Only 3 days to go until the August Declutter Challenge begins!!!
I can't wait - can you???
If you haven't read about it yet, please do ----->>> there are some great prizes to be won, but of course, the greatest prize is a decluttered space. I really believe that!
how do you deal with potential conflict?
Last week, Annie and I got talking behind the scenes (on email) about Mexican food. I was drooooling for some and suggested to D that we go to the Spur which we did on Thursday night. I had 2 starters - chicken and cheese quesadillas and some honey and mustard ribs. YUM.
Everything was lovely until the bill came and I saw that they charged me R20 more than they should have for the ribs because I'd ordered them as a side dish not a main dish. So I called the waiter over and asked to see the menu again. Yes, I was right - my eyes weren't deceiving me.
I simply made the changes to the bill and told the waitress, "this is what it says so I've changed it here. And here you go - my credit card"
Dion says he liked the way I just said what was what, and didn't ask if that was okay. :)
So how do you deal with potentially touchy situations?
Anywayyyy, back to the topic this week's menu looks like this:
Monday
M - out with a friend
D - spaghetti bolognaise
Tuesday
My standard stirfried chicken, veggies and rice
Wednesday
Potato bake with mince and kidney beans
Thursday
D - out at a work function
M - the rest of Monday's spaghetti bolognaise :)
Friday
Hot dogs and chips
Now, bookmark this blog (Ctrl + D) and remember to come back on Friday to see what I'm decluttering first.
And I'll have a Mr Linky up so those who are playing along can all link up!
Happy decluttering!

Yes, Geelong is near Melbourne, about an hour's drive away.
I'd post a link to the Cheese & Broccoli Bake but it's out of a magazine, so I'll type out the recipe for Wednesday's post for you.
If you like the sound of that, perhaps you'd like the Broccoli and Bacon Pasta Bake I made earlier this year.
Thanks for the visit!
I like the way you handled that too!
The meal sounds so good!
Thanks for visiting me. I think you handled the situation with the restaurant very well.
We have been eating a lot of lettuce and I have been giving some to my neighbor at least once a week... I seriously went overboard when planting!
Thanks for visiting! I'll come back and visit when I have more time to look around.
