    SSM if your DS2 is eating apricots in industrial quantities you may not want to remain in the same room as him...

    Thanks everyone for the shops. Just back from 3 shops, now need to stay up until 11.15 to check the last one. Noticed SA put 11 through on 1 receipt :( .
    Managed to get some ground almonds as well which I am v happy about. Think I am sorted for next 2 years cakes, but saying that already waten a bag of apricots and half a bag of raisins between us. no time for tea. Our local A did not sell the jacobs.

    I bought 12, there are 12 on my receipt ... only 11 in the cupboard and no sign of the other packet of Apricots :eek:.

    Thank you to the Ops and testers - crisp and fruit stash is sorted for a while - I bought "a few" ;).

    I never want to remain in the same room as him.... we only see him when he wants food/money etc. He walked into the living room in his boxer shorts, grabbed 2 apples and 2 bananas, and then I noticed he had a bag of apricots and raisins... god help anyone sat next to him tomorrow!

    I am going to decant the packs into small plastic pots, in the hope that they last more than a week! But then again he is struggling to get through the baby food....he takes them to uni with him and eats them in public.

    In fact I might make 2 Christmas cakes this year:rotfl::rotfl:

    And here's another thing.

    You know I mentioned saving £2 coins in a jar the other week?

    Well since then I haven't seen a single one.:o I think it must be everyone saving them in jars keeping them out of circulation:rotfl:
    No, I save all mine in a big pink elephant money box. I counted it the other day and was :eek: at how much was in, will be my spending money for xmas or Easter cruise. :)

    Finished work too late to go for dried fruit and nuts, shame as I use loads, especially around xmas time. :o
