    Bad - I have bought hardly any Christmas presents

    Good - I have a decent idea of what I'm buying people, it's just a case of actually doing it

    Good - It's my sister's birthday on Tuesday, so we're out celebrating tomorrow night

    Bad - A few people have dropped out due to illness/money/work, so she is getting a bit worried that nobody will turn up

    Bad - She has invited people to start the party at my flat, so I'm guessing that it won't be a pretty sight come Sunday!

    Graze did well this week, everything was yummy, only a pile of yukky almonds left over in my box.

    Ah, Graze. This will be the explanation behind the A5-sized cardboard boxes I see appearing in lots of pigeonholes on a Friday? Is it worth it? Good?

    Footlong- they are if you stick to the actually concept and are not greedy cows like BB and I and eat the whole lot in one go- they are overpriced, you could probably get the same for much less in Holland and Barret or similar- its nice and convient though which is why I keep doing it. I have free codes for a free box somewhere if you want one?

    BB- No! I have not heard of a festive one yet- maybe next week?

    FTLOMB - I like that I don't need to make lunch on a Friday as this will fill me up. Although the idea is that you graze on it when you feel the need to snack. Today I had these boxes - Clicky

    I let Graze choose my boxes but you can rate boxes or 'bin' them to make sure you get certain boxes more than others. I've 'binned' everything containing olives. Yuck.

    *Mini* - You get a snowman that you pop out and put together.. Pointless, but appeals to the kid in me. Also, they've sent two x 2 box gift vouchers to give to two friends, which is pretty good as I shared last weeks with my bestie over the weekend so I'll give her one of the vouchers.

    Voucher code: NM4TYNLD - You'll get a free box with this. Be aware you do have to enter your bank details, but this is because you're essentially setting up a weekly/fortnightly/whatever thingy, but you can cancel once you've received your free box if you decide against.
