Good morning, everyone. A Happy New Year to us all.
Low Spend, No Spend January has officially begun so fingers crossed and off we go! Woo hooooooo!
Yesterday's meals:
Then Beth contacted to say she wasn't well so we rescheduled last night for tonight. Unfortunately, I still nibbled and tippled but there you go. That's life!
Today's plans
Brunch:
I've decided to make this a two meal day today. I'm not hungry at the moment so I'll wait until about twelve thirty when I will have either a nice filled omelette or that Spanish tortilla I had planned for yesterday.
SW: if I add cheese, it will be a healthy extra A, otherwise, syn free.
D: The party nibbles planned for yesterday - assuming Beth and Alex come round. If not, I will get a pre-cooked SW friendly meal out of the freezer and the nibbles can stay in the freezer for another time.
SW: unknown
E: It's much nicer today so a walk seems a good thing to do.
Summary:
one healthy extra A
the rest is off plan but I will try to be sensible
What is low spend, no spend?
All I will buy through January is essentials - and by that I mean short life food such as fresh fruit, veg and dairy/eggs. All other foods will come out of my existing supplies and, to be honest, that may not be much of a challenge. Also included in any low spend essentials are cleaning products and toiletries although I think I am fine for the latter.
Also, anything else absolutely essential that I won't think of until it lands!
That is the low spend part.
Everything else, unless it is either a regular bill/payment/commitment, will not happen. No sneaky little Amazon purchases, no 'bargains' from the supermarket, certainly no clothes . . .
That's the no spend part.
