Jvh sorry you had a bad day today,hopefully tomorrow will be a better day:-x

Purple i think you should go back to the Dr as well it sounds like you could use more antibiotics and maybe ask the dr for something for your cough as well.

Dame do you think i could substitute apricots for apples in that recipie freddie posted I'm not a big apple fan.

Hi and waves to everyone:-x

Well Libby, I am not a big apple fan either so maybe we should both try the apricots, it seems simple so I shall get a cake mix tomorrow:)
I have a lasagne recipe too if you like it is so simple
I do it for the seniors in a square oven dish so I can cut it up easy:)
Here it is:)
500 grams mince
onion chopped
1 bottle of Leggos Pasta sauce any variety
Lasagne sheets(san reno)
white sauce with onion
Grated cheese
Brown mince and onion, add lego sauce and simmer for about 15 mins.
I then put mince mixture in the bottom of the greased oven dish, layer of lasagne sheets, then mince again, then sheets, on top of that I put the white sauce(or you can use ricotta cheese with one egg) then heaps of grated cheese
I cook on about 170 for about 40 mins and its very simple:)

Hugs Libby and thank you

You should be able to used peaches as well......have made something similar with peaches

Great of Freddie to put up her receipe:)

The doc checked me out on Monday. Gave me a thorough going over. The coughing is really bad when I get started. Poor grand kids take fright. I get a bit scared myself as find it hard to catch my breath. Going to try the vicks on the feet trick tonight.

It is so warm here, I can not believe it is winter. Sweating bucket loads.

Jen, I just found this, if you would like to use it in your opening post:)

Hi and as promised for the girls that love cooking on this thread im posting the home made ice cream that works each time every time.

Basic Vanilla Ice Cream.

300 ml milk

300 ml thick cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 egg yolks

125g sugar

Bring the milk and cream slowly to the boil with the vanilla...then remove saucepan from the heat.

Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together until pale........whisk the milk mixture into the yolk mixture.......then pour back into the saucepan.

Stir the mixture slowly over low heat with a wooden spoon until it coats the back of the spoon( do not let it boil)

Transfer the mixture to a bowl cover and chill.

Now every couple of half hours just remove from freezer and give a whisk and recover.

This is ideal if you have kids that are allergic to nuts.........etc

Variations:)

I usually add 2 tablespoons of marsala into before chilling in the freezer.........this is devine if you are having adults only at the table.

You can make moccha....... nutmeg, cinnamon etc

Sounds fiddly but isnt really and once you have made it and eaten it bought stuff tastes right off

Have fun:)

PCT put some Vicks on your upper lip that will help relieve the breathing.

Hi Kyli4e did ya get your flowers

yes, I did thankyou beryl, but I didn't want to emphasize the point cos the next post got a bit harsh and I figured you didn't need any extra ribbing after your gesture of friendship.

and PCT, I am going to keep stalking you until you come back here and say "I have taken that mad cow's advice, and I put vicks on my feet last night"

just in case you haven't seen the scientific proof link before, here is the link
