Kirri are you saving jars for HM jam/chutney/marmalade ? I can't do that, OH swiped my preserving pan to mix up cement !!!!!

Preserving pans aren't cheap, I'd go mad!

My mum does all the jam making for me so she already has a lot of jars - but I reuse any jars I get just for dried items - decided to sell a lot of my bigger bought kitchen storage jars and use free ones.. then once I've used any contents I can just stick them in recycling if I ever use things up!

Got a couple of ex pickled onion jars delabelled, bit of raffia on and used as vases


just trying - never thought of looking on Amazon for bird seed!

Lip_stick - lentils in 'Chicken Tonight'?!

Lip_Stick I didn't get how what you said would work!

If I've understood correctly the child chooses what and the adult decides how much. If I gave him fish and chips he'd eat the lot. It might not be too varied tho!

I guess I'll just have to keep trying to get him to eat more. Might see Dietician again for more advice.

Hope everyone gets the amount of snow they wish for. None for me please.

^ I'm outer edge of South London - snow due 9am now..

Found out today that for the past 3 months since I've got my new washer, I've been putting the wash powder in the wrong section... duhhhhh.

Kirri... I'd rather gnaw off my own leg than eat Chicken Tonight... yuckkk.

No, the opposite lol. You should be in charge of what goes on the plate, but the child should be in charge of how much they eat.

lol at not wanting snow. I only want it on weekends please!

^ I should have realised with that name

Got up and ready early to go shopping, not a flake before I got in the shower and now the pavements are covered! Hope the buses don't get rerouted before I get on one!

Saw the panic buying pics in the DM - I'm mainly shopping for veg so hope they have plenty left!!

Lip_stick - I do that without thinking but still seems to work ok!

It's on their Facebook page, usually opens around 11am, enter details and then it's random draw who gets one but think they usually give away 1000 bottles.
