Its always like that at the school. Apparently he ate too much tuna when he was on school dinners and blew the budget. I mean why complain about that, yet they serve chocalte everyday for desert :think:

Its freezing here, the sun has disappeared and the cold is here to stay (i hope not) lol

Okay weezl, is the saag aloo recipe you will be using for planner 3? i em got it off you blog.


Saag Aloo
Makes 12 servings
1 kg potatoes, – 29p, chop into ½ inch dice
1 large 575g tin spinach- 77p, drained, keep the liquid
500g chopped onions- 40p
Dessertspoon Cumin,
3 cloves garlic, 6p, chopped, crushed or grated
½ teaspoon chilli,
fresh coriander, 5p, I used a tenth of a 50p bunch
salt
100ml veg oil – 9p
Start with a large pan, you’re going to make 12 portions of curry! Fry cumin and garlic and chilli in oil for a minute, then add the onions til coated and translucent, a few mins. Stir the cubes of potato in until coated, then add the spinach. Reduce heat, and simmer until the potato has cooked through, testing with a knife every 5 mins ish. When the curry gets too dry, add some of the reserved spinach liquid.

don't rush, weezl, you spend time with your little ones xxx

It was just to save you looking on your blog for the recipe, so you didn't have too. Daft eh?

Arty, so sorry to hear about the mean woman. She's probably just jealous of your lovely Amelia Pond hair. (Please be careful with your pale skin in the sun though).

All this talk of pumpkins reminds me of a pumpkin patch I visited in Colorado a couple of years ago. There were fields and fields of them, as far as the eye could see...


Or if you didn't want to pick your own, they had thousands that were already cut:


And this was in Texas the previous year - everyone had decorated their houses and gardens ready for Hallowe'en


Sorry, totally off topic, but happy memories.

Well, I'm at work, and he's clearly at a loose end at home.... But yeah, he returned last night :j First flight on that route that flew on schedule, so incredibly fortunate

Hornetgirl, lovin' the pumpkins !
