Lol Holly 'buddah' haha aww hehe, arghh work again Holly i think its time your boss gave you some time off - an extended long holiday - like maybe now until retirement, then you could get lots sewing done aye....I know aint gona happen but surely worth a suggestion ;)
Twilight your quilts are so beautiful, wow you are so talented. Thanks for showing us. Will be quite some craft stall hope every single thing sells.

looking good twilight!! Ok, bed time for me, gonna go curl up with a cuppa and twilights namesake (the book) my friend just returned my set

liz_taylor - 2009-10-20 21:23:00

Hi Liz, one of my daughters has read the set...she didnt enjoy the movie have you seen it ? Other daughter didnt read books but enjoyed movie she cant wait for next one. I watched movie and enjoyed it I havent read books tho. Maybe its the old story that a movie never lives up to a book, well as to how you imagined some things in the book.

Awww Holly grandys are soooo special aye thats a lovely pic :)

coalrange1 - 2009-10-20 21:37:00
719

yes have to agree with you holly, we sure can work the butt off than any of these young things. when i worked at farmers 2 years ago ( i use to sell dr hauschka products 100% natural products) the young girls that worked there didnt even bother to ring up to say they werent coming in, i wasnt made redundent from there, i left to go to a small make up/perfume shop called Divine, i really loved it there but it wasnt doing very well so the manager is doing it by herself now, im a beauty therapist by trade, so now im a sewing beauty therapist lol

twilight23 - 2009-10-20 21:46:00

the books were way better than the twilight movie but still cant wait for new moon
holly wat a little cutie

twilight23 - 2009-10-20 21:51:00
721

Maybe I should read the twilight books aye, best book i have read lately is 'the shell seekers' by Rosamunde Pilcher it was great story and I cried at the end ;( lol
I get into reading modes i read book after book and then stop for months!

coalrange1 - 2009-10-20 22:18:00

look wat i just found !!!!!!

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons flour

4 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons cocoa

1 egg

3 tablespoons milk

3 tablespoons oil

3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)

a small splash of vanilla extract

1 large coffee mug

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous). And why is this most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

It is very yummy hot or cold and with custard and ice cream it is lethal LOL.

ooooh bacon and eggs would be lovely, sunny side up plz with "dippable" yolks.. (preg supposed to have eggs fully cooked to rubber... so my message board eggs can be however i damn please) Not feeling that much better, i just think i've hit that wall of "you can only feel sorry for yourself for so long" if you get what i mean. Having another hayfever attack, plus have started taking some ginger pills to help conteract the nausea, and they seem to be taking the edge off.
