The Glitterpot have it for £3.49 (I think P&P is £1). Not a lot less, if I see it any cheaper on my travels I'll let you know.

Oooh Tired Mom

I'm really glad you enjoyed it!!

I wasn't sure at first if I would like sweet potatoes, but they're really very tasty in this soup. I first had it in a restaurant when I went for a meal, and went searching for a recipe. I couldn't believe it tasted as good as the restaurant one!

Mary-Op, I'm sure it will taste lovely if you make it - I'm not that good in the kitchen either, but if I see a really tasty recipe with ingredients that are easy to get a hold of, I'll try it.

I like things that can just be put in the oven and left, or one pot dishes - lol.

Hope all you other ladies who are going to try it, enjoy it too!

I can vouch it is easy and also very tasty. The only thing I had in the fridge of any worth was a pack of bacon and in the veg basket a very old punnet of sweet potatoes which I have now turned into the above soup for tea tonight which I will serve with garlic bread from the freezer. Thank you so much Sally it beats beans on toast!

Thankyou all so much for all of your kindness.

Today my postie was almost hospitalised with a bad back, he delivered 2 beautiful cards on thursday, 5 on Friday and today I have had 10, I am sorry I can't remember who they are all off but OH is going to take photos of them all so I can post them on my blog, you really are all so sweet, I cried like a right baby whilst opening them!!!

I have just about caught up but Ihaven't even attempted blogs, nor have I managed to click thanks on any posts. I haven't really moved off the sofa and I am completely high on drugs.

Thankyou to whoever sent me the spendy elves they had fun buying bildmarna stamps and some basic grey papers and some more charms, then they went to dies to die for and bought me another bildmarna stamp. But last night then bought OH a new computer game so he will be happy!!

Off to sleep again now, sorry if I am being ignorant but I just can't manage much at the minute.

Hugs to those who needs then and congrats to those who have won things. xxxxx

Can anyone answer me? I did ask last week, but didn't see a reply..... I've got some unmounted red rubber stamps, that come with grey foam - do I use them the same as my clear stamps and store them on acrylic sheets or do I have to do something else? I've tried googling, but get conflicting amswers. Don't want to use them and then ruin them doing the wrong thing IYSWIM. TIA

Dragonllew - the blue and orangey one is K and Co Hopskotch Boy - it's only about £3 normally. The other is Crafts House Cupcake s- a really nice pearlescent paper pad. I know where to go when I want a patterned paper fix - they had loads off 6 by 6 pads for £3-£4.
