Evening (?) all - well have restocked the airing cupboard after having everything out, painting and an extra shelf put in and have a huge pile of stuff to do something with !!!!. Three throws, some baby balnkets and I even found two hand made nightgowns my mum made when I had DS 19 years ago.

Off to cook tea now - mexican tacos and salad. Nice and quick and easy

hey the way we make it it's all healthy ...honest ...well you dont see very many fat chinese do you (god that might sound racist i honestly dont mean it to) if you want the recipes let me know

In fact, almost any ethnic group seems to have far less obesity than we have in the UK. I am sure it is simply using basic ingredients without massess of processing that makes a huge difference.

I had an early dinner of home made lamb burgers and salad. I have to admit it was yummy......but I could still murder kung po chilli chicken

Have found - when polishing - (sits down for a rest) about 36 silver threepenny pieces - do you reckon they are worth anything - could I be sitting on a gold (silver) mine?

I'd rather have Indian food but Chinese still sounds good !!!!

Well, there was a woman on Flog it (can't you tell I didn't move from the sofa) yesterday who sold her coin collection for thousands!!

didn't we go decimal in 1972 (ish)? Is it really that long since you did your housework, surfbabe??!!:rotfl:

Surfbabe

Well actually they are in a box, which is in a box, which is in a box that DH inherited from his mum who died in 1994, - we've also got a big pottery jar full of sixpences, halfpennys and penny's - all pre decimal !!! That also came from his mum (i think - might have been an uncle though) - no-one else wanted them so we had them !!! along with a spode dinner service which would cost about £3K to replace and no-one wanted that cos it was blue pottery !!!!

hypno06

Blimey, make sure you look after that spode!

Looks like you may have a good stash there!!!!...I agree with you Hypno on the obesity issue and the fact that low fat stuff is actually full of sugar instead of fat!!!!..so not very diet friendly.

hubby wants to do an indian cookery course next we were meant to start one already but the class was fully booked will try and get in to the next one though...the ingrediants we use are all fresh and cooked as quickly as possible

I cook from scratch as well and find it cheaper and healthier and at least when cooked from scratch you know what you are eating..
