Morphy Richards Spiralizer
Yesterday, I bought a spiralizer. I already had a manual one but I found myself using it less and less as 1/ I don't have a proper kitchen and everything has been in boxes for the last year, 2/ it makes such a mess, particularly with courgettes and cucumbers, the water coming out of the vegetables drips everywhere.
As we are coming close to Black Friday good deals and promotions are popping up everywhere, and you can bag an electric Morphy Richards spiralizer for under £35. As I'm trying to increase our speed vegetables in our plates, it made sense to buy one.

Turkey stir fry
I gave my new spiralizer a good go and made ribbon out of courgettes, carrots and butternut squash. I had some turkey to be used in the freezer. I like stir fry but I found that most stir fry sauce have loads of syns and let's face it I'm more prepared to use them for treats than everyday food.
So I went to my favourite website at all he moment Pinch of Nom, and found one 2 syns for 4 people or 0.5 syn per person woohoo!!!
They call it the half syn hoisin chicken or in my case turkey

I used the very yummy PB2 (powdered peanut). It's so lush, made me realised how much I missed peanut butter. 1.5 tablespoons of the stuff is only 1.5 syns, mix it with water and it forms a peanut paste.

I'm crazy
That's what I told myself today.... and you may ask why?
Well with all the good intentions in the world I started Slimming World again very close to my birthday. I know I am now wondering if on top I do not have a bit of a sadistic touch in me too. But I told myself it's ok, I can do it. Turned out that NO... I can't do it.
And then December was around the corner, and once again I told myself easy peasy... it will be a walk in the park haha Not. I was counted on me not being that popular but recently I started taking part in different craft groups around my area and I took a new job in August. So I ended up going to a lot more Christmas party than before. 2015: 0- 2016: 4 and still a few more to go to.
And even if I started with all the good will in the world, I did not plan properly and that folks is my bigggest downfall. That and working for the NHS where chocolate and biscuits are available all the time....
