@bubbs - if @room512's ice cream maker is like mine it's only got a very small hole to pour the yoghurt through and gets really messy. I tend to spoon mine in and use a plastic spatula to clean up the yoghurt that misses first time! I'm sure yours is much better because you can put yours in the bowl before turning it on I think.1

It froze as soon as it hit the bowl and then wouldn’t churn. Will try again tonight with a runnier mixture. We just ate the yogurt!bubbs said:room512 why was your ice cream a disaster? i always use greek yoghurt as if you don't it's not a nice, sorry missed loads of posts 😏1 -
@joedenise is right @Vegastare . I use the LM sausages as a stuffing for chicken. I defrost them. Today I've squished them into the neck end of the chicken, under the skin. Sometimes I cut them in half and roll into stuffing balls and put them in with the roast potatoes for the last 15 minutes or so. I've got a couple left which I bought on offer but I'll try the Aldi ones next as they're considerably cheaper.
It's OK going to several shops if it's not too costly of fuel or time. I tend to do the majority of my shop in Aldi and go to other shops occasionally, usually to stock up on non perishable things we like. I'm lucky though as I live in a big city with all the supermarkets (except Morrison's) within a few miles of home.
Let us know how the chilli bake works out @Jellybaby. Like you, I'm trying to find ways of cutting back on energy. The way things are going, it'll soon cost more to cook some foods than buy them. ☹️1 -

So my chest infection from hell & my big birthday have been & gone.
I now have a ladies infection. Antibiotics are the gift from hell that just keep giving & giving!!
My eating has been all over the place , including lots of yummy food, eating out, birthday cake & well at one point lots of crap as I felt so unwell.

Happy Big Birthday @beanielou. 🤗🎂
So sorry to hear you weren't really well enough to enjoy it properly. You'll have to do it all over again when you're fully recovered. Get well soon. 😊1
