    I've been up to my elbows in pumpkin...but so far so good! If the mini pumpkin pies turn out, I shall do a load!

    it is, she is a very talented (and lovely) lady.

    I can definitely see me having another piece done by her at some point in the future.

    I have to confess.......one of those bargain boxes of chocolates I bought yesterday has kind of 'fallen open'..........:rotfl:

    I blame my OH. I bought him a chocolate birthday cake and he hasn't had any yet - I can't sneak a slice when it hasn't even been started!

    Bunny I would love your recipe for pumpkin pie:D I alway just end up throwing the flesh out:rolleyes:

    Had some really tart apples in the fruitbowl that no one would eat so I have made a lovely apple crumble with them. I have had a tiny portion for quality control purposes, the kids actually said that it was lush.........praise indeed.

    I am about to do the washing up pile and then the ironing so I dont get stressed through the week when I cant find anything to wear in the wardrobe.

    I think I have turned sensible:eek: ............it wont last:rotfl:

    BB Charlies pic is amazing:T
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    The first time I ever spoke to bunny 'properly' was when she PM'd me her pumpkin pie recipe a couple of years ago.

    The rest, as they say, is history!! :rotfl:
