Hey fly ladies & gents!!
I've been away for a week on our jollies, but now it's back to the grindstone and a particularly mucky house. How did that happen when noone's been home?!?!?
Centre Parcs was fabulous, but i don't remember it being as expensive for food etc when we were there last year.
I hope everyone else is well. I don't have the time to read through last week's thread and catch up, but sending out random hugs to anyone who needs them!
I'm a late starter to today cause i went into town and then to my parents house with DD to cadge our lunch. I'll just have to see how i get on...

Well I have been trying to DEclutter. So not technically follwing the days. But am thrilled with myself for clearing out, and sorting two chest of drawers, one yesterday morning, and one this morning.
Been doing othr jobs, around the house, as I noticed them so all in all have been busy.
Washing is on going.
Main job for today, was the chest of drawers so I am happy.
Need a rest now. The arm is complaining.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -
My Ebay listings have finished 1 sold for £10.10 :j and the other 2 didn't sell so they can go in my pile for the charity shop.
I'm off to do a bit more.0 -
Off the top of anyone's head:
Is it possible to "build" a gratin the day before, including adding the milk/cream, then cook it the next day? I plan on par boiling the spuds before hand and drying them thoroughly, if that helps.
Heston Blumenthal says it's OK to cook it then reheat it; to be honest, it may not survive till tomorrow if it were cooked later tonight.
