    Woohoo. Looks like its working still. Not been to asdas today. Maybe tomorrow after Alton Towers.... :j

    Spent the day prepping foraged stuff. Free food I LOVE!

    Would be great if it is still on tomorrow.

    Going to the inlaws in a mo for FREE Sunday roast too:T

    The 'fruits' of today's labour so far....

    Foraged a few of these apple like rose hips yesterday on the way back from Asda along with a full carrier bag of gorgeous elderberries from a local beauty spot:



    So today, I have spent over AN HOUR destalking elderberries and coring the hips:


    I barely covered them with boiling water and simmered until they softened:

    I'm gonna strain em in a jelly bag and maybe tonight make either or both: elderberry and rose hip jelly jam and/or cordial......


    Free food. Gotta love it:T

    There's loads of stuff growing in the hedgerows around here. Masses of sloes in particular, but I'm no gin drinker :D

    Lots of elderberries and blackberries too. I'd love to know how to make cordials JJ....any chance of a lesson please :):)
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    If A's have run out of SP-cond and you happen to have a bottle at home, could you take the bottle back in the store and pay for it again?

    Get the gel instead?

    I think you're treading on thin ice by doing that but others have openly admitted to it

    Just a word of warning if you are going to redeeme a high apg. Make sure you get the receipt back as this means that staff members can go and put the number in ther computer and have a look to see why you got a high amount.

    Or print it again and use it themselves!!:mad:

    Yes please :):):)
    I'd thought about splitting them up and making a mousakka type dish with them.
    I love lamb but my OH doesn't like it much.....or won't try it more like!
    My MIL is a terrible cook (If you can remember "Can't cook, won't cook"..... she fit's both categories!) and he's been put off trying so many things. I have got him eating mostly anything now, but lamb is still a bit dodgy unless I can disguise it and tell him it's beef :rotfl:

    Oh that's a shame! It's always disappointing when someone refuses to try someone based on assumptions etc. My sister hates lamb "because it's a fatty meat" but that is all down to the cut and how to cook it! My biggest pet peeve is "I don't like veggies"... any veggies.. I expect that from young kids but not adults :rotfl:

    I'm thankful to have some amazing friends who are excited when I have new foods to offer. I've made authentic (as I can find) pulled beef burritos to char sui buns, all from scratch and a lot of research went into finding information.

    Anyway! I shall get on with putting this recipe together for you! Not a great pic but this is the kokkinisto.

    Table setting for burritos! Home made salsa, ranch, spanish rice and pulled beef.. The flour tortillas on this occasion were shop bought but I had made some previous, they where a bit small for this huge meal ha ha.
