it was like a quest from never ending story only i wasn’t saving the world, it was rather more important than that old thing.  I Found the perfect pasta jars.  I have scoured blogs and online shops as well as high street ones.

a lot were just try hard. i wanted see through jars. i want to see what pasta i have left and what i have used. but i didn’t want a schmantsy locking mechanism, opaque glass, the word ‘pasta’ on anywhere.  and today i hit the holy grail – and the holy grail had 20% off.

It doesn’t stop there. i wanted an atop the stove kettle.  choice between tin thing from camping shop and fake enamel try hard.

in the same shop as the pasta jars, we found holy grail number too and it to had 20% off.

DH then had to tell the girl that she took 20p off and that actually the total should be a lot lower ( ne named the exact amount) i was much impressed at his assertiveness.

yay.
