    Do you know, that onions have now been a key feature of your diary since 1st January? That's 12 days now.

    I'm going to restart juicing on my diary.

    That's because I have staying power :D. So, unfortunately, do the onions :rotfl:.

    What lucky timing!

    My plan was a bit wrecked unfortunately. I went into the kitchen, to find DH using the last of the bacon on the roast chicken...will have to wait until tomorrow, when the other pack defrosts! Lol.

    Had to get tiles for btl3, also new bath panel and shower rail. Had priced up cheapest and came in at £130. Went out to buy and thanks to lovely Mr Topps pointing me in direction of cheaper tiles :kisses3:, and Screwfix having bath panel in sale, came in at a bargainous £90 :T.

    Onions still caramelising :D.

    Few small Op's made or pending. Something I relisted on ebay sold for £5.50. Refund for missing ebay item. DD coughing up for an Xmas pressie. Small Tillytidy :T.

    Bargainous mahoosive sirloin for dinner :D.

    Bit worried about forecast for snow as I really need to be in the office :(.

    GG :)

    I love onions, esp cheese and onion sandwiches, I know they stink but the pleasure gained from eating them at work far outway anyone elses discomfort!

    I love raw onion on salad too...

    Oh and cheese and onion potato...

    Even like onion soup...


    Hate JUICE! (actually I do like OJ)
