    Hello all

    Shell -- Did you make the chocolate pizza? It could be one of those accidental discoveries that turn out to be the best thing since sliced bread -- or the best thing since a lovely home made chocolate loaf with cheese and tomato topping.:D

    Jjef -- Argos have the 6.5 size MR slow cooker for £22.64. Not such a good price as the Cookworks one but people seem to like it. I bought one today and it's huge. First slowcooked meal tomorrow! Not much pork and a LOT of vegetables to fill it up.

    Enjoy the bank holiday everyone.

    Can somebody tell me how to do the crossing things off your list thing - I don't know which button to press - thanks

    Dusty

    press quote on the list that you want to cross off so it opens a window and then you want to hi-light what you want to cross off and press the button [STRIKE]S[/STRIKE] and it should then have {STRIKE} !!/STRIKE} but in square brackets around the text. When you post it, it will have a line through it (ive used curly brackets otherwise it wouldnt show what i mean)

    Got a second load of washing dried today, it is so windy. Cloudy now though.

    We got the car vacuumed out and washed, really needed it.

    And made DH put stuff back up in the loft that had been hanging around for weeks (I don't do ladders!)

    Grannynise - nope afraid it got washed down the drain, due to the amount of liquid is was just a runny mess and definatley nothing doughy about it. Think that one will be coming back to haunt DH for a while (he he he - evil grin!!!)

    wilf that is most definately not nothing, give yourself a break

    Right got rid of the hord of kids that invaded my garden, dinner eaten, most washing up done pans soaking. Had a disaster in the BM and the oven, mainly due to being distracted by kids, which means the bottom of my oven is covered in burnt batter mix, the BM overflowed destroying the loaf, ARGH!!! moment.

    Definately going to be kitchen on the list tomorrow as now need to clean the oven, again :( Going to type the list up in a mo then will post the link in here when it's up.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
