43. Go 30 Days Without Eating Take-Away

As all we seemed to do when we were on safari was eat, I decided that this would be a good task to work on when we came back from South Africa.

We don't actually eat many take-aways anyway, maybe once a week but I think that before Christmas the number was creeping up as we were both very busy with work.  It's so easy to just think 'stuff it, can't be bothered to cook' order something.  Especially now that you can paid by card, I don't even need to think about if I have cash or not.  And I can order over the internet so no problems with them not understanding my limited Dutch.

Yesterday was our last day of the 30 days and it really wasn't a problem to not have take-away.  As long as we were organised and actually thought about dinner before dinner time.

So I think that we'll celebrate completing this task by ordering sushi for dinner tonight!  The only thing I've missed having is sushi - we could make our own but I'm never organised enough to go to the proper fishmonger for very fresh fish so it's much easier to order.
