won't someone please save my stuffing?
I was planning on trying a few stuffing recipes ready for christmas so I baked a loaf of bread. My yeasts a little out of date. It was fine last week when I made a loaf by hand but this was a bread machine loaf, and I've made a bread-scented door stop. Can I use it anyway, or is just fit for the bin?
Peanut butter stored in the fridge?? Yes or No

Washing up bowl...yay nor nay?

using fabric dye to get rid of bleach marks
I'm wondering if anyone has experience of fixing fabric that has been accidentally bleached? I've managed to get bleach marks on one of my favourite skirts :( and am now wondering if it would be possible to dye the skirt a darker colour so that the bleach marks don't show. Would the pale bleached patches still look lighter…
Which food processor please? ... confused
Help please, you cooks. I’m considering some sort of food processor, to sit on worktop all the time, not too big and easyish to clean and swop over discs. I don’t want to pay a fortune, but I do like sturdy items that fit together well and last where the motor isn’t straining and is large enough for the job. Will be used…

taking milk to work
What does everyone use to take milk into work for making tea? Ideally I want something just for the day I can keep on my desk, and ideally disposable. I don't like the thought of re-using milk containers. I keep tea bags in my desk. There is a fridge but this is long walk from my desk so not practical to keep going there…

Slow Cooker Liners
Hi Has anybody used slow cooker liners ? Are they any good ? My slow cooker is a big 6.5 litre slow cooker so is it a case of one size fits all ? We're currently between kitchens so we're washing up in the bathroom sink & using the bath as a drainer so I'm looking for ways I can find to reduce washing up. Cheers Jen
