Pinot, they shouldn't be in shock with the cooking, they should be encouraging you

They are, but I think they have slight concerns I have been possessed by some alien demon like creature from Planet Baking !!:D

Well the blasted rice pudding still didn't get made, or the packet even taken out of the cupboard !:o

By the time I had done a few loads of washing, taken DD2 to the stables, watched her ride, came home, cleaned her up as she was rather smelly from the horses, took her back out to a friends to see their new pet, got DD1s guitar from the loft,listened to her play, had a go myself, listened to her rehearse for upcoming singing show, did a little ironing and put some away it was time to go back and collect DD2. By then Mr Pinot was heading home , DD1 rehearsed again , cooked and ate dinner. Washed up ( boo hiss ) , its now half past nine !

Where has the day gone ? In the middle of all of that one of the ebay items which we sold on Fri evening was collected, so we are now £110 richer which is nice.:D Just need to hear when the other item will be paid for and collected. Item which ended Sat didn't sell so we will relist for another 7 days I think.We have 3 more things ready to go up for sale, but haven't got around to taking photos yet.

Netflix is showing as tracking in Quidco, so all in all a good weekend, just could have done with being much longer !;)

Nothing wrong with a bit of sneakiness every now and then !! Good for the soul ......well at least thats my excuse !!:D

Hope the big dogs leg is getting better ! What breed is he ? We had Great Danes when I was growing up, they were gorgeous dogs x

The vet thinks it is a fatty lump but it has grown really fast over the last week. The dog is a black rough haired cross breed who we adopted so we don't know what he is crossed with. He is quite big, bigger than a lab but not as big as a Great Dane.

Still no rice pudding here either despite me being recommended to make it by the Slimming World ladies.

Well done on the ebay sales. I have a lot of old books I will list if I ever get around to it.

That's a big list, I'm tired looking at it!

Rice pudding will take you less that 2 mins, the slow cooker does the rest.

:T All done, how easy was that ?? :j

Do I need to stir the rice Pudding occasionally ? DD2 wants to know if it tastes nice with chocolate chips in ?! Any ideas anyone please ?! I will have a quick google and see if its mentioned anywhere !

Rice pudding in the slow cooker, Anzac biscuits baked, Spag Bol cooked. I am a Domestic Goddess in disguise, is it Pinot O Clock yet ?!!;) !
