    Does anyone have any meal ideas involving pickled red cabbage?

    Here one eats red cabbage with apple as an accompaniment to meat and bread dumplings. I think as a veg with SC stew and dumplings would be good, especially if you could grate an apple into it.

    :wave:I'm on!

    Yay squeak (again!):D:D At least this time I can say it in person;) I could read but not log on yesterday??

    Daisy update for delain: she hasn't slept for over a month now:eek: and its making her mummy poorly (Crohns has been hurting me lots:() but all is forgiven everyday when she does her cheeky little grin!:rotfl:She loves to flirt with herself in the mirror, chats away (I'm sure she says mummy;)), sits up for quite a while unsupported and nearly sits herself up from lying flat. She's really into her toys now which is soooo fun to watch... favourite is Sidney the Spider:) I could go on and on but wont bore you:o


    We're looking at some 3 bed houses on Monday so hopefully we'll have somewhere soon for Daisy to have her own little room:)

    Hope you've been feeling ok recently delain??:A

    Update from Susan: she's still in bed 98% of the time but is able to eat and drink, not feeling as bad as she was and sends her thanks for the good wishes.
