Hi My sister is obsessed by pickles, so I was wondering if anyone had a great recipe that would be good (made next weekend) for christmas, Needs to be simple! I think she would appreciate something with chilli. Also I am planning on a pickle hamper type gift and was wondering if any of you knew where I could get a pickle type christmas ornament. [ random, I know!

I've been experimenting a bit with my wrapping paper.

Not sure about the kraft paper thus far. It is good quality and I do like it, but I'm not sure how I could dress it up. I'm thinking I might use little chocolate santas at some point [once I've decided on a ribbon type]. We'll see.

I love wrapping presents.

They look great, ive got some little jingle bells they were on a couple of quid from ebay and going to tie one to every tag

Also got some stickers made that say either - do not open until 25th dec or merry christmas love the xxxxx's

Went to a local farm shop this morning before work (8am - Im mad lol) they want £30 for a turkey to feed 2 people and have a little leftovers, what a laugh! Mr Ts it is I think!

Got my list ready for a few more bits for hampers today and start OH stocking fillers now. Will have a look out for the lidls chocolate but last time I was in the cheapest they had was 59p so I hope they have the cheaper stuff this week!

Sugarspun That code would be great if you could PM me

I love your signature with your present rrp savings, made myself a big spreadsheet this week and sorted all my present stock so I could work out the same hehe

It's really addictive - my nerdy spreadsheet now has 2011, 2012 and 2013 in it. 2010 was lost in the Great Virus Attack of early 2011

The free nail varnish is an email you print and take into a shop, unfortunately, but if anyone has an American Apparel shop nearby and would like me to fwd the email let me know

SO, after painting my bathroom hot pink (the joys of being a single mum with a camp son). We have decided to paint the kitchen the same colour ......... As well as the front door *whistles*

Fab! Our front door is orange, I love bright doors! I hope you're feeling better now.

Congratulations noodle86 and your lovely baby!

Organising continues here. I am shattered!

Those are lovely OwnMyOwn! One teeny thing I noticed (I hope you don't mind me saying) is there is a small spelling mistake on your Grinch sweets - it's hectic instead of hetic. I would hate for you to lose sales if someone noticed is all

Thanks. I can blame dd for that. She printed the tags. Will get it altered .
Mind you I never noticed. But then I don't think I ever actually read it.

Have just deleted it off FB page.
