Good afternoon

Thanks to whoever sent the sunshine......it's only just arrived :cool:

If anyone ever needs cheering up I suggest joining local FB selling groups. They're my favourite source of amusement at the moment.

My favourite today is someone selling 2 leather sofas with a matching buffet. :rotfl::rotfl:

Have you made anything nice today JJ?

Not today

Spent all day at mum's. Just on way home now.

I'm all cooked out after the tea party just over a week ago.
A real bakeathon.

When the kids had their mates over this Sunday, I'm afraid it was a case of Iceland to the rescue.

Very addictive reading aren't they.

I have to bite my tongue and not say or think anything rude or nasty but honestly - mind you even the local county council amongst their planning schemes admits the area has a "low skill set"
Also we have a large Eastern European contingent in the area so their English not always perfect

just goes to show if anyone spots anything of interest bring it along to the party - often there are small draws buried amongst the weekly email updates we get from various places in our inboxes

In the interests of sharing, here's something from an email newsletter I got today; not a comp or freebie unfortunately, but recipe, from Jamie Oliver - not a fan of his TBH but this just sounded soooo yummy:) Best not to read it if you're hungry, though, like I did this morning:rotfl:





No1 Toasted Cheese Sandwich

A toasted cheese sandwich is a beautiful thing, but I'm not messing about here – this is the ultimate one and it's going to blow your mind. But there is a particular sequence of events that needs to happen in order to achieve the most ridiculously tasty, chomp-worthy sandwich. Follow this recipe, and it will always make you feel good. It is also especially useful when you're suffering from a light hangover. This is when the condiments – dolloped onto a side plate like a painter's palette – really come into their own.

With the No. 1 toasted cheese sarnie we don't score any points for buying expensive, artisan bread. It's important to go for something neutral, and in my eyes, only a white bloomer will do. Lightly butter the bread on both sides (oh, and if you've got any leftover mashed potato, spread that across one piece of the bread – it's insanely good). To one piece of bread, add a nice grating of good-quality cheese that melts well, like Cheddar, Red Leicester or a mixture of the two. Place your second piece of bread on top, then cook in a sturdy non-stick frying pan on a medium heat for about 3 minutes on each side. This is important, because if it gets too coloured too quickly you won't get the gorgeous ooze and melt in the middle, and this is all about encouraging that internal cheese lava flow. As it cooks, I like to rest something flat with a little weight on top to ensure maximum surface area and crunch.

When lightly golden on both sides, lift the toastie out of the pan and grate a little layer of cheese into the pan where it was sitting. Place the toastie back on top and grate some more cheese on the top side. Leave it for just over 1 minute – wait for the cheese to bubble and the fat to spill out of it, then add a little pinch of cayenne pepper. Give the toastie a poke with a fish slice, and once it has a cheesy, doily-like crust on the bottom that moves as one, lift the toastie out of the pan and hold it on the fish slice for 30 seconds so the melted cheese hangs down, sets hard and forms an impressive cheese crown. Flip it onto the other side and once golden, serve, remembering to let it cool for a couple of minutes before attempting to tuck in.

The final debate is what do you want on the side? Tomato ketchup, brown sauce, a shake of Tabasco or hot sauce, mango chutney or a mixture? All are fine choices.

Some of these are so funny, the spelling and Belfastisims. Text speak does my head in, too hard to try and work out what someone wants!
On one of ours there is a lady selling a 'slow cooker' with a picture of a casserole dish.
