And down.....

For every up there is a down <sigh>

Got woke super early by kids Mr C had the foulest nappy, so I guess those cookies weren't good for him :( I'll try them without the chocolate just incase it's that part. He's not good on cocoa/choco products.

I really need to take note of things earlier in the day, get to this time of day & the mind is a blank! 


After school snack, super simple waffles :)
1cup flour, 1 ts baking powder, 1 egg, 1 cup of milk or milk subsitute.
G/F version 1 egg, 3 TB G/F flour, 2 TB milk or subsitute. 
Just mix all the ingredients together. We have a waffle machine which has been worth it's weight in gold over the years!


Ahhh breakfast, ricies & pear syrup! plus toast with pear jam for both kids. Mr C had his wheat free version.


Not sure what dinner is going to be as it'll just be Mr C & I as everyone else is going to the rugby.


I unfortunately seem to be drinking copious amounts of coffee at the moment, certainly not FS, not sure why I'm bothering to drink it as I'm not feeling a caffeinee kick from it :(


Dinner was one of those quick simple fixes as the Hubby & Miss A were off to the rugby!


Mock cheesy pasta
Pasta obviously, what ever kind you want, we have to cook 2 lots, one wholemeal & the other Rice /Quinoa for Mr C
Sauce is a basic white sauce:
TB oil,
2-3 cloves of garlic,
TB G/F flour ( or normal flour),
1 cup of milk or substitute,
Salt to taste approx a teaspoon will give a cheesy taste, over do it & you get a salty taste.
We also add bacon or chicken or what ever meat you feel like. Tonight was bacon, we don't have an issue with Amines or if one of us does we haven't figured it out yet.


So again eating from the simple ingredients in our cupboard, my cheap sauce saves us a good $3-5 dollars? We tend to eat this once a week so that's a saving of $18ish over a month!

  1. Note to self...Mr C only had a couple of mouthfuls, his bum is on fire. Sauce was made with Soy.
