    Last Wednesday, I was given some jars with lids to put my chilli jam in. They are very big, so will hold a lot! Will give a filled jar back to the friend who gave me them, once I've got around to making the jam (hopefully today).

    I gave the same friend a lift to a craft show yesterday.

    Also, for those who may remember my earlier post on here a few weeks ago - the hope I was given wasn't false :):)

    today's mood is brought to you by coffee, lack of sleep and idiots.

    Just realised I missed this thread as I hadn't posted on it for a while, anyway today I gave my mum some Cadbury chocolate eclairs, and dark chocolate biscuits (from my Christmas box) for my dad, as we never eat dark chocolate in our house. :)
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.
