The FastDay Forum

I failed to add that i have ben n jerrys karamel sutra ice cream for afters!
Dindins in oven now,looking forward to it
Been for a walk,fresh air was lovely..not quite walkin on air beany...and walking back it was more like trying to push my way thru treacle but i enjoyed it nevertheless,and stopping off at the Co op for afters was the best bit! x

Sounds as though you need to have a bit of a fast today Candy! And what on earth is Kuma Satra ice-cream when its at home!
I see you two are fasting today (thats what I like to see). What are your plans for today? And when will you be eating?
I had a surprise this morning. Yesterday, I listed an expensive Sherlock (as I mentioned earlier...like holding a shrunken Benedict Cumberbath in my little mitts!) and I've sold it ALREADY! Can you believe it?!! Mind you, they haven't paid for it yet...but they live in Finland so I don't even have to pay for postage which is terrific!
Hmmm am feeling a bit on the peckish side already!
Bean

Wellllll Done on that sale@nursebean! what a great start to your week!
Well i' m sitting here drinking lemon in warm water..delish..
YES Bean i am peckish too! But just think how busily our bodies are repairing! And resting after all the grub w' ve given it!
Getting my hair cut soon x what colour are you these days Beano? I loved yr pink hair phase x

Well after yesterday's massive lunch out I didn't eat another thing all day.
This morning felt fine, then realised that I've nearly completed. 24hr fast this lunchtime.
Had a cuppa soup, have salmon and stir fry veg for dinner. And it will be early due to class. At the dentist for check up after school.
Yes bean what colours the hair ?

Hmmm warm water? Not sure about that scenario!
Well done on your 24-hour fast Oatsey! Blimey you must have had an enjoyable lunch
My hair is just light blonde now. Recently I dyed it purple...but it wasn't a subtle colour it was WAH WAAAH! so I promptly had to bleach it again. I'm not sure I like this colour anymore but am not sure what to do next. Maybe I should just let it go a natural shade
What flavour cuppa soup is it today then?
Bean

Thanks for the locks ipdate Bean..wd have liked to see the purple,i think that sounds gorgeous
Its minestrone cuppasoup for me today..Due at four but might go a bit wild and have it a bit earlier!
Noooooo sleep again last night for Candy Cane so think i' ll have a nap first x

Is Cuppa Soup all you're having Candy?
Well, I can't believe today. I've managed to sell 43 items! That is a record in our little shop...and long may it last! It's all very exciting
Bean

Bean

Ohh thats fab news about all yr sales Ching ching! X

Do you feel better today Carie? X how are the old glands today? X
PS i just had mad urge to lick the tv screen just then..a choccy ad x xx

Hi - good to hear everyone sounding so positive here. We had a gorgeous meal at a friend's yesterday - didn't get a pic but it was roast chicken (there was gammon as well), roast pots and parsnips, carrots, mashed swede with breadcrumb top, cabbage with bacon and garlic and leeks in cheese sauce - heaven! Pud was a suet pud with a whole lemon, sugar and butter inside with custard - very lemony and yummy. Was so stuffed afterwards even though I only had one potato! Good thing it was a fast day today!

Oh @madcatlady I'm glad I didn't have to read that on a fast day! That just sounds so delish!
For some reason I thought I'd weigh myself this morning after my successful fast yesterday. I've lost 3 pounds already! I'm happy with that
The sales were crazy yesterday so I really hope it lasts! Its great to see gaps on the shelves! (blimey, I've just noticed how much I used exclamation marks!! I'm terrible!!! )
Anyway, how are my buddies today? Feeling good after yesterday's fast? Candy, did you get some sleep last night? And Oatesy? Did you go to Zumba last night? Yes, and how are your glands. It sounded as though they were getting better. Have they sorted themselves out yet?
Have a great day everyone, fasting or not
Bean

Thats very encouraging Bean! Well done x!
Yes yesterday was a good day wasnt it? ....Foodwise..but v little sleep last night for poor old Candy.
Hehe! During my short sleep,i was dreaming i was eating a massive bar of chocolate!
Now crazed by lack of sleep. In a blur today,need to totter out to pick up a prescription..Also, need to buy more magnesium tabs i think,they do help with sleep.
Have a good day girlies x

Knew you'd be glad you weighed beany.
Don't be afraid of those scales. They are your friend who's not afraid to tell you the truth.
I'm all better now thanks. Dentist was an all clear too.
Went to aldi to buy some bits to try out for Xmas, fudge, nougat, choccy's. All very nice and also cheap. Nuts next.

You can keep your nuts, Oatesy but I like the sound of the chocolate, fudge and nougat!! Mmm I'm SO glad its not a fast day today!
Talking of dreams Candy, I had a weird one this morning where I was in the loo and some woman opened the door. She was really glamorous with a white wig and I was really cross that she'd opened the door on me. Next thing I knew, I was being licked and hugged by little Minsie. She always worries about me and my moods. What a darling little girl she is xx
Haven't had any more sales this morning. I'm not surprised after yesterday's chaos. At least I'll have time to add some more listings today...hopefully!
Hope everyone's days is going splendidly so far.

Wow it's Wednesday already.

Just been in the loft to get some charity stuff down for the bag collection.
Also got the Xmas decs down ready for next weekend.
This weekend we are away in manchester with my sis for a grown ups weekend.
Going to James martins restaurant, and a casino. I will be wearing a short dress. Yipeeeee , and I now don't need my magic undies to keep the bulges in check.
No toffee today, but a piece of home made almond cake did squeeze it's way down this morning. It's been crazy at work as we had an asssessed practical with yr 11. I was a busy busy girl.
