    Can anyone give a step by step guide on making muffin socks - I'm going to buy some proper muffins to eat so we can use the empty (clean) carton and then we'll have 4 muffins - any help appreciated!

    TIA

    I bought some flannels this morning and 2 coffee mugs as I thought I could add a sachet of cappucino for each one as its for the girls in work, but the flannels are not square (they are regtangular) and I seem to struggle to fold them as nicely as the rest of you have. Are there any tips or is it just a case of practice?

    anyone trying to think of an alternative to socks and
    flannels I was in Debenhams,they are selling a cupcake
    with a pair of ladies knickers in £5.99,in a plastic bag
    with a little bow.They were those type you get in the multi
    packs so there is a high mark up price wise

    laurarobbly your reindeer are so cute

    weezysmith like yours too where did you get those cases
    they are nice is that a bath pearl on the top ?
