    Hi Wssla00,
    The moment I mentioned rhubarb ice cream but husbands attentions instantly left the speedway on the tv as he adores rhubarb, so I am afraid you are going to have to post the rhubarb icecream to:rotfl:

    Sorry if my typing is a bit iffy tonight, only its so humid here which makes my MS play up.

    Right I am tightening up the purse strings big time. £130 for the month please I was a disaster in July :( I will be meal planning for the whole month. Lots of my veg hasn't grown but I will be trying the salad again, and my sppuds should come up this month, I am determined as school uniform has cost me a bomb, and DS1 will have his residential trip this year.
