7 jars of Seville Orange Marmalade made this evening so that's another thing ticked off my list

2 Christmas cakes ready to go tomorrow with fruit soaking overnight and I can tick that off my list tomorrow. One more HM present making session to go and I think then its al done and dusted for a month of so

So far have make about 2 tonnes of chutney, pickles, jam, marmalade and flavoured gin. I love the end of summer and autumn to make these things ready for the year ahead and see the cupboards full of all these jars. Some are to sell if some people want them and some are gifts and some are for me :j

Just decluttered the remains of a box of Thorntons and a martini and lemonade after another ding dong with the ex who is giving me a hard time yet again for no reason. He can go and ..... himself for all I care

Just off to have another drink and try and repair i-tunes which has disappeared off the lappy

I'm not in the flylady group (yet!!) but I'm spending all weekend getting ontop of my house so I can be a flylady and have your help keeping ontop of it.

Looking forward to joining the new week of flyladying

I've decided to stay in, partly to save some money, partly because its freezing and partly because we've lit the fire and its much cosier snuggled up with my jimjams and a GnT.:D

Also just put an apple crumble in the oven.

Just googled martini as fedup just said about it and I have a bottle lurking in my drinks cupboard and found this superb Noel Coward quote on how to make the perefct Martini....love it

Noel Coward, the English playwright and author, suggested that a perfect martini should be made by "filling a glass with gin then waving it in the general direction of Italy," meaning the less vermouth added to the gin the better the resulting drink.

I've decided I love Noel Coward.:rotfl:


Tomorrow I must ebay like an ebay thing from ebay land.

I'm staying in because my babysitter is out babysitting so DS1 can go get leathered in the pub across the road from my house!

Louisa just started working in Zest.. they have the chef there from Lattitude and are doing fabulosa grub from a new menu.. should you need to check it out..

I have never had gin.

I also need to ebay like the Queen of Ebayland!

Nope never.. I've also never had baileys, southern comfort, ... ok let' do this the easy way...

Cider makes my head hurt and I come out in a rash.. ooh.. must try pear cider..

Lager.. the smell makes me heave, the taste makes me chuck

Wine is disgusting.. all of it.

I drink bacardi and lemonade occasionally if the vodka runs out.

I don't drink coke (or snort it)

I'll drink smirnoff ice sometimes.. more than 3 make me feel sick.. too much sugar and fizz. I have been known to glug bacardi breezers in my youth (at about 28 I had 3)

That is me..
