    Oh man you can tell I'm on a diet - I thought you meant "Dressed Prawn" as in some sort of prawn cocktail.... :o

    Woohoo I've been unblocked! Not a clue what happened there..

    Ahh Flower that's brilliant news! So pleased for you, your plans sound lovely :) Can't wait for more DOTDs! :D

    Happy secret anniversary Birdie!

    Shrimpy your weekend sounds great! I miss Take Me Out!

    Wendz hope having to move isn't too stressful but I agree with Tete, at least when you come back from the honeymoon and you just go home stress-free :)

    Lara I bet it feels so good having been so productive - I'm looking forward to it when I get back.

    We've just flown up from Hue to Hanoi as it would have been $50 for a 13 hour train or $70 for a 1 hour flight so we went for the flight! Got 6 days here before we leave Vietnam for Thailand. It's quite chilly (21 degrees at night so not exactly cold but colder than it has been! :p) and wet up here so I'm looking forward to a couple more days sun in Thailand before we come home. I neeeeed to top up my tan. You'd never guess I've spent the last few months in Asia :( #firstworldproblems :D

    Awww congratulations Flower!

    And belated Happy Birthday to Dinah!

    Happy 'secret' anniversary Birdie! Some of us are trying to set a date for a wedding before we get all dress crazy, but I have a few pinned on my pinterest!

    Yay, congrats Flower! It all sounds lovely :)

    And happy secret anniversary Birdie! Can we see cake pics if you pull it off? And [STRIKE]even[/STRIKE] especially if you don't :p I made clementine polenta cake and peanut butter cookies yesterday for a work brainstorming afternoon, but keep forgetting to take pics! Just making Leon's risi e bisi for dinner. It's a new one! Sort of just risotto though...

    How's everyone else's Monday been?

    Hey Zig, your travels sound amazing! Enjoy working on your tan *sigh*

  • Congratulations Flower! Such lovely news :)

    Wendz would a redirect service from royal mail work out cheaper than reprinting? I've no idea how much it costs but I know my parents have used them in the past.

    Well I've remembered why I don't bother with desserts very often! :p Even bloody no bake traybake cakes and I don't get on well! It's taken me all night, 2 trips to the shops and my genius plan does not look like it's worked... have to wait for it to set before declaring total failure but I'm not holding out much hope! :o

    Well I've posted my shame on our Room of Wonder. :o I was cursing my decluttering last night as I'd binned a silicone loaf tray and a heart shaped cookie cutter last month (as I 'never' used them), both of which would have come in very useful so I had to improvise and it went a bit wrong! OH appreciated my efforts though! :)

    How's the whole 'Make NIM eat exciting new food' plan going Dinah?! :)
