    Rusty I bet your cake tastes divine. I have a recipe for a Chocolate Beetroot Cake, its gorgeous. The only trouble is when you blitz the cooked beetroot it looks like somthing out of a horror movie!!!:eek: It must be good, I gave a piece to James Martin..... oooooooo, ahhhh.... sorry just drooling.... and he liked it. I did notice your recipe is one of his too, cola and chocolate are his favourites along with maccy dees:eek::eek:

    Better go now, we are going to the library and to see the oldies:( I want to craft.....

    Hello again

    *more hugs to anyone that needs them*

    Popped on to email someone back (wish I had an iphone like OH that could send emails easily lol) and couldn't help popping in

    Ooh that cake looks gorgeous Rusty!

    Did I say finally got Barclays to refund the £44 from June/July? Was asked after many phone calls between India and here (*sigh*) to go in tomorrow and I phoned up today and said I really can't go in I'm finding it hard enough pottering in house atm and she said oh..I can refund it while you're on the phone....

    :rotfl:

    After all this time *finally* kids aren't going to get eaten this weekend. if my Ebay stuff doesn't selll maybe we'll eat them next weekend or send 'em down't pit...

    Thanks CG for your offer of eating yours but I'll stick to mine first...less noise :rotfl: .. then again mine are skinny and scrawny do any of yours ahve more meat on? :j

    Most of my sizzix stuff at least has bids so yeay for that.. doodle with dazzle alpha still to get a bid but who knows...it's at least got watchers... can't even reduce the start price for some reason....

    Goodness have sat here ages trying to write this so people can understand it..hopefully it's a lot less garbled now :rotfl: oh I love my body sometimes, I does....

    Ooh Flourgirl I have a robo *smiles sweetly* lol... I have some things on a cd too but haven't used them yet I'll have to dig em out

    *hugs* to you all you're brill..hope this made sense

    Hello all, busy day today, been to Asda (no cheapie notepads :(), Homebase and Dunn Elm, Got DS2's christmas present - a bright red DSi and lots of other stuff.

    Sorry to hear you can't have your op Wifey, what a pain xxx

    Rusty, how can you not have even had a nibble of the cake, wouldn't last 5 minutes in this house ;)

    DTB, huge good luck with your craft session :). In answer to your question, why do you do it is simple, cos no other b*gger will and you are too nice :p. I need to sort something simple for preschool and primary school to make quickly. I am thinking calendars of some sort but that's as far as I've got.

    Flourgirl, I love your little boxes :D. I think you have already mailed me the box template but I can't seem to find it, could I have it again please, thank you xxx

    Off to the school quiz night tonight, I so don't feel like it but have organised a team so need to turn up. Have my bottle of wine and chocs at the ready ;)

    Spending the weekend gutting the living toom as we are having wood floor laid on Tues/Wed next week :j Not looking forward to the sorting out but really looking forward to the floor being replaced :D

    Hope everyone's ok, hugs and choc bars to everyone xxx
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:
