Hi Taplady
I make my dough in the bread machine.
For 4 large pizzas I use
1lb 3oz strong white flour
1 and a 1/2 tsp easy bake yeast
1 and 1/2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil (or a lump of butter)
300ml warm water
This works every time and I can stretch it out to 5 pizzas if all the kids are in for tea.
Hope that this is useful0 -

Hi Chums ,have been pottering around this morning ,mainly tidying up and a little bit of washing (mostly towels) which are dancing on the line in a lovely drying breeze.The sun is out and its quite pleasant. Rain is due for us in the south east on Sunday, might help the farmers a bit.After lunch I'm off to my history class for the afternoon so that will keep me busy.Tomorrow I am going to my DGS school engineering race.Year 6 made a go-cart that they are racing against others up at Rochester Airport so I am looking forward to seeing Jack do his stuff.I think its so good that they get all the kids involved in doing something like this especially as they're only 10-11 year olds. Jack has quite a scientific mind at the moment and loves to see how things work and what makes them tick.
Hope everyone is having a good day
Cheers Chums JackieO xx0 -
Morning all
Thinking of both Silvermaid and Cranky today xx
We have the on/off weather here too today.
It's my student social worker's last day on placement with us so we are going out tonight to celebrate
we are going straight from work for bite to eat and few drinks. My boss can't make it so she has given us £20 for the first round of drinks
. I have organised her leaving present - a gift voucher for local spa. She is mum to 3 kids, works p/t and studies f/t so needs a treat!
OS wise - made sandwiches for lunch, that's about it!
Have a good day all

Just my contribution to the pizza bases conversation - I do mine in the BM, and I chuck a small scoop of poppy seeds in with the flour.;)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0

Afternoon All,
Thinking of Cranky and Silvermaid today
Bramble1 that's good luck get the lottery on
redruby, Molly I give blood regularly. I'm O resus negative I think only 7% of the population have that blood type so I think its really important. My mum has regular transfusions as well.
Tea tonight will be roast salmon salad.
Just got my sons birthday pressie as he is home on wednesday from Oz yeeeeeeeeeeeeh and a couple of other pressies as well. June is an horrendous month for birthdays with virtually one every day:eek: costs me a fortune just on cards.
Anyway DH is home and we are off out for a sneaky lunch.
Have a good Friday all xStarted Self Managed DMP 10th May 2017.
Working hard to get rid of our debt.0 -
Two coats done, and its looking good. I couldn't find the dust sheet, think I've lent it to someone
and have lots of wee white blotches to clean up off the laminate now. Hopefully one more coat and I can crack on with the paper which should only take an hour or so!
DBIL got his biopsy results this morning, they are clear TG but he needs to go back in for another operation. Sis is very relieved to say the least!It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your window
