On Saturday I went for a little walk which is not exciting but I have been housebound for 4 years so just starting to go out love Eds face when he's looking in the box
Hello from the future! Good to see you, Claire and Ed. Hope your eye healed quickly. On Saturday I mostly just got some groceries and tried to recover my life in Canada, having been away since Feb in the deep south. Not as lovely as seeing bluebells, for sure! You got some terrific finds at that recycle store. What a lovely weekend you had!
What a fabulous bargain those pans were! Loved everything about your vlog. Delightful walk, adorable cat, great food haul and some yummy food. Think I may need to cook a fry up for myself 😂 My weekend highlight was in the cooking department: made a batch of homemade chicken soup, and tried a Swedish recipe : beef a La Lindstrom which is the yummiest burger I’ve ever tried (beef mince, beetroot, capers Dijon mustard, anchovies, mashed potato)
I am sorry about your eye and I hope it will be back to normal very soon. I loved the brisk jaunt in the woodlands. Very hot here where I live today. Chilly one day,boiling the next. I dread Summer.
Thank you, it's better than it was. My mum keeled over laughing. One of my very earliest memories is my little sister doing the exact same thing to our mum with a jigsaw piece. It's still cold here (2-3 degrees overnight) but we have a random day next week due to be 21 degrees! I'm about the retire the woodburner for the season xx
I take the wild garlic and blend it with olive oil and seasoned with salt. For using on bread Used to be a lot better when the price of oil wasn't so high 😅
No sooner did I hear "biscuit base," my brain also thought "buttery biscuit base," it wouldn't be the first time I've thought something and you've said it 😅 xx
@mumthings No I don't unfortunately, working all day. Although Lily has been asking to do a simmer pot, so maybe I'll do a Beltane themed simmer pot. How about you? Xx
Wasn't feeling my best on Saturday so I did absolutely nothing all day. Ouch! Hope your eye gets better quickly. Very nice tgtg box! I'm supposed to be in a zoom meeting with fellow beaders so I'm off. Have a great week! Love Idris! 🥰🐢
This weekend hubby took youngest daughter out as I’m new knee post op two weeks so my weekend doing my physio with painkillers staples come out Thursday yeahhhhh then hopefully in a couple weeks I can go out in a car, not been able since my accident in November lucky I found your vids and box sets lol xxx love Yorkshire but live in the midlands lots of museums to take kids we don’t live to far from cosford air museum it’s free just need to pay for parking my daughters love the planes some they can sit in and great pubs child friendly near by. We live just in the edge of a city it’s green farm land behind us with cancel walks it was great in lockdown and Sunday sunny afternoon. Great vid as always to be fair my hubby would be all over the sticky toffee pudding too 😂
Hope you’re having a speedy recovery! Ah I bet it will be so good to have that bit of freedom back. What a rough time! Never been to Cosford air museum but it sounds great! Xx
Love the pans what a bargain. Feel better soon sweetheart. Baldur our Neapolitan Mastiff puppy sends his love. Ed's face looking in the box 😂 bless him. Take care my lovelies 😘🥰 xxx
Raspberries, I find do not have staying power. When I buy raspberries I must eat them the day I buy them or the following day. By the third day they are getting fuzzy. They are delicious though.
Yes, we live in Leyland, where is Tom Benson way? Ed always makes me laugh when he is with you with magic boxes or bags, he gets really excited if there is something for him, his face is a picture, love him lol, I am so wanting to go to the recycle shop, I love going to charity shops, I usually get loads of books, I am an avid reader and it saves me pounds getting them in thrift shops, hope your eye is better soon.
It’s the recycling centre in Preston. If you have instagram drop me a message on there and I’ll send you the address (or email clairemumthings@gmail.com) 😊 The eyes much better thanks! Flailing baby nails are dangerous! Xx
My wife just bought a cast iron casserole dish she read you must not put them in dishwasher you got a good bargain there keep up the videos me and my wife watch we have a great laugh at you two😅
Oh definitely one to hand wash! And don’t use anything too abrasive. If things get burned on I find the best way to clean it without using anything too harsh is either using salt as an abrasive and a damp cloth, or boiling a little water and baking soda in it on the hob to lift it xx
Am I right in saying you’re near Preston Pauline? I’m sure I remember you saying that in a comment. It’s the recycling centre on Tom Benson way if you’re local xx
Those cast iron pans are a steal well done 👏 well worth it. I was at the allotment saturday then back home to work on our campervan conversion I stocked up on beed joints when they were on offer and now guess what .. my teens gone off beef 😂 also gone off "dinners" 😂
Off dinners? Are they feeling ok? I actually grew up in Northumberland for a few years and Beamish was always on the school trips! That and Cragside. We’ve got a holiday in Kielder coming up which I’m very excited about! X
Wish our tip did that my husband worked there for a while and was horrified about what was skipped they weren’t allowed to take anything out or even give it to charity, ( cumbria )
Ah that’s a shame! Last time I was there myself and an employee intercepted a lovely lady who was about to skip a paddling pool (which he took for his grandkids) and some garden border edging that I took. They are very pro reducing waste to landfill here which is lovely. The staff are on guard to stop anything from going into a skip that could be resold or recycled xx
Really, I'm not in UK, but Ireland. I don't know if they're native or spanish bluebells, I typically see spanish and not native here sadly. I've spent the last few years trying to get rid of Spanish bluebells from my garden.
I love those pans . Went into harajuku as the boss is obsessed with my kids. And kept giving them treats. Went to a cat cafe as the dog hates cats so this our solution. It’s called coca it’s really popular with bloody influencers so I we don’t go as often. And then went food shopping later to grab bargains!! And to fight off the grannies Which is always a challenge. But we did grab some great stuff like Salmon and fried chicken which ed would die for!!
A delightful walk in beautiful woods,among the bluebells and wild garlic 👌🥰🩵💜🩷 A tgtg that was simply too good to miss Hope your eye is doing better? Have a feeling you’ve taken a bashing lately (not that type of bashing) xx
On Saturday I went for a little walk which is not exciting but I have been housebound for 4 years so just starting to go out love Eds face when he's looking in the box
I’d say that’s extremely exciting! So happy you’re getting out and about 😊 I hope you had a wonderful time xx

I still get big fruit boxes and that size depends what fruit and veg your getting using those boxes
I think we finally figured out it was grapes! Xx

Oh my days, capers, mustard. Anchovies?! You are talking my language! Sounds delicious. Glad you enjoyed! Xx
Looks like it was a lovely weekend for you all .
It was thank you 😊 hope you’re having a lovely weekend! Cx
You pair are so funny! I wish we had Too good to go boxes in Australia. It would eliminate loads of waste. Have a great week. 😊
I hope it gets rolled out there soon! It’s definitely a great way of reducing waste. Hope you have a good week too! Xx
I am sorry about your eye and I hope it will be back to normal very soon. I loved the brisk jaunt in the woodlands.

Just picked up 2 To Good To Go bags from my local Aldi tonight, Clare. They were amazing!! 😊😊xx
Yay! Glad you got good ones, what was in them? Xx
Great vlogs, you are young and glamorous, but have the wisdom and intelligence of someone older and wise. Great cats too and a funny husband!
Aw thank you so much! I'm psychologically 92 (physically 36) xx
@@mumthings you are! x

🤣 great minds think alike xx
Ed is hilarious 😅
I love bluebells and walking in the woods ❤
He is 🤣 the eye is on the mend thanks. Do you have anything exciting planned for Wednesday? Xx
@mumthings No I don't unfortunately, working all day. Although Lily has been asking to do a simmer pot, so maybe I'll do a Beltane themed simmer pot. How about you? Xx
Listening to Faun as well, but I do that a lot anyway
Wasn't feeling my best on Saturday so I did absolutely nothing all day. Ouch! Hope your eye gets better quickly. Very nice tgtg box! I'm supposed to be in a zoom meeting with fellow beaders so I'm off. Have a great week! Love Idris! 🥰🐢
Ah hope you’re feeling better now! Beading sounds awesome. What kinds of things do you make? Xx
@mumthings earrings, bracelets, necklaces, key chains, simple things. Am felling better, thanks!

Raspberries, I find do not have staying power. When I buy raspberries I must eat them the day I buy them or the following day. By the third day they are getting fuzzy. They are delicious though.
Oh absolutely. Soft fruits just don't last. I'm hoping the raspberry i've planted in the garden takes but so far no shoots... xx

I went to big Tesco and picked up some bits for rebating.
Nice! Hope you got some bargains xx
I'm in love with your cats!!!! Don't think my girl furball would be impressed if she knew lol
Aw she'd understand I'm sure (no she wouldn't, my word these cats are territorial haha!) xx

I stocked up on beed joints when they were on offer and now guess what .. my teens gone off beef 😂 also gone off "dinners" 😂
By the way if your up north ... beamish is excellent day out kids would love it and plenty of walking
Off dinners? Are they feeling ok?
I actually grew up in Northumberland for a few years and Beamish was always on the school trips! That and Cragside. We’ve got a holiday in Kielder coming up which I’m very excited about! X
Those pan's would be great for making fondue on your open fire stove! Yum ❤🐨❤
Oh yum!! Or warming mulled wine… xx

Everybody should have an Ed. I have one. We call him Martin but he’s an Ed ❤️🤣
Yes, everyone needs an Ed / Martin in their lives 🥰 xx
Such a handsome floofy boy. He looks so soft
He is so soft, both to cuddle and in personality. Every house needs a Ragdoll xx
Haha Morocco is like 2-3 hours flight and in the same timezone so not jetlagged...
🤣 you underestimate my ability to be exhausted my travel xx
Idris is indeed a handsome chap.
He is 🥰 xx
And so is morph,no cat favouritism here 😸
Good box, don't be annoyed at ed he is hungry lol.
Poor lad never gets fed 🤣 xx
Love all your videos, but this one made a nice change. Would be very very happy with more lifestyle ones.
I’m so glad you enjoyed! Xx
Love bluebells. Did you know it’s illegal to pick bluebells..
Is it really? Genuine question x
Really, I'm not in UK, but Ireland. I don't know if they're native or spanish bluebells, I typically see spanish and not native here sadly. I've spent the last few years trying to get rid of Spanish bluebells from my garden.
I think I did know that! At least I knew it was illegal to dig them up. I did buy some seeds and hope to plant some at the end of my garden xx
I love those pans . Went into harajuku as the boss is obsessed with my kids. And kept giving them treats. Went to a cat cafe as the dog hates cats so this our solution. It’s called coca it’s really popular with bloody influencers so I we don’t go as often. And then went food shopping later to grab bargains!! And to fight off the grannies Which is always a challenge.

That sounds like a fun weekend! Xx
I did housework in Saturday morning and then chilled out with Tv and doing cross stitch in the afternoon
Sounds like a lovely weekend! Xx
@@mumthings yeah I love needlecraft I've made a few things

@@mumthings any recommendations for veggie food places
😂😂 Ed pushing you out xx
Stealing my light... How dare he xx
Ed is so cute ❤
He is 🥰 xx
Ike Aberdeen Angus beef
Are they le Creuset? They are worth £80 - £100 if so! Why wouldn't someone donate to charity, rather than the dump if they didn't want them??!!
Chasseaur! Not quite Le Creusset but lovely and flippin expensive new! xx
A delightful walk in beautiful woods,among the bluebells and wild garlic 👌🥰🩵💜🩷
A tgtg that was simply too good to miss
Hope your eye is doing better?
