    Oh daft bat me.............I've only just cottoned on to the Natural Bubble Bath....................:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Still not totally clear though - what exactly is inside the jars ? I could understand baked beans - or is that what they look like before they go in the tin..............(forgive stupidity............lol)

    Don’t forget the pets
    Doggie or Kitty Biscuits
    1 cup oatmeal
    2 eggs
    1 cup flour
    ½ lb liver for dogs or 1 small can drained tuna for cats
    Blend all ingredients until smooth, press into a geased 8 inch baking tin, bake @ about 150c until a wooden skewer or knife comes out clean and cut into treat size pieces to suit the pet.

    That is correct Mary :T dried beans. Would of probably been better with baked beans, but if the sun ever returns by saturday, I am sure that they would cook themselves on the stall. Don't ask what sort of beans they are, my spanish is rubbish!!! :o
    Talking of cooking, the other week we had a play and made our own solar cooker and placed it on the roof solarium, but it was TOO good. We did 1 lot of rice and 2 lots of pasta, both ended up well overcooked. Can you believe it, very MSE. (We did the one with the green bucket underneath) How cool is that?

  • Thought that this idea was quite cute, adding a wooden spoon to the jars.
