mazzers, that is blatant cat-napping - I would be soooo angry with her!! I know her story tugs at your heart-strings but it's still not fair to effectively take someone else's cat/s. Hope you get it resolved.

Well I had garlic for tea tonight.

I used far too many cloves of garlic when I stuffed the chicken breasts. I had 2 BIG spoonfuls of cream cheese in a bowl ready to go in the chicken and had no idea how many cloves to use. I used 3 biggies. For future use....that was far too many.

I can now kill a man at a hundred paces just by breathing gently on him. :rotfl:

Luckily I had some plain chicken cooking at the same time so the rest of the family were spared.

I just dont cook. :wall:

Hiya!

Mazzers - Stealing your cat is so wrong. I'd go mental. There are 2 ways I'd approach that.

1- if she already has one of them hooked ask her to sign something that says she takes full responsability for vetinary fees.

2- I'd burst into tears and plead that she doesn't tempt your other one away. State how much your son would miss it and that you are all heartbroken. Go so far as to beg and snot.

If neither of them worked I'd go to the local papers. Maybe mentioning this to her first.

It would be best to have a witness at each attempt. A family friend who can tell the paper just what she says. (or a journalist)

Well that's the nice way of dealing with it. Won't tell you quite what I'd be tempted to do. (involves plackards and notices around the area.)

What a cow.

Alias - I noticed that Primark do an interesting line in baby dolls. Always flattering as they 'skim over'

Garlic is a tricky beast, be prepared to have some 'come out of your skin' tomorrow. It does that with me. I wear a certain amount of body spray and a look of indifference

It has health benefits so don't fret over much.

Maybe you didn't cook, but you do now. Learn as you go. Nothing is wasted when we learn from it

Big love my garlicky mate!

sounds about right to me........

i guess it depends on what you're used to

keep going though - you'll be amazed at how quickly you'll pick it up

Mercy, I made your mexican fudge....... OMG it's gorgeous:D .
The only problem is, I've been picking at it all day and it's all gone:o .


By the way. enjoy your cross trainer mazzers. I bought one off ebay (for £10:D ) and I'm using it 3 x a week. At first, I could barely do 10 minutes. I'm now doing 30mins non stop and covering 10k. I've only been doing it for about a month so feel I've come on quite well (especially as I've never exercised in my life:rolleyes: ).

OMG! Hope you didn't use too many chillis I can't manage above a quarter as it's so filling. Still there's worse you could have been snacking on, v low carb

Glad you like it, seems to be a hit !

Well done on the cross training, I must do more excercise. I know it all in theory - how you quickly get so much better etc, just need to actually DO it

So much for being in the zone - the supermarket got me

I went straight from work to see my friend and her new born baby girl ( who was beautiful btw) and popped into Waitrose (that bloody place) came out with tortilla chis and dips to make nachos, I ate them but didn't even enjoy so at least its not the high carb slippery slope, I feel like a bulimic and want to put my finger down my throat I feel so yucky (no offence meant to people with eating disorders just trying to explain feelings!)

The though of all that garlic doesn't help.... wish hadn't read
