    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    My day ended up busy and now I'm jiggered again. Watching embeddable then off for a cooling shower

    Evening all

    Yet again not caught up with today's fruity escapaes:D

    Hope every one is well.

    Just wanted to say that today has been a really good day.
    This morning I had a winning email:j
    I won a snugglebondl. Ok not very exciting but will be put away for next family or friend to have a baby.
    The Orchard want me to check out D0ver extra (Think pd said she got around £17 of vouchers for her store so fingers crossed).
    Then to top the day off I have just sold my unused dining table for more than I paid for it new:j:j

    Not being an early bird my lovely mse friend got me some Morries vouchers which I look forward to using tomorrow.

    Plus my dd actually listened to me and got herself a couple of papers. Unfortunately can't be used in morries local near gym so she will have to have a trip into town but her kind mother also posted her a £10 sun voucher so almost the weeks shopping sorted for her.

    Right off to read back to see what you have all been doing with your vouchers.

    Just wanted to say to 3dogs thinking of you tonight:A

    Here's the recipe I used before for MSK and anyone else that wants it :)

    To make 5 x 225g jars
    100ml olive oil
    2kg onions (peeled and finely sliced)
    200g Demerara sugar
    150g redcurrent jelly
    300ml cider vinegar
    50ml balsamic vinegar
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

    Heat oil then cook onions on low for 30-40mins (onions should be collapsed and beginning to colour

    Add sugar and redcurrant jelly, increase heat, cook ~30mins (mixture turns dark, nutty brown and most moisture driven off)

    Take off heat to cool for a few minutes, then add the vinegars, cook rapidly for ~10mins (mixture becomes gooey and spoon drawn across bottom of pan leaves clear track for a couple of seconds)

    Add salt and pepper, jar up, use within 12 months

    This is great thank you, I've been looking for a suitable recipe for months. Could I ask where you get the cider vinegar from please? I think the farm shop near me has it but I don't need 2L of it! This is the perfect recipe to use up all the Demerara sugar sitting in my cupboards after I overdid buying to make wedding fudge :D

    I did see post and thought I had thanked it but I don't do shopiteyes don't know what it is even :o

    Sorry if I didn't thank post but I thank every post apart from the odd one. I have noticed though if I go back looking for something some posts I know I thanked have been unthanked :mad:

    Don't fret. I'm not great at thanking...it slows down my catch up :o

    As long as you saw it that's all that matters :beer:

    Break into florets and put in boiling water for about 3 mins. Rinse under cold water until chilled. Put in freezer bags in the portion size you want. Freeze:)
