    The limit of my DH's culinary prowess is Dairylea on toast btw, though he does make a good cup of tea :rotfl:

    I have had to ask my darling, darling dh to stop making me so much tea. It's just too much.

    He's also a good cook. :).

    Thai spare rib marinade? Recipe please mr.domestic god :p

    Sorry just noticed..
    I use 8 pork spare ribs...(Not bacon ribs)

    3 chopped garlic cloves
    1 tbl spoon of chopped fresh coriander
    6 tbl palm sugar (or light brown)
    7 tbl of tomato sauce (ketchup)
    2 tbl light soy sauce
    2tbl oyster sauce
    1tbl ground pepper
    3fresh chillies finely chopped (or dried)

    MIX....fridge for 12 hrs...then 180 for 1hr 15 mins but i do a bit more turning over as necessary as you want meat falling of the bone...I cover for first 3/4 hr ..
    Enjoy..
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    I personally think it is thoughtful...and hopeful all at the same time!

    Saying that, I would be much more in mind to have bedroom antics if I came home to a prepared meal as I wouldn't be so stressed and tired because the hassle of doing it would have been taken away. It would relax me enough to actually think about it!

    Most woman do a similar thing, either to put the other half in a better mood if we have overspent on something, or because we are after something.....
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

    I would have thought that drumsticks would be best suited to a salad lol, not a sunday roast!:o

    If there's only 2 of you its less waste than a whole chicken. Especially if like me your not a fan of left of meat sandwiches.
