    ❤ MORE ABOUT ME ❤
    I'm a 31 year-old mum of three, who lives in Cheshire, in the UK. I have a son called, Bill, and I am no longer with his dad, as we split mutually when he was a baby. I never imagined my life as it is now, with children to different partners, but I am so happy that it is my life. I met Mark in the summer of 2013, and we became firm friends. We fell in love when I became single and we’ve never looked back. We have a daughter, called Daisy, born April 2016, and a son, called Stanley, born March 2018. This is us now. I'm done having babies and just excited to watch them grow, as a family of five. I don't consider myself to be anything other than a mostly-happy, mostly-tired, average mum. But I hope you enjoy following my story anyway. x

    Hi Charlotte! I've seen your recipe for no knead bread and fancy having a go but I would love to see a video of it actually being made?

  • @justkillthemwithkindness6745
    @justkillthemwithkindness6745 4 роки тому +2

    its not just you Charlotte, our supermarkets have stopped putting yellow signs up for ''specials'' and fruit and vegies have risen in price! Seven weeks after the panic buying started, some of the necessities like pasta, flour, and etc are still flying off the shelves and increased in price! Your aldi is very similar to our aldi in Australia and I can see some of the same brands like the pasta that your purchased in my own pantry from aldi. Opposites sides of the planet with the same pasta brand, lol. thumbs up .

    I do agree that food shopping is more expensive at the moment - nowhere seems to have any offers on like usual! Also, those dishwasher tablets are fab - I don’t use anything else!

    @Lauren-mv2bl 4 роки тому +1

    Thank you for the meal inspiration. Since lockdown I've been lacking inspiration for meals. I think because it's a struggle to get some bits now and want to minimise the amount of time you spend in the supermarket! I would love to see some cook-a-long type videos or like a raid the fridge / cupboard for a meal! Testing your creativity 😘

  • @michellejohnson7062
    @michellejohnson7062 4 роки тому

    Thanks for doing these videos Charlotte, I love the little slice of normality at the moment and it certainly gives me some good ideas for new meals. I agree that food shopping definitely seems more expensive at the moment, but I put it down to me only doing 1 big shop a week rather than nipping in for little bits more often. I bet if I added all the little shops together it would end up working out the same! Keep doing what you're doing with these videos, it's certainly helping this frazzled, exhausted working and home schooling mum of two! xx

    You're not wrong Charlotte. I've noticed a lot of my "normal" food shop items (cat food, ice cream etc) have gone up 20-30p. Which is not a great deal but does add up to a lot. As always, great video. Love your food hauls. Xx

      @hannahgreen8392 4 роки тому

    Oh my god, £140 for that.. I’m sure you think that’s expensive but that’s so cheap compared to what I’ve been paying at Tesco for 3 adults.. we feel bankrupt! Plus you got toiletries & other bits! We’re now refusing to go back to Tesco as we just can’t afford it, so we’re off to Aldi in a few weeks. Great haul! And yes.. teary most days too, just coming out of a huge pain flare up of my chronic disabilities because I’m just harbouring so much worry & stress. We’ll get through it though xx

    Sounds delicious, as always! 💕I am going to add chili con carne to our meal plan this week using veggie ground “beef” and will definitely be trying your no knead bread recipe. Thanks for the idea! Other meals for us this week: tacos, spring veggie risotto with home made ciabatta, steaks (with roasted cauliflower for me) and potato wedges with string beans, Belgian waffles and fruit salad. 🙂Hope you and your family are well? I hope your parents are doing okay with all of this virus stuff? ~Krislynner

  • @PCA05KAT
    @PCA05KAT 4 роки тому

    I think what you spent was good for what you got. I usually buy shampoo from Superdrug etc so when all that’s added to supermarket shop it does get more expensive. Although, I’m not sure about Aldi but I feel Tesco and Asda prices have gone up or there are less roll backs maybe?

  • @Sarahbeal90

Didn’t see the glow tonic dupe either, I would ave got that as almost finished my Pixi one. I spent £200 at Aldi last week jeez! For two of us! But £67 was booze 😂
