Day 58: Eulogy to a Dead Bag

Six Months. That's how long this rucksack has lasted under the pressure of my college work. On my busiest day, I carry just short of 17kg (37lbs) in my bag.  Today called the end of the era of the blinding pink rucksack when the plastic buckle that holds the strap together snapped when I got onto the bus.

Day 46: Taco Night

I decided to change things up for dinner today. The only thing resembling Mexican that we do is mince and veg with fajita seasoning on a bed of tortilla chips. I randomly spotted a taco box set and fancied them, so checked that they were wheat/gluten free and off we went. They're an absolute hit with The Imp! She's asked for seconds, and has even eaten the lettuce and grated carrot of the salad mix that I've bought (she hates carrots, but I figure that I can hide them with stuff like this).
