    Hello all you [strike]mad[/strike] lovely people....

    Now I'm new to all this "flying" lark, and whilst I do keep a really tidy house I really do need some routine to how I go about it rather than a "oh my god look at the state of it, I must clean the entire thing in one day" sort of thing I do currently.

    So if I may - I'd like to join....although can someone please explain the HHI and HHC thingies I've seen mentioned?

    :T Keep up the good work

    Hi Pooky

    HHI is Half Hour Ironing

    HHC is Half Hour Challenge/Cleaning - spend half and hour doing as much as possible and report back!

    Pigpen explains most things on the the first post.

    Well done pigpen for finishing all of your ironing. The cake I made is still cooling, and I'm watchin the hotel inspector undercover. OH has just left to go to his shooting club. Will do the icing in a bit, then make the salad for dinner.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    OMG I'm the biggest doughnut ever!! I've just found the grated carrot in the fridge - looks like it's not a carrot cake then - more like a cinnamon and orange one! Will have to put the carrot in the salad tonight! I can't believe I did that!!!

  • Hello flyladies,

    I haven't posted yet today but I have read some of the thread. Vanilla - great news about your dog. He looks very sad! Hope he recovers well.

    pigpen - well done on the ironing! Your sister should be very grateful to you. All this work for her party. What a good sister you are!!!

    Just fed two French students and they tried parsnips for the first time ever. They don't eat them in France and they loved them!

    i've given up on the rest of my list cos my parents are coming on thursday overnight so i'll need to hoover round etc on wed night anyway. I'm working tomorrow and tues nights so i'm determined to enjoy tonight and relax. i did do my tesco order though, and found a £10 off code. I spent almost £100 which will do us the best part of 3 weeks, i should've probably split it into 2 orders to get more money off - is that what you do pigpen?

    dinner of fishfingers, waffles and beans (our sunday slob meal) in the oven and then i want to watch the gladiators final. :D and chill for the evening.
