Zippy One of the dogs is a Labrador so in other words is a canine dustbin :rotfl::rotfl: I had to retrieve one of DD's epilepsy tablets from her this morning as she pounced as soon as she saw DD drop it :eek::eek::eek: Luckily I saw it happen as even though they're both insured it could have been deadly for her.
Edited to add: Bargainbird Cloves are in with the herbs & spices usually.0 -

Last Night I noticed Homemade Kirsty had some dried whole oranges that reminded me about this but before I could start slicing, OH had peeled a couple & was eating them... so I joined in
Now I must find some more bargain oranges!I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.0 -
Chatsworth House had whole dried lemons on some of their christmas trees. I have three drying in the airing cupboard suspended from the shelves in mesh bags so am hoping they'll turn out ok.0

These I saw in Fortnums ,three small slices in a net bag along with a small stick of cinnamon priced at £8.00.Needless to say I didn't buy any but did mine at home on kitchen top on the top of a radiator. Cost the price of a couple of oranges and some kitchen roll about 60p
I'm glad I found this thread as I also want to know how these are made, so I can tell my sister who is enchanted by them.
I was in Fortnum and Mason yesterday with her, who has come to the UK to visit me for a few days. We bought a few things including a dried orange and cinnamon wreath. £47 for three items!:eek: My mum gave her/us money to spend though.Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.0 -
Thank you every one:beer:...I felt the same about putting the oven on for all that time so I'll stick with the airing cupboard...0
