Well done on the loss
It will be really hard staying on plan whilst you're doing the kitchen but you'll be able to pull it back once it's all done.
Well done on the loss! I need a new kitchen too. The plumbing under the sink used to leak and I have just seen that it has started leaking again and I am so afraid of telling you know who... aaarrrrgggggggg!!!!! xx
JaneB said:Thank you tilly, I will have to plan my meals around a two burner table top camping cooker (on loan), a microwave, a small fridge, think it might be plenty of casseroles and salads and the occasional chinese. xx
Thank you Hazel, I know its hard but if you can't ask him, ask your neighbour or a friend if they can have a look at it, see if they can help, don't leave it, if the leak gets to bad. xx
If you want to borrow my George foreman grill for a few days let me know Hun x then you can cook meat and stuff x

Vanilla Cream Terrine with Raspberries/Strawberries and Blackcurrant/Blackberries Coulis
You will also need a plastic box measuring 4 x 4 x 4 inches (10 x10 x10cm) syn free
For the terrine
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
15oz quark
1.5 x 11g sachets gelatine powder
6oz sweetener
15floz 425ml Greek 0% yogurt
To garnish
6oz Raspberries or Strawberries
Fresh mint leaves optional
For the Blackcurrant/Blackberries coulis
8oz Blackcurrants or Blackberries
6oz sweetener
Method
Begin by placing the gelatine in a cup, together with 3 tablespoons of the quark, and leave it to soak for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, place the rest of the quark in a saucepan with the sugar and heat gently till the sugar has dissolved (it's important not to overheat the quark). Next, add the soaked gelatine to the warm quark and whisk everything over the heat for a few seconds. Now remove the quark mixture from the heat.
In a mixing bowl, stir the yogurt and vanilla together, then pour in the gelatine quark mixture through a sieve. Mix very thoroughly and pour the whole lot into the plastic box, allow to cool, then cover and chill in the fridge for at least 4-6 hours or preferably overnight until it's set.
Meanwhile, make the blackcurrants/blackberries coulis by first de-stalking the blackcurrants/blackberries and then sprinkling them with the sugar in a bowl. Leave to soak for 30 minutes, and then you can either sieve them directly back into the bowl or, to make the sieving easier, whiz them first in a food processor then sieve into the bowl. Taste to check that you have added enough sugar, then pour into a jug and chill until you're ready to serve the terrine.
To serve, turn the terrine out on to a board, first sliding a palette knife around the edges to loosen it, then giving it a hefty shake. Then cut into six slices. Arrange each slice on a serving plate, spoon a little blackcurrant/blackberry coulis over opposite corners of each one and decorate with the fresh raspberries/strawberries and mint leaves (optional).

We have the Les Miserable the 10th anniversary dvd show and love it we have watched it loads of times too, I think its the best.Yes I go on youtube. I watch old tv series or films.
The first time I saw Les Miserables was on youtube. I'd never fancied seeing that but my daughters school did it this year so I went on to get some of the lyrics for her to practice. I came across the 10th anniversary show and loved it. I've got the dvd now and have watched it loads. I loved my daughters show and got their dvd too. One day I'll go and see the show
I also like listeneing to music on it and daughter and me sing along with the lyrics and have a really good time - obviously not when anyones about cos it's an awful noise we make :8855:
There are some slimming world recipes on there and it's nice to see them being cooked. I can't wait for yours cos your food always looks brilliant
I am one of 7 children, one brother committed suicide aged 32, and the other 6 of us are split right down the middle...I speak to 2 my eldest brother and my youngest sister, not spoken to the other 3 for 19 years and my parents since 1982, heard 2 years ago that my mother died, but as I didn't really ever have a relationship with her it didn't really affect me....a very long story here too, but I do believe it's at the bottom of my weight problems, my kids hubby and anyone I choose to have in my life are now my family....hence the reason I don't like too many personal relationships
You're puddings my lovely are to die for ...I made my neighbours son, the one that I am helping to do slimming world and exercise (he has learning difficulties), your eton mess recipe and he absolutely loved it, says it stops him wanting his kit kats lol bless him
I am just about to put some pics in my album of him exercising, he is so determined it's a pleasure to help him xx
