Bit random but do any of you make your own burgers? do you think adding an egg yolk is beneficial? (I'm thinking of making mini burgers for the boys and I already have grown up sized ones and plenty mince)
I wrote out everything that is in my freezers today so need to work out what I can make with it all, lots of bits of things that aren't enough to make a meal for all 4 of us and the boys tend to not eat as much if they have different.0 -

For the smaller sized, then yes if you have eggs. It helps bind it all together so they don't break up as they cook. But squeezing and wrapping in clingfilm then popping in the fridge will work if you dont have eggs.0 -
Michelle - sorry I did see your reply and forgot to respond. We can only bid on 3 properties each round (every two weeks) and you can swap and change your bids as much as you want but when the bidding closes then your last 3 bids stand. Anyhoo the only weeks we haven't bid on 3 properties have been when there weren't enough suitable ie 8th floor or no pets.
Cafc - it could be but have drunk coffee and tea that way for years and this is the first time I've suffered, I know a few years back I drank liars of coffee and would have major crashes! The headaches aren't helped as oh and fur ball don't know the meaning of quiet. Oh and I take vitamins too which is why I think it's probably my eyes but we'll see! Mil thinks it could be blood pressure eek.
Kindof - yeay for E getting back on track.

Em, :eek: at your mum leaving you at home. I lived with my nan for as long as i can remember until she died when i was 14
Som, i usually (gently) hit Lily on the forehead with the clean nappy and she smiles and takes it to play with and hit herself with. But then again, Lily is odd.
Tia, :rotfl: !
Made a GP appointment for me & Lily. Lily because she was sick lots again after her milk and although there is no set pattern its happeneing alot again.
And me because im having stupidly long cycles and my womb hurts
Me and DH are testing something this week.
He thinks that, since we spend about £40 on shopping and then around another £30 in the co-op. We should just buy our meals daily from the shops and it will be cheaper/same price.
So i agreed we will do it for one week and keep all our reciepts to add it up so i can prove we spend more by daily shopping
Also, he's still adament that Lily shouldn't do BLW. He thinks its a fad and babies are meant to have puree's. And that she'll choke and die if we give her real food :rollseyes:
Didn't get a chance to go the the library for a BLW book as Lily was crying loads.0 -
Got an interview tomorrow at 6pm, for a waitress in a hotel. I don't even know the hours or anything :rotfl: I just know it's evening work.0

Question:
A member on ebay msg'd me asking if i would post to bulgaria.
I dont want to, so how do i say no in a nice way? And do i have to post if i say no but they still bid?
I do have my settings to exclude all locations.
I would ask on the ebay board, but i prefer you lot0 -
EA, I didn't know you were doing BLW, I thought you were simply introducing finger foods which is the natural progression from purrees when weaning a baby, and has been for decades.
ALso, a simple message just saying no, sorry, I don't. will suffice for the ebay buyer.
And also, once food is introduced occasionally they can start being sick after too much milk, when they say don't limit milk they are talking crap coz usually after a solid feed and 9oz milk there will be vomit. Hope thats all it is.0 -
EA - tell F that BLW has been around for like forever - does his think neolithic man steamed and pureed
Thanks Tia its not for tonight so I will have eggs can I get away with using a whole egg? otherwise I shall be forced to make myself an omelette or something to bung the white in with
off to le supermarche toodle oo0 -
Why not EA? Bulgaria's not so bad, although if you're worried you could say that to comply with Paypal rules you'd need to send by Fedex - the shipping cost will put them offOrganised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
