Lol.... Yes... there's a whole section on it... written in invisible ink

That's ok. It's probably a potato-starch based ink.
At least you can read it.

[Monkey_Monkey_Underpants]

's looking good, Spud.
Sorry about the element for your melter, though.
I came and spiked it in the middle of the night, in return for your bunions comment.

(Actually I haven't the foggiest idea what one is. But I hope the small ones work.)

And, for your information, I only have bunions when they're tickled. In salad, or with a hunk of cheese.

 

[JackieN]

what a pain about your melter. Its annoying when we can't get things over here and have to wait for it to come from the USA. Wouldn't you think somewhere here would stock these things

Food looks good Dawnie :bighug: xxxxxxxxxx

Really?? I would have thought you would have known what a bunion was :giggle::giggle:

Yes, it was really annoying that I couldn't get a large melter in this country, I tried for about 6 months searching but couldn't get the double jacket sort. They are specially made in the USA for soap makers. They don't make them over here

Yeah, my food is brill today, The braising steak is bubbling away in the slow cooker and smells divine Yum..

 

[Dawnejoy]

Hope you don't have to wait too long for your element Dawn, its a pain when you are waiting for something before you can get on and its not as if its coming from the Uk and delivered in a couple of days!!!! :sigh:

That's right it will be a good few weeks yet. Never mind, worse things happen at sea!

Hi Dawn x

Shame about the thingy for the melter jobby

Does that mean you're out of action till you get a replacement?

Hi Dawn

No I can use my smaller melters but it just means a lot more messing about which takes more time up.. I have made lots of hand salves today as my outlets are asking for them so that is at least something. They will just have to wait a bit longer for soap.

 

[skinnydawn]

Oh well at least you can be getting on with other stuff then. Still a nuisance though.

How's Andy? x

 

[dabhand]

Hi Dawnie,

He's feeling much better thank you, today has been his best day yet. He is eating better and is taking an interest in things much more now. He has even been sticking labels on tins for me We go on Thursday to see his consultant so we'll know a bit more then after his blood test. We are hoping to bring our little chickens back with us from the sanctuary on Thursday as well so that will cheer us up having them roaming around the garden again and giving us lovely eggs every morning. Andy's job is to collect the eggs my job is to cook them It's good that things are starting to return to normal...
