Hello I'm back for a bit. I'll be going into hospital morning and evening for injections of blood thinner into my bump until ultrasound establishes that clot/clotting risk has gone.

So life goes on...

OOOH.....OW...OW:eek:. Sounds painful to me that does...yikes...

Hope you dont have to have many of them our Weezl:(

errrmm.....and have you thought any further on ISOM's suggestion of moxibustion for the fact that Kester is "breach" the last we heard? Or - has he turned now anyway (hopefully...fingers crossed....)

It was ok C, I was a bit scared, but the first one was fine

I find out on weds if he's still breech and then we can look at turning him. Apparently if you try turning but they've already turned you undo all your hard work!

potty's survey link is now in post #4, the one that gives guidance to the testers. I figured we'll remnd ourselves of the purpose of the feedback and then be able to answer accordingly...

A further chutney I had in mind was a non sweet one, with onions, chilli, garlic, salt and tomatoes. No sugar. 320g each of chopped tomatoes and chopped onion. I'd like it to condense down for quite a while. And the onion to be prefried with the spices and 30ml oil.

It will be served with onion bhajias. More like an authentic old style Indian Ketchup before they became all sweet.

Would anyone like to play around with that idea?

You have to be pretty brave, but I'm sure your inner Delia will emerge!

Would you like an onion Bhajia recipe to go with it, or perhaps the falafels?

A Frugalisation of either of these would be most welcomed

I buy the frozen summer fruits from Aldi, a little goes a long way. Sorry I don't know the prices and I live 20 miles from Aldi so can't check quickly for you. DH is allergic to aubergines so we have none in our meals. We only have puds on Sunday but I try to have some fruit available for breakfast to go on cereals etc.

weezl Just thought I should say that my sons seem to think I have changed my menu plans to suit your plan but they are exactly as I wrote them before I found your thread!

£1.28 rings a bell, but will be going probs tomorrow. Will report back.

I'll have a bash at the new chutney and frugalising the falafels...I have a bag of chickpeas in the cupboard waiting for inspiration.

I have my 'it has to be Marks's' in-laws coming next week and I'd love to dish up an ultra-frugal dish for them! Although I'm not sure they've recovered from my lentil lasagne yet!

falafels for me please - seeing as I have a bowl of chickpeas soaking:)

But am happy to go with the majority vote


oops just found the link to the falafels recipe - I thought you were asking didnt realise you were pointing in the direction of

Just a thought on the Onion Tart. I am going to be making it with cheap parmesan or grano padano - I've had a silly week head wise so have not caught up with all the posts - has anyone costed this or tried it?

Weezl - glad to hear you are allowed home. Good luck with the treatments.

I'm with the falafel camp.
