    Afternoon all:j:j

    Not long in from work, Just come off the phone to my mom. The twins have been well all day twin two has not been sick now since yester day lunch time. Twin one has not been sick at all. I would say that if she cam make it untill tomorrow morning then she will not be getting what ever twin two had yesterday.

    Still not sure what we are going to have for dinner tonight. We wont be haveing pancakes untill tomorrow night . My wife is at work untill 7:00pm tonight and when she gets back it will be time to put the Girls to bed. We dont normaly eat untill the girls are in bed so it will be about 8:30-9:00pm tonight before its all cooked and we sit down to eat it. She dont work wednesdays so we will have our pancakes with the twins after they ahve had there dinner tomorrow night.
    My dad will be cooking my mom and the twins some pancakes this evening after they have had there dinner. my dad never eats pancaks. Its not that he dont like them its just that after he has cooked them he dont fancy eating them himself. He says that being stood over the pan while cooking them the smell make him feel sickly so he wont eat them.

    Well thats about alll thats going on here.
    I hope taht you all enjoy your pancakes tonight.
    Enjoy your evening evreyone:j:j
    :jYou can have everything you wont in lfe, If you only help enough other people to get what they wont.:j

    Hugs xx
    I have had a really lovely day with my online and virtual friend Mooloo. We went for a mooch around the charity shops and pound shops, some window shopping for inspiration for Mooloo's bags and a lovely cuppa. This is the first time since way before christmas that I have had the energy to do this so it was absolutely wonderful. We both enjoyed ourselves very much.

    We have just made pancakes and they were yummy:T:T:T There is some batter left over for breakfast tomorrow. My youngest son ate 4 as he was starving. Small pleasures but they mean a lot! I asked my kids what they were going to give up for lent? Ummmm no answer as they were busy stuffing their faces:eek:

    Hope everyone is doing ok. Just about to read back now xx
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Pancakes with caster sugar and lemon juice - yum yum yum. Thanks for the hugs Bitsy. Might have to cuddle up with Daniel Craig and a cup of tea tonight. Almost better than the pancakes!
    Me, OH, grown DS, (other DS left home) and Mum (coming up 80!). Considering foster parenting. Hints and tips on saving £ always well received. Xx

    March 1st week £80 includes a new dog bed though £63 was food etc for the week.

    OK it's confession time. Those of you who are not FB friends with me will now learn that I've never made a pancake in my life before. Ever.

    <hangs head in shame>

    Do I need to resign my membership to OS club now or will I be black balled? LOL

    However I am rectifying that by cooking some now, no one else is interested so I am having them with warm nutella and ice cream. Yep ladies that is what I am having for tea. It's excellent to be a grown up sometimes :D

    I've just made a pile of pancakes for tea. Trouble is that I can't eat them until OH gets in, and that's at 10pm! They smell so good, pity me. :(

    Afternoon

    Happy International Women's Day.

    something to make you think (and a bit of man candy too)


    Busy afternoon, be back later. xxx
    He looks like ann robinson when he first takes the wig off :rotfl:
    Internation women's day is very important though, he looks like a berk for an excellent cause.

    I've ended up actually doing some cooking today; the red onions caught my eye when i popped into lidl for some bits, and i just couldn't resist doing a big batch of red onion chutney after the test sunday turned out to be soooo delicious! Cost me ~45p to fill a 400g jam jar with delicious chutney!

    sharloid, i'd probably scoff the lot and have to make another batch at 9:45 :rotfl:
    bitsy, i really don't know how you've managed to never make a pancake. surely you have experienced the deliciousness of a home made pancake? :O
