  • alias, yay on being a Perfect 10 shade 6.5 Light cool brown!! Sounds nice. Is it just me with the grey highlights now?! :o
    Well done on the lb lost. :D
    And stop sulking!! Are you a good sulker? My hubby can sulk for Scotland (he is Scottish)!! :rotfl: Is it something in the Clyde?! :rotfl:
    I have to admit sometimes I look at a skirt or a pair of jeans & think god they're huge & then they end up being too small for me!! :eek:
    But I don't sulk. Ok, maybe just a little bit. :rotfl:

    Mercy - i completely understand, of course. I can replace the list with a link to yours. I'll do it right now. I'm really very sorry - I didnt mean to be unthinking and cause offence.

    Sx


    Ta chuck, it all got a bit exciting there, new thread n'all :) Love the resources on page one, will make things much easier to keep track of.

    Shelby, not sure what's going on there, will check it out and put right if poss.

    Will the old thread be allowed to drift gently down the pages or will it be closed? I could repost list on this thread soon, with glitches fixed and linky still on page 1. wouldn't want to lose it so soon after getting it back :rotfl:

    Actually no...I dont really sulk. I just said that for dramatic effect. :D I was a little down in the dumps for a short while but I'm ok again now. Doesn't matter what size she is or what size I am........as long as I get thin enough by the Summer to flaunt it, big style.:rotfl:

  • It's official - Mercy's Mexican Fudge is bloomin lovely!! :j
    Sat here feeling very full & contented. :D Had it warm with salad leaves & a blob of coleslaw.
    I put one red & one green chilli in - used an electric chopping thingy so the seeds went in too. Really yummy, like the inside of a quiche, which is great for me as I used to always leave the pastry if I had quiche anyway.
    Mercy, is 8oz of double cream 8 fluid oz? Wasn't sure & don't know what a cup measurement is (I'm an amateur!!) so just put in what I thought was enough, which I think was about 8 fluid oz anyway. :o
    Thanks again chuck. :D

    glad you like it! 8oz I read as 8flozzies or 200ml. I like the way the mozzarella makes a kind of 'pastry' base, it keeps together well too. Made one sunday for nibbles in the week. Put 6 thin green chillis and 1 big red one, including seeds - I love chillis! Think mazzers tried it with thin sliced tiny tomato, I've also tried v thin sliced spring onion and pepperami. Both nice but prefer chilli 1. :rotfl:

    I've been having it for brekkie with a sausage. :)

    Oh so when told not to look I just have to look!! WOW that is high and seeing as my serving is never an average one I won't be tempted with the offer in co-op. Thanks for finding that link Mercy. X

    With regards to the recipe list I wonder if anyone is having the problem as me. At lot of the recipes that I click through to don't show the recipe or am I just going mad.

    As an example I have just tried@-

    I've read the whole page from top to bottom and can't find any of the recipes that its referring to. I found this previously on others also but as no one else has mentioned it just wondered if its my computer behaving odd?????


    Yup, i noticed that a while ago when searching for the bhajis, i should've said something then.

    I'm afraid to make it again cos i want it all in one go:rotfl:
    next time (later on) gonna use chillies, tomato and spring onion, oh and some of the salami i gotta use up. :D

    Mercy did you work out the carbs in the lasagne??
    Had some earlier and is really good substitute, think i'll cut into three servings next time tho.

    Went H&B today and forgot the coconut for the muffins:mad:
    500g of Neals yard linseeds half price £1.32 tho and theyre the 0.7g ones so got a few of them, also picked up their multi vit and minerals without iron, abc plus senior which is half price also (4.29) will look in simply supplements later to compare.

    Am having a lovely meaty flax bread sarnie later with salad and mayo, mmm cant wait.
    Mercy how bout 'inventing' some crisps substitutes :D have tried scratchings and dont mind the hard pieces but the mushy bits are revolting.
