now there's an idea...never thought of that and as I make all of the bread in our house it would certainly use it up!

I'm going to try some yogurt made with buttermilk today to see what happens...I'll let you know what happens...

Thanks milims and becks! Freezing is an option but unfortunately my (very large) chest freezer is completely full at the moment!!

Hi everyone, :wave: didn't realise quite how long its been since I last looked in and now I could do with some help!! My local supermarket has been selling cream at a very good price (19p for a large 600ml tub) as it is near its sell by date so I have been making butter like mad :lol: The trouble is...

oooh, that looks good too...and so simple...I'll give it a try.

I'll have to keep my eyes open for this cookbook, I have many (hundreds!) already but there is always room for one more!

:wave: hello everyone! Now, I know I posted this originaly in 2008 but it has taken all of this time to come up with the recipe as seen in my local healthy bakery (Leakers in Bridport). Finally I have the recipe for their health bars 'no added sugar or fat'...and they are delicious! I actually found...

Just a quick thought...did anyone watch catherine tate on Charlotte Church's show the other night? (its not something I would normally watch but we were both to tired to find the remote :? ) One of the first things she said was 'david is leaving....' and Church didn't bother to ask her to explain :r...

I grew up in the 1970s in a 3 bed semi on a council estate in Cheltenham. Our parents both worked, meals came from the freezer shop, the Good Life was regular viewing and the garden was full of rose bushes :? ...except for one small area where my mother planted a dwarf apple tree. Those were the bes...

Having made quite a few litres of utterly delicious ice cream, I have been struggling to find things too make with the egg whites I have left over. I started off making meringues, which are now also sitting in the freezer then i made some coconut pyramids (not such a good idea with a diabetic, cocon...

I would have done exactly the same, Bluemoon...we lost Skipper back in December but I still miss him every day. Labs are the sweetest natured creatures and leave such a big hole when they are gone. We will have another lab eventually, probably a chocolate, but as yet it is still too soon. I think yo...

As it is such a very wet day I decided to trawl around the charity shops this morning and have found the bargain of the year! 5.8 metres of Crowson furnishing fabric for £2.50, another 15.2 meters of the same fabric for £4.50 plus 14.2 meters of curtain lining fabric for £3.00 :cheers: It works out ...

We're not able to do away with the car completely just yet (80 year old mother!) but we are saving up for this great electric motorbike (technically its a maxi scooter) :cheers: http://www.vectrix.com/live/uk.php By the time we have saved up the money later this year they will have improved the batt...

...and DT has filmed the Christmas special at Gloucester Catherdral...loads of snow and ...... a coffin.....

Yet again, planners are threatening another family with eviction from a home and lifestyle that most of us can only dream of. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/devon/7485547.stm OK, so they didn't get permission but what really gets me is that the councillor states "We would end up with the co...
