Oooh hiding veges in food is my speciality as my OH hates veggies.

My favourite one is curry, I love korma so I boil veg stock with celery,onion, carrots, fennel, mushrooms, tomatoes, and lentils (I prefer red split lentils) I boil it to within an inch of its life then blend it. It also makes a lovely soup. For the meat/quorn I put tumeric, coriander, cumin, chilli in a pan and fry the spices with a couple of cardamon pods then add the meat, then remove cardomon pods and add sauce/soup mixture. Cook rice, then add a table spoon or two of yoghurt to the curry just before serving...... its also quite good on weightwatchers like 5 or 6 points

I was actually sat on the floor playing with Lily wearing a bikini top, pyjama trousers and a strapless dress thing to cover my tummy :o

DH said we should tell them its not convienient as we are planning an orgy at that time. But they are more than welcome to join in :rotfl:

They always leave our conservetory door open as it's broke and takes a few attempts to close it. I've gone down to the kitchen previously and seen it open! :eek:

Only 11 days until we move (to a real house with a real front door! :j)

:eek: Had you left the door unlocked or did she let herself in with their key without knocking? If it's the former, I suggest you keep the door locked - that's a good idea form a security point of view anyway. If it's the latter, I would definitely complain and tell them they are not to do that - they shouldn't be just letting themselves in like that. I once had the landlord enter my flat when I was out at work. (I could tell because the draught excluders had been moved.) I wrote them a letter saying that either they had been in without permission or that someone unauthorised had a key. I requested that they change the locks because obviously they wouldn't go in without permission so it must be someone else who had somehow got hold of a key. The landlord came round with a box of chocolates (on Baxing Day), apologised profusely and said it wouldn't happen again. (Which it didn't until it had been sold to someone else and an estate agent was managing it.)

I struggle to get Benjamin to eat meat most of the time. On saturday I gave him a hotdog (full of goodness ) and he took the sausage out and ate the bread....then he found out that if he waved the sausage it bent a bit so he waved it around for a while. Had a bite and shouted Mamma, Mamma, Mamma and spat it out for me :rotfl:

He loves fruit and veg and would eat dry bread cobs all day long strange boy! I just keep trying him with everything hoping that he will change his mind at some point.

He eats very little if I spoon feed him (other than chilli, which he bizarrely loves) he has to be able to eat it himself.



Edit - no-one is more shocked than us that our son likes to snack on veg!!! He won't eat crisps and mostly turns his nose up at chocolate - he is just a little strange!!

Could our boys be any more opposite?

S barely eats anything if he feeds himself, and doesnt seem hungry after if he eats hardly anything either? He still hasnt mastered spoon feeding himself unless I put it on the spoon for him (but then I dont trust him with a bowl yet anyway :whistle:
And when he eats a sandwich, he picks out the meat/cheese and puts the bread down his nappy!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

Doesn't seem keen on mince/meat at all, I have no issue with her eating vegetarian as I'd easily eat that way myself but she is still a bit phobic about trying new things, though when she eventually does try something and realises she likes it she gets all excited that she is growing up and shouts out that the food is "MAlicious!"

:rotfl: malicious food!

S has been at the CM's today, as its my week off and I have to pay whether I send him or not! Have done loads of housework, mostly to make the point to OH that when you have a day off to yourself you dont have to just sit on your backside playing xbox, you can do worthwhile things as well... if it had been sunny, I would have been at the beach though :rotfl:

Tell them that you are frightened that someone is going to steal stuff/harm Lilly because they keep coming in without warning/knocking and then leaving the property unsecured when they leave.

We have packed everything that we dont use, i have alot of stuff i wanted to do a car boot sale with. But my dads car got towed and he was my car for the car boot sale

Susan, the front gate was locked. Thats always locked as its our 'front door' and the chemists business entrance.
The conservatory was unlocked, but we always have it unlocked unless we are out.

The guy who does some viewings always rings the doorbell, but the other day it got to much for me having to keep Lily in the front room on her own so i could go all the way down the stairs, out the house and down the allyway to let him in.
So i asked him to let himself in and call upto me to let me know he was here, but only that day.
