Sunday 9 th November Rememberance Sunday

Hi Gang.
Today is Rememberance Sunday so today at 11.00 a minute of silence to remember the ones who fought for us.

Well I cuttlebugged till I couldn't rotate that little handle anymore yesterday. LOL I am not sure what it is but there is something quite therapeutic about that little green machine. LOL I have a bit more to do and Brian will want to take a walk today too. So guess that will cut into cuttlebug time. LOL

Meg, I haven't made that soup recipe, but today I may give it a go. I have been thinking of it and really want to give it a go. I bought some butternut squashes on sale the other day so I can.

I hope everyone has a really super day and I will try to get back on later.

Mary, have you tried Merchant Gourmet's website? They have a few chestnut recipes on there. Which reminds me I must pick some chestnuts up sometime soon. I just love them.

Big hugs all have fun!!! I will be in the next room churing away. LOL

Hi Pat, Meg and everyone

That soup sounds good

Morning all.
The cuttlebug upstairs has had a rest recently but it's due a throrough workout - hopefully today, but if not, then tomorrow.
It's one of those days where's lots to do and I don't know which to do
first.

Better make a start.

Back later, folks.
Love,
Ann

Mushroom and chestnut soup sounds good, Marc.

I've prepared and frozen some chestnuts.Phil's had quite a few roasted (I'm not too keen) and I'm putting some in various casseroles. We've also given some away.The 'native' ones which we collected are a little smaller than the imported ones but they still have a good taste.

MAC have got a good sale on at the moment some of the papers which should be £3.99 are now in their pound shop and I got a lucky dip bag which had lots of goodies
