Oh dear I was dreading this type of post as it means I have to go out and buy some custard powder :eek: as I don't have any in as we usually have value custard which we just love

Thanks :rotfl:


PS Thanks to angelnikki for the coconut cake recipe as I was just wondering what to do with some I found lurking in my bread flour cupboard

:rotfl: My two both signed loads, there are some pictures of them here when they were younger. The boy with blond hair and the girl are mine. Sorry proud Mummy moment.

My DS has done stage 1 twice - he's not signing though (started at 6 months, now 13.5). I do sign to him and speak with it, but he just smiles!
:rolleyes:

That sounds like something my DH would say, when I first made Twinks hob nobs he came home for lunch and took back over half of them to show off to his work mates!!

Well tomorrow is going to be my first NSD so I will get some powder on friday!

GOOD EVENING FOLKS

I know I said earlier that It was an NSD today well its not,, I had to go to Mt T's for prescription and all I spent was 28p for soda crystals.only as there were no puff pastry and customer services said they were not doing them anymore .... but then we went to MrA's and I got whoopsied bread rolls and cat litter and sachets for the old yin and some cat milk just to see if I could tempt him to eat or drink

so will update siggie later

Mmmmm. Just made the lemon curd ice cream from the "show Jamie how to cook on a budget" thread and it is gorgeous. I see a trip to Mr T's to clear the shelves of 20p lemon curd tomorrow!! :rotfl: Also made a loaf of bread for OH's sandwiches tomorrow and got a savoury rice simmering away for my lunch, what a busy little bee I've been since I got home from work

Just got back from asda and checked my reciept and noticed that they've overcharged me 88p for a pack of potatoes. Really cross now:mad: . The shelf label said £1 that's why I chose them. V annoyed now!!

There is an Asda misprice thread somewhere on the boards. I think they give you a £2 voucher per item that they've overcharged you for so in actual fact they've done you a favour (unless Asda is really out of your way). :T You can treat yourself to some chocolate.
