    If you're using a PC you can just use the 'Print Screen' button and then paste the print... (I thought Valli knew how her PC worked too...:p)

    If you're using a Mac, go into apps/utilities & open Grab. Hopefully it will be self-explanatory from there.

    Your PC/Mac OS help menu is always handy for this kind of thing ;)

    Press the "Prt Screen" button. This puts what's on your screen onto the clipboard. You can then paste into a word document, and print multiple copies :D

    Valli, you need "Overly Chatty" in your sig :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    That's because you were too busy teaching Valli to cook while she was too busy being chatty to search for recipes OR find out how her PC works :p
