A couple of years ago a friend and I had gathered some stuff from the garden and were having a go at making a Christmas wreath, while her two girls played with mine. And then another mutual friend happened to call round with her...

We have a friend of a friend, and his wife, lodging with us at the moment and she has coeliac disease. Most of the time they cook their own meals but it’s nice to be able to share things now and then. I actually had a bag of...

Fleur Luckily it won't be wasted as we are eating it - and the flour did need using up : )

Fleur It smells good! Haven't tried it yet because it improves if you store it for two or three days before eating.

It occurred to me this morning that I do not remember putting stamps on my most recent batch of Christmas cards. I do not know if they will send them back to me or deliver them and ask for postage. I believe only two of them...

Fleur It's easily done! I don't know what happens there; here they normally deliver mail with a charge to pay, but at Christmas they often let some through anyway.

It has been a long standing joke with me that if a guy really knows how to play guitar, he could play with rubber bands and make them sound good. In my references I have mentioned guys like Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, Eric...

Ick. Everywhere I look on live cams on YouTube there’s sn*w. The Brownsville, Maine deer pantry just started feeding the wild deer today (apparently there’s a law in Maine that you can’t feed them until after December 15); and,...

Fleur @FourWalls That's hilarious - but also concerning because we (humans) are using so much energy (and thus causing climate change) constantly for such useless purposes!

Happy Monday Everyone! what a yucky weather day. Started with snow during the night, changed to wintry mix, mid morning changed to rain and now it's lightly raining and foggy. I think the only thing we won't see today is the sun....

This is insane. This is sick. This is horrific. And this is normal in America because this country has a disgusting fetish with guns. The 2nd Amendment was written over 200 years ago when there were no such things as...

Sometimes the nonchalance my sister and brother-in-law have about throwing food away just really gets under my skin. Not only is it ignorant, in my opinion of course, and I don't mean that in a mean way, to throw food away, it's a...

Fleur I'm completely with you on this. We never throw anything edible away. There is always some way to make it into something interesting. For example in the past I've been given left-over sandwiches from a party and I used them to make a savoury bread-and-butter...

Fleur The recipe uses 4 tablespoons. And apparently for coeliac disease (in contrast to gluten intolerance) even a trace of gluten - for example using the scales after someone else weighed out wheat flour - is enough to cause damage. So I will need to make something...

It seems few remembered my story about conducting the brass band so perhaps you’ve forgotten or haven’t heard this one either. I hadn’t been in the band long when we had to play for Anzac Day. This involved marching. I had...
