Seconded - amazing looking sushi! I really must have a go at making it myself one day...

Thank you - I bought a kit with a book, dvd and a mat in it and for a long time made it with the mat which was not too hard when you get used to it then when we were in Oz we found one of these

Sushezi,Sushi Maker.( see the video)Postfree | eBay

but only paid about £5 pounds for it - the secret it out!!!!!

Was quite amazed when I just looked on ebay and saw how much they were in UK.

Hello - nice to be back.

When I was taking the photo of the poached egg I said to my OH - just put the fork in the egg so the yolk runs down the broccoli please
so what does he do - wiggles the fork round it so the whole top splits - men!!!

My neighbour came back from UK yesterday and brought me some Philadelphia Chocolate Cheese (why!!). I saw it in UK and managed to avoid it but it would have been rude to refuse her present - good job I did not taste it when I was there as I would not have been able to resist it - had it on a couple of Ryvitas and could have easily taken a spoon to the tub and eaten it all.
Anybody else eat it?

So far i have avoided it like the plague but I've heard it's delish and I know you don't like scan bran but apparently it's lovely on them too

 

[systema]

It is - I have told my hubby he must eat the rest of it (he is really skinny and never puts on weight) and it must be gone by tomorrow.:giggle:
Just watching Come Dine With Me and the American woman on there has made the biggest chocolate cake I have ever seen in my life and she said - it is not a party unless someone is sick - as she was cutting it. You can tell I love chocolate!!
