    In the spririt of MSE, I decided to buy ASDA's own cheese sauce instead of the Bisto which I can't find in my ASDA. OMG - the smell of it was awful, smelled like farts the day after sprouts or something. Has put me right off cheese sauce - don't know if it was cos it was ASDA's own or cos im pg!
    My dad just turned 50 and won't be impressed at being a grandad as it's not cool! My grand-dad will be great grandad at 76, he will love it!

    AF you can add sugar or honey but I don't, I also leave the bag in while I drink it but I'm a fruit tea drinker usually :D some people would find the taste too strong if they did that

    just going to put the kettle on in a sec and give it a try. i will try it without anything in it to start and leave the bag in and see how i go

    Gonna be a moron now - it's raspberry leaf tea yeah? So, does it taste like raspberry's? I've never eaten a raspberry leaf before.

    I quite like fruit teas but some need a bit of sweetner.

    just keep having a little sip until it tastes right then you can whip the bag out if u need to :D

    oh I've just remembered that my mum's doc told her that the awful cold/flu that went round before Christmas came from Australia!! I hope it wasn't your family sending germs in the post :rotfl:

    If you get the one with the brand name "health and heather" it also has actual raspberry, apple and a couple of other stuff to make it nice n fruity, you can get it just the leaves but I've heard that that tastes like grass *yuk*

    hmph!!! we always get the blame :rotfl: :rotfl:

    though, the link you posted about raspberry tea said the study took place in Sydney (not that i am fan of Sydney, in fact anything but, but it's still Oz)

    Glamazon, I bought a ginormous pot of Asda chicken gravy because I like the tesco version and thought the Asda on would probably taste the same... It's rank! Even hubby doesn't like it and he'll eat anything... (Even pot noodles ;))

    I managed about 20mins sleep... Why is it, when I go for a nap someone rings up? And when I get rid of them and finally drop off, I get wierd dreams... Then hubby starts texting?! Feeling pretty awful now... Plus I ate too much at lunch and feel a bit sicky... And Aimee's friend is not at school again today so I don't get a lift down... Hopefully another friend there will offer me a lift back...

    Suppose I better get moving if I want to get there in time!
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    as soon as she's old enough personally feed her the pill to make sure it doesn't :rotfl:I'm sure you've taught her well enough to not coppy mummy's mistakes :) not that she's a mistake! but u kno wat i mean - I hope!

    My daughters learnt by my mistakes, lectured enough on how hard life is when you are young with kids. Talked about all contraception and never to rely on just one. Now 19 and 20,good jobs and oodles of common sense.
    Too many children, too little time!!!
