Boxing day shopping

This year’s boxing day shopping was such an experience for me. I have never spent so much money in my life!! Everything was 50% discount, if not more! How can one possibly resist eh? I am so broke now, I don’t know how I am going to get my new TV that I have dreamt [...]

New arrangement for work

So I had a phone call from my boss today, updating me on a few things. He agreed I am a Torbay relief pharmacist, so I only work within my area. He also agreed on 1.5 pay on my Sunday shifts. Then he also said I can cover my tutor’s day offs on Mondays.
Well the [...]

Honey roast nuts

Did I tell you I hate nuts very much? I do like chocolates, but if they do contain nuts, I won’t touch it at all. I am so different from my dad, he loves nuts, any sort, especially cashew nuts, and it is his favourite. But there are always exceptions to everything eh? People can [...]

I do everything at work

For the huge salary pharmacists are drawing every month, should pharmacist only do prescriptions checking? I had a friend who attended the same training as me last year. I have heard several rumours that he is acting like a snob in the pharmacy, and made a statement that he will only check prescriptions. To me, [...]

Wild mushrooms tortelloni

Do you like tortelloni?? It is pasta filled with stuff i.e cheese, tomato, bacon, chicken, mushrooms etc. I used to think they were wantons when I first came to England, how silly eh? Those were the days. I liked the wild mushrooms tortelloni very much, especially with carbonara creamy sauce. If you havn’t got any [...]

Couldron Tofu

I managed to get tofu from tesco, so happy. Normally I can only find tofu in Chinese stores. I can’t believe Tesco sell them too. But this packet of tofu is so expensive! It cost £2.39. However, I wasn’t disappointed when I received my groceries today; the tofu is actually very huge. Enough to cook [...]

Had an Indian lunch today

This is what I had today. Normally when I go to co-op supermarket for their microwavable rice dishes, I’d opt for the discounted options, however today there was nothing on discount. I was contemplating on having sandwiches instead, but you know I hate cold sandwiches during this weather. So I spent £2.79 for this chicken [...]

costa coffee

I have developed a new habbit, that is to stop by at costa to get hot chocolate or mocha before heading to work. That is a terrible habbit! Anything involving more food/drinks and money is a bad thing for me right now. If you follow my blog, you’d know I have been over spending on [...]
