about your food budget, mine is near to that amount these days, healthy eating doesn't come that cheap does it? Im also spending money buying extra to make meals for my parents, I don't begrudge them a penny! <br />I can totally understand people moving to the sun in later years, the warm weather is so much easier on your body plus it seems a more relaxed way of life. Eventually I would like to do 3 x month long stays in Cyprus each year but hubby might need persuading!! <br />Its lovely to have you back and thank you for your lovely comments on my blog.<br />Take care.
