morning lily! just caught up! looks like you've been having a great week!
Hey LMC, I have had a full 100% week so far, even with the star biscuits last night, I was well within my syns and it was really nice to actually have something different for a change, just hope the scales are kind to me tomorrow, cos I've had rice 3 times this week and it doesn't usually agree with my weight loss, we'll see though :hug99: xxx
Are you having the grandkids a lot over the Easter hols cos I know both you and they enjoy it.
I love baking and hate cooking - how strange am I - don't answer that
Hey sweetie, I wasn't planning on having the grandkids, even though I do love them being here, but seems Kia has planned to stay with us all week lol, Kelsi has damaged her knee and is on crutches, plus she's nearly 14 and wants to be at home and have her friends come stay, Jack I can never tell, he's a real Mummy's boy and often wants to stay with her, but then comes here and doesn't want to go home as there are loads of kids round here his age and a massive green outside my front door that they can happily play on, plus there is only 1 way in and out of my road, and I can see the whole of it from my windows, so they can play out all day and I don't and they don't either, have to worry .
Kia on the other hand is here and wants to be here all the time lol, she is a bit of a hard case (on the outside) is Kia and is the middle child, she definitely suffers from middle child syndrome and can't bare her brother and sister, so is often naughty and likes to wind them up, but here she is as good as gold....they are going to see Lyla later in the week so she will have to go home at some point lol
I prefer cooking dinners than baking, so even without me saying anything yesterday, Kirsty and Kia baked and are going to do some more tonight, cos it's buffet night at group tomorrow night xxx:hug99: xxx
same! but am trying to cook more, and bake less!
I prefer cooking dinners over baking, my mother was the opposite and was absolute carp cooking dinners lol sunday dinner consisted of her preparing veg and then putting it on to cook and then getting the roast out of the freezer. So veg was on at 9am and was topped up with water all day long and potatoes were always burnt, (seen hundreds of pans of potatoes go flying up the garden, from my fathers hands)...but she was the best baker, cakes, pastries, you haven't lived till you've had my mothers coffee walnut cake, or madelines, or cream horns or the best of all, her hot tea loaf :drool:, sadly she died and took all her recipes with her or maybe that's a good thing lol :hug99: xxxx
Morning Lily
So what did you both bake in the end ?
Morning lovely Kally, i didn't end up baking with Kia, Kirsty did...so I had a lovely long soak while they did and pampered myself.....but they made hundreds of (well actually 79 in total) sweet biscuits, very yummy at 1.5 syns each, I had 5 ....Mal had none cos he said they were too crunchy for him and the other 74 were eaten by Mark, Kirsty and Kia ...likkle piggies lol
They are making more tonight apparently for buffet night at group tomorrow night, I am making scan bran scotch eggs and home made spicy coleslaw...yum yum :hug99: xxxx
