    ETA: really pleased with my progress today, just breaking it into little jobs makes it much easier than 'clean the bathroom'.

    We just tried to make rice crispie cakes but it all went a bit wrong. I added golden syrup to the chocolate and it didn't melt properly just kept going hard again. I don't think it's going to set. Oh well we'll just have to eat rice crispies with lumps of chocolate instead if it doesn't. :cool:

    Since my last post i have

    Sorted recycling
    Put rabbits to bed
    Emptied kitchen bin
    Cleared drainer
    Washed up
    Wiped sides & table
    Cooked tea
    Made some weird rice crispie concoction

    I'm having a quick coffee and then i'll start again

    Holly did you put butter in too? Long time since I've made them but I'm sure I used butter.

    It is really cold here this evening with black ice about. I need to go back out in 45 mins to get DS3 from athletics. Just going to do a bit of dinner for myself first and check a few bills whilst it's cooking. I'll do the list for tomorrow once I'm back.
