    Mmmmm I love salmon and mackerel. Once I've cleared the freezer (which means stopping buying more stuff, something I'm struggling with), I'm going to get properly sorted with my shopping, get fruit veg, milk etc from tesco, and then do a monthly meat and fish shop from the market.

    So, that's what I'll be doing come, oooh, about 2014...

    You could try making your own yoghurt, it'd be a lot cheaper. Z said on here a while back how to do it and it sounds really easy.

    We should take a trip out to the farmer's market one Sunday Ames, the Otley one is the last Sunday of each month!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Because he knows all is not well. He preaches that we should 'give our donations to the church safe in the knowledge that the church would give it back or help if things go bad'. I think he is scared I will ask for a refund. :D
    Plus we had a few run ins over his attitude when I was churchwarden.

    Is his name Wolsey? ;)

    That'd be great Linda, I go to the Leeds one sometimes but it's really hit and miss whether there's anything there worth getting.

    Claire, that bracelet's lovely.

    Ok, stupid question - if I put some frozen spinach in a sandwich and toast it, will it defrost and be ok or will it go manky and horrible?
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
  • Why on earth would you want a spinach sandwich?

    Only one way to find out Ames! :D
    I would think it'll be ok though.

    stupid vicar....can't you complain to the bishop like they seem to do in Emmerdale every week.

    Am knackered.....why is it when I am getting loads of sleep I am tired......

    I actually stayed awake through the film last book...it was The Book of Eli..and despite the title and write up was very good, kind of a mix of mad max versus.....ermmmm (not sure what it was mixed with...) but the bible played a part in it.

    Then I got up this morning..didn't do my run go had to pick DD2 at 10 and had to do a tax return...have a few more to do today....so maybe won't be around much.

    Am having home made lasagne later with lactose free milk and cheese....:rotfl:
