September 11th 2010


First day of our 1940’s experiment living on rations.
First job cup of tea, half asleep I made a pot of tea. bit forgot the tea strainer, had to poor it all back into the pot and restrain milk and all!
Today we wanted to go and attend doors open day in bristol so i had acked lunches to make  spam sandwiches  and a apple. I also left holly a packed lunch or marmite sandwiches.
( we have decided to eat half and half bread as holly will not eat brown bread and it would not be fair to starve her) 
Breakfast was great we all had toast  with home made jam ( holly had marmite)
After a great  day out at doors open day we went blackberry picking and apple scrumping.
By this point stating to feel very tired as i have been on my feet since 6am and still not cooked tea. so we went for a easy tea.
Potato  fritters , one sausage each , home made chutney and beans. we finished with tined fruit.
The best bit about today was the washing up as we all helped and it was so much better than me loading the dish washer on my own and every one else just going of to do their own thing.
So with tea cooked washed up dried and put away we all sat down with no TV  it did feel a little strange, I started knitting a hat , holly did her homework and dave read!
By 9.30 we where all ready for bed!!!
