Oh gawds I have been on the lappy surfing the site since I sat down for lunch..eeeps I have wasted 44 mins doing nothing. Better get my act together as DH will be home in just over an hour and half and I haven't done half of what I wanted to do..let alone make tea..lol

Anyone up for a HHC? If not I am going to do it on my own

Hello well an ok ish day so far apart from DP being in a vile mood since he got up at lunch time. Boys have been for their swim, they're finally getting the idea that I can't afford to do everything as group was going for Chinese after (£10 each but I've got 2 kids!) so they've come home for a cooked breakfast/lunch thing instead.

Have done 2 washerloads, ones trying it's chances on the line other is in the TD. Threw out a bin of crap (trying to reduce bag use) and another of recycling stuff. DW been on, emptied and refill started. Folded all the school tops. Just about to do some of the thing I need to post next week - which is up to about 11 now.

Afternoon listy

Feed animals

ETA - looks lovely Dusty and anything that uses 3lbs of apples up gets my vote. I still have a large tree of cookers to use up.

Shall I post you my Mighty Fine Apple Pie recipe later You pile the apples into the case and they mush down to a delicious American-style pie. I may have to make some myself :T

Going to finish this tea, then more in the garden, then a lie down :rotfl:

Oooh Dusty that apple pie sounds gorgeous, shall print it off to definately make with some apples.
PP would love to see your Mighty Fine Apple Pie receipe. You can never have too many apple pie receipes in my book

Ok in my HHC I managed:

• Wash up my lunch plate
• Put the fish on to simmer, for tonights fish pie
• Put the clean bedding away in the airing cupboard
• Cleared the top of the chest of drawers in the bedroom
• Binbag dance in bedroom
• Threw all the old magazines in the recycling bin
• Decluttered my side of the bed, had books stacked all higgledy piggle. Now it's nice and neat

Just going to finish my cup of tea then do another HHC and whizz round with the hoover. Hopefully then my fish will be cooked

A lovely hour in the garden but now drizzle.

Fence decision made, just need to get it ordered and arranged for some quotes to install it.

Italian Apple cake is delicious, only uses 4 apples though (dessert ones) but I'll share later. I don't even have apple trees but get given windfalls which is great.

pigpen

Load of towels on the line.. doubt they will dry but they are out of the way
WM on again
TD on again
1 more load folded
All the folded stuff sorted into individual heaps to be put away.. DD3 has loads of clean pants!
DS2 vacuuming middle room.. he does a rubbish job and it is a pig of a carpet to clean but he is doing something!

OH still at tesco.. he couldn't find the evaporated milk..

Off to finish filling my binbag and see what else I can charity shop

MrsChaos

In between sitting down and steaming my head again, I've cleaned the top of the fridge, washed and put away the trays which live there, washed slow cooker pan and pressure cooker pan. Quick scrub around the sink. Put small turkey joint in oven. Cleaned hob and two frying pans. Removed very old bananas and wiped worktop where they'd been. :eek: Having a little rest now and will then get on with tea. DH has a meeting at the club just after 6, so he wants to eat early. Doing mash, gravy and some veg to go with the turkey. Oh, I've transferred washing from WM to TD and put a towel wash on.
See you all later. I'm looking forward to that cake recipe, as I've got some oldish eating apples left.
