hmmm, the problem with the domestic goddess bit, is the size of the hips! If I don't nibble on everything I should be able to fill a drawer in the freezer!

I used the recipe that came with the breadmaker. I've adapted it slightly by adding orange juice to the water, finely grated orange zest and vanilla sugar, 'tis yum! This is as close as I've got to the brioche I had in France.

By the way, I only do the dough in the breadmaker, I shaped it into individual buns.

daily update

I tried to withdraw my winnings from one of the scratch cards this morning, but it would appear I used my old bank account to set it up and the card has now expired - botherations!!! I now have to either get a letter from the bank to say I still have an account there or get a new card, I think I will do the latter. The account is only dormant and it may be useful to have two bank accounts, especially if I can withdraw money into one of them...:T

I paid another £10 off the card this morning, probably the last payment until nearer payday, I don't want to leave myself too short.

Went mad and cleared out the pending basket aka the paper dumping ground! Shredded or filed the contents. Set up a new folder for my pension, don't understand any of it, but at least all the documentation is in one place now.

Been baking most the day, the freezer will be full of goodies, which will save money in the future. I've got a huge vegetable chilli in the slow cooker, which I will have with rice, put one portion in the fridge and freeze the rest of that too.

Me too Fay, over the moon with happiness, if you judge my curves

Seems a waste of a day if I don't do something and the kitchen has to be used, there's a rather large loan I took out to to get it....

Once at the docs for a checkup and they decided I was an 'apple' shape. Think Bramleys and that's me!
