debsthe1 - it'll be homemade as you can only get plain quark - but overnight it takes on any flavour you put into it. Just one or two crushed cloves per half a tub is what I do. It can also be made to make light mayo go further (just syn the amount you put in and the rest of the tub is free! :j)0

Hi SC - dont think Im checking up on you but I used Knorr veg sc the other day and they were 1.5 syns:eek: so thought I'd check that chicken were the same (all the little syns add up don't they:rotfl: )
Zav
Thanks Zav, yes they do! I don't use stock cubes all that much (use Marmite in hot water so it's free - good thing it doesn't taste of marmite when its cooked!) so all help is welcome!

P00 - you are right. One 'packet' Sugar free jelly (2 syns) made into four portions is 0.5 syns each.0

I have a question about Fry Lite please
I dont know if its my frying pans but the Frylite seems to burn on and eggs etc stick. Is this normal?
I ended up getting some of those non stick liners and lining the frying pans and now dont use Frylite much but I was just wondering if it was something to do with me.

afternoon all.
I have really enjoyed spending my syns today in a very decadent way!! I had 1 cherry thorntons chocolate (3 syns) and a bag of mini creme eggs, which was 2.5 syns each, or 12.5 for the bag. 0.5 syns for the day over, I know, but I didn't have many yesterday, so I'm letting myself off
I knew I wouldn't be able to resist something at the petrol station, but at least I waited until I got home rather than shovelling it all in my mouth whilst driving and then looking at the empty packet and thinking - where did that go?!

No, doesn't sound normal - though I bought a cheapo frying pan from Ikea (£1.29) and its the best I've EVER used - nowt sticks to it!

Hi just back form WI and caught up from over the weekend. Ive been doing EE all week. I had a few hic ups at the beginning but tried to make up for it by having less syns at the end. Anyway I have lost 6 lb :j:j that takes me to 9lb away from target.
