In the English Kitchen today . . . Creamy Potato Gratin. Simple and indulgent.
Have a fabulous Friday!! I am going into town this morning to pick up some salad stuff at M&S. Their fresh fruit and veg lasts twice as long as anyone else's. Its worth it to pay a tiny bit more. Don't forget!

Hi Marie, some lovely finds this week! I'm sure M&S have got 10% off all there Eat Well range, which includes fruit and veg. Have a lovely day, lots of love xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks for that Info Kate, my trip into town will be well timed! Love and hugs back and happy day wishes! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI too must go out today and get some fresh foods. The cupboards are well stocked, but those fresh things must be purchased every week it seems. Hope you have a fantastic Day!
ReplyDeleteYou are sure right about that Pam! You need fresh along with the storecupboard things. I wish I could convince my husband of that simple truth! Have a great day! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI wish we had a Marks near us for that sort of thing but we have to go into Bath which in itself would be no bother as its only about 5 miles away but parking is a horror we have to be in by 9 in the morning to be ...nearly....sure of a spot....Thankfully we do have a good garage just out of the village they usually have the best Vegs.....love all your ideas this morning Marie, best was tip for de icing the car but can't think where we could buy that isopropop or whatever the alchohol it was that she used...do you know Marie ?.....was a wee bit warmer this morning but dull and now the rain has started...thankfully we have not been,out....Been trying to write a few letters...hope you got on well in town xxxxx
ReplyDeleteGood evening Marie,
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed the delights of Brighton today. We went into a Sainsbury's to buy a few things. I had fun comparing price. I must indulge in my love of clementines. There were none to be found this Christmas. Our mandarin season is a few months off.
I had a big smile as I read your blog as I wanted to start bullet journal this year. When I had a quiet time I did some research but it needs to be set up. I loved the witches socks too.
We will be there Sunday late. Beth has decided I cannot go alone as I was so ill on the plane and overnight too. I will have to buy a phone card so I can speak to you before we leave.
God bless and lots of love.
Hi Marie~
ReplyDeleteI always find something I love on your, Friday Finds! I really love the crochet rug and the aromatherapy mixtures. But, what I really love is your recipe for Creamy Potato Gratin. My daughter gave me a zoodle maker for Christmas, and it makes the most lovely potato ribbons, can't wait to make this one!
Hugs,
Barb
Parking is a horror and nightmarishly expensive in Chester also Sybil which is why we take the bus. I know that is not an option for you. There is a car park over top of the M&S however and also in Cheshire Oaks which is not far from us there is a HUGE M&S, which I have never been to, but is said to be fabulous. I have not searched for the Isoprophyl yet, but I have heard that you can do the same thing with white vinegar and water. I will check it out! Love and hugs! xoxo
ReplyDeleteAhh, Suzan, so glad you are enjoying Brighton. Did you get to the Royal Pavilion I wonder or the toy museum. I never did get to see those the whole time we lived down south. I am sorry you were so sick on the plane. I cannot imaging what it feels like to be sick on a plane. God bless and see you soon. xoxo
Glad you liked some of what I posted Barb! I have a zoodle maker somewhere. I should dig it out and use it I think! xoxo
Amazing finds as always! I don't know how you find these items. I loved all the crocheted ones. I wish I was good at that. Love the gifts jars; they are the best. I will look at this one more closely. I like the bullet journal since I am having difficulty keeping up on mine.
ReplyDeleteI will spend sometime looking at many of these items; they were awesome. Thanks for your hard work in finding these things to share. Blessings and hugs for you!
I bought a couple of new journals yesterday to bullet in LeAnn! Can't wait to get started! Blessings and hugs right back! xoxo
