Quality Family Time

Does a family day out even count if it doesn't start with leaving nearly an hour late, everyone angry at everyone else, at least one person in tears, and the risk of imminent divorce and/or murder?  Not in our house!

Happy Weekend, everyone!

Just the essentials

13yo's shopping list for Dad this morning:

Starbucks cappuccino (if they have)
Ribena
Bitty orange juice
Precut mango and watermelon
Jesus

Update:

Me: Sorry, no Jesus in Sainsbury's, I'm afraid.
Her: What! That's why Tesco is better!

Valentine's Surprise

Husband, about a week ago: How about we don't spend money on presents and stuff for V Day this year and we get a nice takeaway?

Me: Yep, sounds good!

Me, yesterday, in Tesco: Perhaps I should just get a card... no, we said we wouldn't.

Husband, tonight: Here's a card, and chocolates, and flowers...

Is it only my husband who is as frustrating as he is romantic?!
