I think we should have a forum entitled...

I still like ironing.

I agree that there is a lot to be said for a little boredom bags so long as the mind is allowed to roam free. I think a little boredom is great for kids too.

Whether this is a spoof thread or not - my new pans arrived and they are AWESOME!

It's not a spoof thread. Please describe your new pans.

I'm not sure I trust you Jingle but I have just made pancakes with no oil - the pans are totally non-stick. AWESOME!!!!

My lovely yellow and cream ceramic 'frying' pan is wonderful for cooking omelettes.

I made pancakes today too!

Flower, could you find a link to one of those do you think? I'm not sure I've come across one.

I think we should have a thread which is a bit like white noise (if that is the right term) One with no words - just maybe a nice picture or two, I am quite fond of kittens and puppies oh and lambs in a field. And then becasue there would be no words nobody would ever get cross and when life was getting just a little bit tense or stressful, we could look at the lovely pictures and ust feel better.

oh yes!

I might ask for one of those for Xmas.

I think words are more calming than pictures.

I like "white noise" threads. (very good description)

An original notion, Soutra. Worth considering!

Me too Rockgran !
iam going to do ANA"S as well when she can get round to sending it to me !
She is a busy Gal !

That frying pan sounds really good! I might one as well!

Nonu, I'm not sure I can afford the postage at the moment. All those sheets and tablecloths, not to mention DH's smalls...

(should have been 'ask for one as well')

I've just bought a slow cooker from Lidl, it was cheap..... £13.99, and the dish is a very smart black!!

I'm feeling very calm and happy now

I was just amending my Ocado Xmas order and there's a flash sale of West Country boned whole leg of lamb half-price .... £11 instead of £22.

Thought I'd let my fellow homecrafters know!

Lamb

I've had that joint before. It's lovely. Almost wish I hadn't booked a table at a pizza joint for Sunday now. Got to please the kids though. And don't want to pre empt Xmas roast dinner. Freezer stuffed full of pasty!

PastRy!!!

As you seem to be such a domestic goddess I wasn't surprised at your freezer fully of pasty.

it's years since I ate a pasty!

My local Sainsburys have a half price sale on full legs of lamb at the moment. They seem to do it before Christmas every year. None left now 'cos I bought them all!

There were only two left!

You are like the woman in Morrison"s the other day Lona , they had reduced their haddock so I picked one up to look and she just up all the rest. I thought better of saying " Oi you I was going to have them "
What I have to put with is no-body's business !!
LOL

I've ordered the Ocado Lamb, too. They've got a Smart Pass offer for free deliveries for three months at the moment. No strings, no need to cancel at the end. With offers, it works out the same or less than Tesco.

It's ok Nonu, I think everyone else had already bought theirs, which is why only 2 were left

Tesco have legs of lamb half price at the moment. There is a maximum of 2 per customer rule.
I want some for NY day but no room in freezer
