    Hi,
    Hope all is good with you rhosy. x

    All is great thanks for asking . had such a good weekend of work, did some chutney and jam, froze some apples . tidied a bit out in the garden . just nice to do stuff at home with the family. How are you xxx
    Ooooh, that's a good idea, I've got half a Costco pot of glace cherries in the cupboard, sitting there willing me to eat them, they would be far better off in scones :D

    They are really nice , a favourite in lunch boxes here, ds3 hates the fruit scones but loves these. X

    Ts. DGC came round earlier and 5yo DGD saw them in the cupboard and asked if they were for her. I told her no, they were for trick or treaters. She said that she'd be round tomorrow as well. :rotfl::rotfl:

    I am not sure no cold callers applies to Trick or Treaters :eek: - it wouldn't round here as we have the sign on our door and are well stocked up ready for them to visit us tomorrow (major pumpkin carving all weekend!), and I have to say we will not be checking for the signs when we are out tomorrow - as I think most houses have the signs and most are expecting the ToTers to call in :A.

    They can please themselves I don't answer door unless I know someone is visiting and that's once in a blue moon.

    I just sit here and ignore door :D

    I am good, thanks, rhosy. :A I know what you mean about doing stuff at home. I have six bags (Shaw's ones courtesy of queenie) of dried beans, popcorn sweetcorn etc to pod and bottle from the allotments. DGC keep asking when the popcorn will be ready. :rotfl:
