ss - i forgot to say i'd like to meet the ss-hairy builder when she's in Edinburgh

Sami_Bee

Maz - I have a Braun thermoscan ear thermometer, its the same as a lot of doctors/hospitals use (in fact the MW used mine when I was in labour with Ed because the batteries died in hers!) It was about £35 but I use it loads because I always have cold hands the boys always feel hot to me! I think its this one http://www.amazon.co.uk/Braun-4520-Thermoscan-Thermometer-66022780/dp/B0001D0LMS
I don't change the cover for every use tho, there really isn't any need if you've got clean ears

:Tcongrats r.mac!! I'm happy someone managed to win on that thing I think its totally acceptable for you to 'return' the scales for an exchange without receipt :cool: Its what I'd do!

We had a CFR tea last night, yum yum! Butternut Squash Risotto and Choccy Brownies for afters I totally recommend both as scrummy!

Som - after Ed got teeth it took a while for me to not notice them while he was feeding, he also leaves teeth maks after a feed which look a bit scarey butthey don't hurt at all. its just like when you've slept on a wrinkly pillow and have a mark on your face
He has been hurting me a lot recently but I discovered 2 lovely white tooty pegs popping out of his gums yesterday so I expect normal service will resume shortly!

I worry about stopping BFing Edgar now, he asks for a feed when he wants one - aka every time he wakes up at night so I have no idea how I'll tackle that!

Is there anything on CFR that incorporates an aubergine? Hubby decided he absolutely had to have a moussaka this week and bought 3 from the market... But I have no mince... And I can't be bothered fetching any lol...

Does anyone know what the most over the top adorable Santa's Grotto in Edinburgh is and if one has to get tickets?

Also:

Scottish ladies, I was thinking Tuesday 23rd or Wednesday 24th for an Edinburgh meet-SS-the-builder. Anyone?

tuesday good for us, esp as it can involve a buggy I'd like to know about santa too.

thanks sami - I couldn't remember who'd posted about it initially as I wanted to thank you! They've relaunched it and its bigger easier this time

This CFR lark sounds great. I think Annabel and I will test a recipe this afternoon too

Got it thank you! First impression is it looks great, Edgar would eat it all, Chris would be a bit more trouble with some parts but I shall give it a go

oh I shall get to checking it too then

I fancy [STRIKE]meeting [/STRIKE]Sugar I wonder if we could manage a trip to see FIL, not sure OH has any holidays left tho, its too much for me on my own with the boys...

Krystal, do you have pasta sauce and cheese? Slice the aubergine and grill it (brushing it with oil is nice), then layer it with pasta sauce and mozzarella cheese and bake in the oven for a bit. Serve over spaghetti.

All are welcome to meet me in all my hairy-cracked builderness. Let's say Tuesday for MacSmiler's convenience and the pushchair

I was wondering why the other Scottish ladies weren't replying to me and then I remembered they're playing outside together today :rotfl:

Afternoon all, seems like a lot of us have had a stressful night. T and I are both ill, we both have colds and T has had diarrhea for a couple of days and I have acquired an upset tummy this morning, just puked up my brekkie I had at 8 - can't keep anything in my tummy. I am bfing at the mo, should i continue as worried may dry up or I may get dehydrated, any advice welcome thanks!
