Thanks MMM ... I see from the link that I claimed I was going to try the lentil soup in November ... ah well, only March now, so not bad going for me :lol:

Susie, I have made a batch of your honey oat bars every week since I discovered them also around November I think and they have totally replaced flapjack here.
Deeeeelishious. I am not a big sultana fan so I use cranberries & linseed instead. You are already famous amongst my family & friends who all adore them.

Might go and have one now in fact ... :cheers:

I did succeed in making a very nice rabbit stew last night, they are only £3 at my butchers and think I have made enough to last me days! Had no idea one rabbit would go so far!. I can still eat well on a dreadful budget :lol:

Vegetable pie with cheese and herbs in the crust, with stuffing balls and whatever veggies were in the fridge at the time as a filling (though it works very well with leeks and either butternut squash or sweet potato.

We had friends over for the weekend and got a free range chicken for Sunday, went to cook it yesterday and it had started to turn :roll: ie funny smell skin had a slimey feel :pukeright:
So what do I do all the shops are shut, everything else is prepared :? so I googled a question about chicken bacteria and apparantly thorough cooking should kill all bacteria.
So I kept quiet and Sue and our guests thought it was fine :silent:
So its Monday morning and we are still alive :pirate:

Well if I ever have roast chook at yours I shall be personally inspecting under the bacon! :iconbiggrin:

I just wonder what Pelmetman's wife will say if she reads his posting (I think sometimes it is her posting, not him). That could be amusing. :lol:

Hi MMM

Thankfully yes we are all OK. I will defintely be checking under the bacon and everywhere else next time :lol: :lol:

Suppose it is quite confusing if it is me or Dave replying. As a rule I usually use the blue/yellow flower smilie when it is from me. :flower: Not sure if there are any other couples using this site!
