Sloblady thread

I have moved the printed lists of flylady's tasks on my noticeboard, and tidied the noticeboard as I couldn't find any of the important stuff!

Although I have still not implemented any of the tasks yet. Only had it a year! Come on. I am building up to it....

I have bought an act!ifry... not only does it make amazing low fat chips, this is a sloblady's essential kitchen item because

1) you don't have to peel the potatoes, just wash them and it makes amazing chips/saut! potatoes/roasties etc. feeling lazy, just cut potatoes in half, feeling like a domestic goddess, cut them in to lots of thin French fries!

2) it actually doesn't even need washing each time you use it You wouldn't with a deep fat fryer so why bother?

3) half way through, you can chuck some bacon in with the spuds and then microwave some baked beans = Dinner with just the baked bean bowl to wash up!!!

I have used it every day since I got it

Why not microwave the beans on your plate?

Genius! :T:T:T:T

A proper dinner with NO washing up except for your plate and a fork! :beer:

I love new potatoes cause they are usually small and generally don't need peeling.

Until you realise you didnt quite seal properly,open the cupboard door and its like an inflatable life raft greeting you:rotfl:

Or it expands so much it actually pushes the airing cupboard door open and you can't close it

I brought a multi cooker from Aldi reduced by 10 quid as it was the last one. Its basically a low pressure electric slow cooker. Cooked a sausage casserole in 30 mins, then cooked a chocolate fudge brownie from catering mix which was out of date from Approved foods, in the same pot without washing it (mix was in a pryrex bowl, half a cup of water in the cooker pot) kids were horrified! But still ate it...

If i gave my husband scrubbed and not peeled potatoes he'd say 'having a lazy moment were you love?':mad:

He doesn't like new potatoes for that reason but at least i can say 'if i peeled them there would be nothing left of them'.:)
