  • Good morning. Still very cold, but the temperature has just crept above zero and the sun is shining.

    Snoop Puss, too many eggs?

    So quick, easy .... and yummy.

    I have just booked my second online shop. Usually once a month I visit the biggish Sainsbury's. Never the vast one, as it is too big and in the wrong place. However I've just decided that I'll do this shop online, and add all the heavy stuff to it: tins, bottles, bags of flour, sugar etc. Of course, the theory was that "goodies" wouldn't hijack my trolley. 🤫🫣 Wrong!

    It is so weird to see big gaps in my freezer at the moment. My cupboards have also never looked so bare.

    Last night I spent a fruitless half hour searching for one of Mr GF's hearing aids that he suddenly realised was missing. I searched everywhere.... I'd given up. He went to get into bed. It had been caught up somewhere in his clothes and fell on the floor. Hopefully, he is going for a hearing aid appointment tomorrow in the city centre. .... if the snow and ice has thawed.

    Keep warm everyone!

        I don’t make the roulade so cream isn’t needed!

        • Used to love home made jams and preserves, but after a brush with type 2 diabetes(yes even more health woes), I have to seriously ration sugar intake. I failed my mot at the doctors, but with diet and exercise I have lost almost 20 kilos and am a mere slip of a lad now, but most important out of the diabetes range and no need for medication. Just takes hours to shop checking the sugar content of everything I eat.

            • Burnie! 20kg?
              Wow…absolutely WOW!
              “Well done matey” seems like a bit of an understatement!

              Most impressed with that xx

              • My house now smells of tea bread
                I only have a 1lb cake tin so I used that and made three large muffins with what was left over.
                I guess we’ll be trying those as soon as they cool down- with butter
