    Just wanted to say hello.

    Made a huge pot of pea and ham soup in the slow cooker - chicken casserole is in the oven and DD helped me clear out a huge set of three kitchen cupboards and sort it out so I can find stuff.

    DD (13) will probably send me out for cookery ingredients when she gets home but orher than that I am going to take it easy if I can.

    We seem to have spent the last three days in non stop activity so it will be a relief to calm down.

    Hugs to everybody.

    Hi elona!:wave:
    When can I move in?! Would you like to adopt a Tiff? :D
    Thanks for the hugs hun. You made my mouth water with your farmhouse kitchen menu angel.

    So what time's dinner?;)
    Actually, you made me get up and break out the new slow cooker I bought and there's a silverside, leeks, onions, carrots and potatoes simmering away as I speak. So thanks for the inspiration hun. Looking after yourself properly is the 1st thing to go out of the window isn't it when you're in a low spot?
    How are things with you elona hun? keeping you in my thoughts.
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    Nothing wrong hun, we often become more sensitive when we are low.

    Don't know if your hormones are playing a part - I'm only a bloke :confused:
