Have tried my best to resist temptation but the references to Nanny Ogg's cookbook were too much for me to handle so going to check online for a copy."This site is addictive!"

Nanny Ogg's Cookbook does have a particularly frugal recipe, donated by Lord Vetinari.
If I remember right, it consists of a freshly baked loaf and a flagon of water.:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Seriously though, a lot of the recipes are very good.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

Afternoon everyone
Snoozer - Thanks for your suggestionI bathed her paw and put a dressing on it and put a layer of very strong waterproof tape around it before i set off to MrA`s. When icame back the whole dressing had gone and was nowhere to be found. I have a very strong suspicion that she`s eaten it :eek:
The paw has stopped bleeding now so i shall let some air circulate around it whilst she is asleep and then ask MrSunny to dress it before he takes her out later.
I`ve managed to clean the whole downstairs including the kitchen and put the new cover on the new doggie bed and i can`t get the houndies off it as they love it so much
I am now relaxing waiting for the huge spag bol to finish cooking so that i can eat and then finish getting ready for the pub crawl.
((((HUGS)))) to you MeanMarie
Have a good evening everyone.
SDPlanning on starting the GC again soon0 -
evening all,
Tgif, that seemed to be a very long day, still home now, heating is on, and I have had a long hot bath, so feeling warm and relaxed, OH came in from work frozen, so jumped straight into my bath water very OS ( i had got out first ), and we have decied to be very naughty and order a hot indian to be delivered :j , so no cooking for me tonight, we will have the chilli tomorrow night, so no waste.
Hope all the poorley ones feel better soon, keep warm, tomorrow is meant to be horrible.
3 more days at work before I break for Xmas :T
Enjoy your evenings all :beer:0 -
Evening all,:santa2:
Been really busy again this afternoon, posted all the cards I cant hand deliver, went to Argos to pick up some stuff reserved on line, all front windows cleaned and curtains done, airing cupboard cleared out.:D
Tried out my exchanged birthday present today, and it ground up my Linseeds a treat. I exchanged it a couple of days ago(got permission first of course) took it back to Currys and they were really helpful.
Leftovers heating up nicely, and smelling yummy. Had some apples given me today so will make an apple and mincemeat crumble, love the smell of it cooking, tastes good too.
Sunnyday - hope her paw is ok now,
WBSybil - :grouphug:

Evening everyone
Have just caught up on the last two days so my head is confused now
Thought today would be my last full time day but am doing full time on Monday at least, my house and christmas preparations are suffering!
Not done anything OS wise today and dinner tonight is going to be a kebab whenever OH gets in....but....am intending to do loads tomorrow.
Next weekend is OH's works christmas do and on the Sunday we are doing an early Christmas for his sons and DSD as we are going dahnnnnn souffff for christmas. So tomorrow I am going to prepare and freeze some stuff just incase I accidently drink too much on the Saturday :rotfl:Have one of those 3 bird Aldi roasts and want to do the veg and stuff, we are going to set the table and do the room before we go on the Saturday, we're staying away the night so hopefully when we get back on the Sunday I can just put things together and it will all be great...well thats the theory anyway :rotfl:
Want to make some stuff to take into work as we have decided not to do a secret santa or anything but just take goodies in, so far we have had 2 tins of chocs! think I will do some mince pies and sausage rolls and of course some Twinks as they always go down well there, have done a Jamie and passed the recipe on.:D
DS and DIL to be finally got the keys to their flat today, its been a long haul they put the offer in back in September, and we have an invitation to visit on Boxing Day looking forward to that, will wave at everyone while I'm there Squigley just incase I pass you :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Hugs to all those who need one

evening everyone.
Thankyou for all the good luck wishes.
While I was getting ready for the exam I had a call to say my wonderful and much loved friend Lesley passed away this morning. Even though I was expecting it it was still a shock. By some miracle I pulled myself together and passed my exam so am now a fully qualified EXTEND exercise teacher.
I called to see Lesley's partner on the way home and he said she went very peacefully while he was with her so for that I am very grateful. I know lots of you were praying for her but now she is at peace.Do what you love :happyhear0
