    I didn't commit to doing an hour of anything, because that way lies an entire evening flat on my back, and not in a Valli type way.;)

    But, I did turn the damsons that Mr LW came home with the other day into a fruit crumble (Hel's teeth, those things take an age to get the stones out of!!), also tidied a food cupboard (having used up the last of a bag of oats for said crumble), did a pile of washing up.... and decluttered a dose of Oramorph.:D

  • OK I have a project.
    So I need to tidy up/clutter clear/re-arrange a space downstairs so I can set up the lap-top.
    Trouble is as soon as you move something from A to B you have to sort B to make space there - this could be a longer job than I thought :rotfl:
    So then the stuff from B has to go to C, but of course that means re-arranging C.
    Why did I ever start this????????????

    Can a clever flylady help me with some maths...

    My digital scale has broken (DS1 'played' with it) and is weighing a half ounce box of raisins as 1 1/4 ounces. So, assuming 1oz=2 1/2oz on my scale, if I need 8oz of something for a recipe I should times that by 2 1/2 so weigh out 20oz by my scale? I dont think the recipe needs to be terribly accurate, it's twinks not souffle or anything lol
