Does anyone know what I am on about? :rotfl:
Any help with the poem pretty please?

Because as an aunt I’m so thoughtful,
I’ve bought your kids candy by the bag full.
But not to dismiss what it does to the teeth,
I’ve packed them some spares underneath!

Because as an auntie I’m so thoughtful,
I’ve bought your kids some candy by the bag full.
But if their teeth rot and fall out they'll surely be missed...
so I've packed them some spares to save seeing a dentist!

esmer - thanks. I've put that in my favourites and next year (cos I'm a bit fed up with this year at the minute) I'll have a go.:)

I managed to make some snowman soup - not quite as neat as some of yours because the cello bags that I bought had writing on one side meaning I had to construct my own cello cones - they still look pretty good though if you ask me xD

Am now just about to start on my tie blankie for my sisters baby - hope it works haha! First time doing it but have got a tute so! Fingers crossed!

Now I've finished my qualification I can finally get around to doing some homemade bits - have got a blankie to do, a few paintings for various people to finish and then just to collect everything together!

i use the recipe i have for millies cookies
the only thing i do different than when i make them myself is, instead of using vanilla extract, i make vanilla sugar and add that instead of ordinary granulated

i also make my own vanilla extract and bottle it, there are a couple fo people i give it to, but not all

once you make millies cookies you never want anything else!
they are soft & chewy cookies

they have to add butter & an egg

Millie’s cookies

3oz butter;
3oz granulated sugar;
3oz muscovado sugar;
Tsp vanilla extract;
1 egg;
6oz self raising flour;
Pinch salt;
4oz of choc chips or raisins or dried apricots or whatever you want to add.

Method: preheat oven to 180 degrees; mix all ingredients together; put spoonfuls onto trays covered with greaseproof paper; cook for 11 minutes.

i looked at this a few days ago and decided to make some thou normally my cookies go rock hard which i dont like i like them chewy i have made 2 lots now as the 1st lot were eaten up in a snap! now my OH took some towork and they wernt round for long!! they are soooo easy to make thank you!!

Does anyone have any ideas for homemade tags for stuff like homemade fudge, cookies etc. I've got some card, but that's about it!

I have went more for home made boxes, only managed to make labels this year for snowman soup and my cookies in a jar.

I had a quick look, and im too tired now, but did find this, I have seen better ones. where they say. Homemade by me, in nice font. or a little poem attached
