  • Might as well just use the balsamic vinegar surely? All the Frylight stuff has white fizzy stuff in it that puts me off.

    It's dead easy to make your own yoghurt without spending cash on a yoghurt maker, the nomads have been doing it for centuries :)
    :jThat's 2 stone 9 lbs gone forever:j

    thank you Slimming World!

    I make mine using UHT skimmed milk, powdered skimmed milk and a starter yogurt. I then add sweetner and fruit to flavour it (usually frozen mixed berries). If you want to give it a go let me know and I'll tell you how I do it.

    ooh yes please.....Im due to visit my mum again at the end of the week so im sure the yog maker will still be unopened in its box where its been for the last 12 months lol....may as well come to a good adoptive home :p

    Sorry to hear it was hubbys friend that died Dizzy, how could those others not stop. They must have realised they hit something. So sad.

    I'm all over the place today, son has gone on pre season at his new college and was so very nervous this morning [had no toilet worries there :D]. I worry too, as its a new place & we don't really know what to expect. Sure he'll be fine though. Gets his G.C.S.E results tomorrow too :eek: the stress ......

    Yeah I know its terrible :(
    one woman stopped and has been helping police- but 2 cars didnt, apparently they have just arrested a bloke and charged him with causing death by careless driving....but they havent got the other driver yet.
    They were supposed to play a match on sunday morning about 6 of them as usual....but his dad rang the club to tell them....poor guy.


    Hey I remember when my boy (now 20) had his 1st day at college....I was a bag of nerves :o it was like sending him to nursery school all over again, I was worried he would get on the wrong train and get lost and all sorts :rotfl: kids eh....

    Saturday - a whole tub of ben & jerrys cookie dough!
    Sunday - out for dinner & had polish cheesecake and then a Mcflurry!
    Whoops!

    Just hope i sts at WI tonight!

    Can't believe i will be married this time in 4 days!

    Have decided that my target for christmas is to get to my 6st award! But the week after the wedding i am going to binge on everything i need to to get it out of my system! Then i can start a fresh!

    Good luck everyone for WIs this week x

    if you google "make your own yoghurt" you'll get a hundred different ways. Basically it is blood-heat milk, a spoonful of plain yog ("starter"), keep at a warmish temp, eg airing cupboard or flask, for 6 hrs or so and bobs your uncle :)
