la Fée Verte

Here are some tips that i've used over the last few days.

1. Check www.hotukdeals.co.uk . I found a brilliant camera on here. I just love looking at all the bargains i even found something for our anniversary.
2. Buy selling off food. Just because it has todays date doesnt mean it wont be good tomorrow. Obviously use some common sense but you can certainly eat very well and cheaply if you buy food that supermarkets are selling at a reduced price.
3. Dont throw away leftovers, we had my sister and her fella over yesterday and i cooked a little to much Bolognaise sauce so i kept it added 3 tbsp lentils and some boiling water simmered it for 25 mins and voila a delicious Beef and Tomato Soup.
4. Buy the best quality you can afford, i cannot believe that people still buy Smirnoff when Stolichnaya is practically the same price but 100 x better. Stoli is much smoother and much better value for money.

Aside from these few pearls of wisdom i have little to say today. Ohh i'm very much enjoying absinthe at the minute. MMMMMMMM. Just in case someone isnt to sure on how to prepare it-

Absinthe

1. Add a little water to the bottom of a tumbler.
2. Rest a teaspoon across the top of the glass.
3. Place a sugar cube (or a teaspoon of sugar) onto the spoon.
4. Pour the absinthe over the sugar about a shot.
5. Light the sugar using a matchstick and allow the sugar to mealt but not burn or caramalise.
6. Stir through the burning sugarand absinthe and water.
7. ENJOY
