Wow Pink HM lemon curd, something I've never even attempted and just get from the farm shop, bet it's lovely, is it easy to make ?

Hi lil_me, it's very very easy! I used a recipe I found on here but trebled the quantities and made four jars full. Thank you Glad!

Hiya,

Well we arrived in Wales safely and have settled in. We went for a drive through the Lake district so it was a longer trip. I had a raging headache by the time we got here last night, so had a early night.

Got up and packed away our gear this morning and have been out for the day. It's lovely here and had nice weather today. Our interent connection isn't the best here so I may not be able to post as regurlary this week.

Your tea sounds way more exciting than mine. Last night we had a fried egg with baked beans on toast. :rolleyes: Tonight I'm making a pasta dish. I've got a whole bag of brown rice here I want to cook up in different ways. Lots of fried rice maybe.

Crazychik Hope you find your money and ((((hugs))) with the panic attack. They sound frightening.

Well off for a surf while the puter is behaving itself. Byeeeeeeeee

Lil_me - Glad's recipe for lemon curd is very very easy indeed. And I can testify that the finished product is absolutely gorgeous!

I did my shop and was £18 over budget. However, I've not shopped for a fortnight - although I will have to try and claw back some of that cash in coming weeks.

I've done 3 wash loads, hung 2 out, brought 1 in.

I did all the washing up.

I've started a trifle - I really must remember when I'm doing one from scratch that proper jelly takes longer than the jelly that comes in the trifle box to set. I always forget, and always do the custard (in this case, raspberry blancmange to go with the raspberry jelly) too soon. Now I'm worried about leaving it too long and coming home to a Pyrex pint jug shaped blancmange and not being able to pour it onto the set jelly. Can I whisk it?

I've also started some small cakes.

I have to get tea - I'm having a salad - then I have to bring in the 2nd wash load from the line, then get ready to go out.

Hi all, back from cinema, was a great movie, kids enjoyed it:D

Am seeing about getting kids a breathable pillow as the girl that died a few weeks back with diabetes, could have had a hypo seizure and suffocated on her pillow, post mortem found nothing so tests will take another 7-8 weeks.

Pillow costs 30 pounds though so will def get for ds1, as this had never crossed my mind that this could happen, trying so hard not to think about what could happen but cant help myself, family are trying to campaign for breathable pillows to be available more, currently only 1 site does it in uk.

There has been over 600 pounds raised for the family but they are going to donate it to jdrf and an animal charity, they said a big no to diabetes uk getting it as a lot of us have issues with them over how they deal with type 1 in children, so am glad i am also doing my bit for jdrf:j

Sorry to have gone on a bit, will get back to os stuff:D hope everyone is well, and hope grannybroon gets sleep tonight!

Will make rasp muffins tomorrow and other bits of baking id like to do, need to meal plan etc for weekly shopping.

Hugs
Kyle
