It’s monday again and boy was my weekend a mixed one. Rhodie had a walk and a groom on Saturday. We also spent a solid 3 hours on sorting out our number plates being stolen! Not what we wanted to be doing. Sunday we managed to get our wardrobes delivered and I am over the moon to finally have hanging space and some organisation going on upstairs. But that didn’t come without its troubles, including ripping two thirds of my nail off whilst trying to lift a heavy box. I’m now unable to finish any of the building and unfortunately that falls down to my husband 🙈

How was your weekend? As eventful as mine turned out to be?

It works soooo well with our already bought living room furniture and will look amazing once we paint 🙌🏻 Do you think that’s my favourite saying, because that’s all I keep saying 😂 Done with these bland white walls!

Still very much in love with our rustic dining table from next as we were when we bought it a couple of years ago! And thankfully we managed to get 4 more matching chairs 2 years later, since we no longer have our booth! Perfectly compliments our new kitchen diner! I keep saying it, but we just need colour now!

No transformation Tuesday here this week, but hope No transformation Tuesday here this week, but hopefully next!🤞 We still have a 5 day wait until our wardrobes are delivered and that’s our biggest set back at the mo. Both bedroom 2 & 3 are full of clothes and unpacked boxes 📦 As daft as it may sound, getting these new wardrobes should be a real relief and the turning point for our upstairs! 
-
Aside from that, we still have lots of pieces to shop for our lounge and bedroom! If only that’s what I could do all day rather than work, ay! Where’s your favourite place to shop furniture? I’d love to hear your recommendations 🙌🏻

It’s a good morning Monday from me 🌊 The beau It’s a good morning Monday from me 🌊 The beautiful Sunday sunshine certainly made up for the drizzle we had on Saturday. We soaked up the sunshine and of course the sea breeze, trying to get out of the house, within reason ofcourse. We strolled up and down the seafront several times yesterday and Rhodie was well and truly knackered after. 
I hope you all had a lovely weekend, and a even better week. I myself am so excited for next weekend as it means we finally get our bedroom furniture, including the hotly anticipated wardrobes 🙌🏻

Thankfully we managed to get it done pretty quickly much to our delight. Having a puppy and 20 odd patio slabs for him to do his business on got pretty tedious pretty quickly! 
Now to start the garden planning - I’m actually looking forward to getting green fingered this spring! 👩‍🌾

Food | A lazy girls guide to lunches

This is the PERFECT Sunday blog post.

We are all guilty of the quick pit stops mid afternoon into our nearest shop for a meal deal because despite promising ourselves we would, we didn’t make ourselves lunch and well, a girls gotta eat!

So, you’re back staring at the fridge wondering what on earth to grab, which will keep you to your no-exsistent diet, and keep your purse from weeping.

Truth be told, nothing in that fridge is going to do either. Boo!
So, the reality is, you should’ve made lunch.

But have no fear! Making a packed lunch doesn’t mean you have to spend half an hour in the morning, nor the evening before slaving away just to save a couple of quid. Oh no! There are plenty of quick, easy, tasty and cheap ways you can eat lunch, without moaning you have to make it!

Cereal 
Bear with me, this is lunch I promise. There is nothing better than cold milk poured over your fav cereal, right in the middle of your working day. The night before, all you need to do is pour your fav cereal into a sandwich bag, or plastic container, and be on your way. Add the milk later obviously or you’ll have some soggy mess!

Porridge
This is one of those sachet or pot kinda lunches. But, its super easy to transport to work, warming and easy peasy once lunch time comes around. Just simply add boiling water. Perfect for the colder weather – there is nothing more warming that cinnamon flavoured porridge!!

p.s – this one’s slimming too!!

Sandwich thins / sandwich 
More of a classic lunch, a sandwich, roll or even sandwich thin is a real lunch time quick fix. And I promise you can make a good filling homemade sandwich that will give that over priced super market one a real run for it’s money. Grab a sandwich filler and pile it in with some salad and bobs your uncle – easy.

Orrrr, go a little old skool and crack over some ham, slice some cucumber and you have the perfect british sandwich!!

 Whatever the filling, or whatever tickles your pickle, this is a home made sandwich you can calorie count effectively and will taste sooo much better than any shop bought! 

Pasta Salad
This was a go to for both me and my fiancee back in the good days when I pre-cooked pasta the night before. Whilst this is for sure a lazy girls lunch, it does take some night before prep, but bare with, it tastes ruddy good.

Cook some pasta, season with salt and pepper, and lightly coat with mayo or pesto. Pop on top of some bagged salad and you have a very easy pasta salad. Add some meat if prefered, or be megaaaa lazy, and add pre-cooked pasta to a sandwich filler for the ultimate pasta salad flavouring!

Mugshot 
Other brands can be bought!
These are ruddy brilliant and peeerrrfffeeecccttt for those cold afternoon lunches. Grab a mug, pour in some boiling water, leave to stand and within 5 you have a sultry, good tasting mug of pasta ready and waiting. Whats even better, you only need a kettle and they’re low in calories.

Many flavours can be found including chicken & sweetcorn, cheese & chow mein!

P.s – Aldi’s own, whilst lacking in as many flavours, are just as nice, if not better!!

Gronola with fruit  
Another favorite of mine and my finacee and again another option we embarked on for about 2 months before I stopped night before prepping.

This one is a little easier however.

Use frozen fruit and layer at the bottom of a container. Add some plain yogurt, or flavoured, up to you. Top your yogurt with gronola and bobs your uncle you have a super refreshing lunch which will keep cool all day.

Best bit is, that fruit will be super juicy by morning!

Couscous 
This is ruddy brilliant.
And cheap.
And tasty.
AND LOW IN FAT. HORRAH!

This one ticks all the boxes and takes what, 5- 7mins max! Grab your fav shop bought packet of flavoursome couscous. Boil the kettle. Pour into couscous, mix and let soak. Jump in the shower, get ready for bed, stir a little more and bon appetit, your lunch is prepared and you’ve barely even moved.

So many flavours are on offer, and when lunch time comes around, its filling and tasty! Boom, we have a winner!!

So whether you’ve run out of time to make something, or you need some motivation to have your own lunches rather than good old Tesco’s £3.25 meal deal, hopefully this post has spurred you on that there is ample of options for any lazy girl and their lunch!!

Do you have any go to lazy lunches? 
Something I should give a try?
