Featherdown Farm Holiday
We’re all getting pretty excited here and no it’s not another Christmas post, (‘cos let’s face it, I’m a bit of a Christmas nut and the excitement for that time of year is slowly creeping up on me!) it’s a Featherdown Farm post because our holiday starts tomorrow :o)
I really can’t wait to get away for the week with Ant and the kids and the thought of cooking all our food on a wood burner in the tent or on a fire outside fills me with happiness!
I normally plan a full menu for the week when we go on holiday which usually includes a complete shopping list to accompany it, although we’re not that good at sticking to lists when it comes to holiday food shopping.
It seems to have become a tradition with us that whenever we go on holiday we spend half of the first day in Tesco, stocking up for the week and we usually spend more than double our weekly shop because we buy treats for everyone; things we’d normally say no to on a regular shopping trip get put into the trolley because, ‘hey, we’re on holiday, we might as well enjoy it’, syndrome steps in!
This year however, I aim to stick to my slimming world diet, so I won’t be buying too many goodies! I’m pleased we’ve chosen this holiday and not one where I’ll be tempted by fish and chips and hot doughnuts!
I haven’t planned the food though and I’m running out of time so I’d best get some ideas down for cooking on a wood burning stove!
This will be my last post for the week. I was going to schedule some for next week but again I’m running out of time so you all get a break from me for one whole week!
See you in November :o)
