        I fixed my knackered oven this afternoon and then went to Sainsbury's to buy the ingredients for zenny's spinach and ham quiche. Bought a kilo of spinach and I'm gonna use tomatoes instead of ham.

        Your lunch sounds tasty, stirly....
        Reccie, it was tasty. Simple but tasty. Actually the salad was the best part of the meal. Will you use tomatoes instead of ham because of the calories? We get ham and smoked turkey here that is only 3% fat content. It's really yummy. Mind you they up the salt content a bit to make up for the lack of fat content. But much healthier than the regular ham.

        Wot was wrong with your over? And :goodjob: on fixing it yourself. I once tried to fix my steam iron. When I opened it up, two pieces went flying out. One was a little spring. I found where the one piece went, but not the spring. Seems it was part of the thermostat thingey. When I plugged it in, it just kept getting hotter and hotter and wouldn't click off at the appropriate temperature so whenever I ironed, I kept having to plug it in and then unplug it, iron a bit and plug it back in again. Pain in the arse, specially since I don't like ironing in the first place. :no:

        What's with the word game on FarceBook? I went to see what it was about but it said that I had to give them access to certain info in order to play, and I didn't want to do that. Can't you play it without giving them access? One reason I have never shopped for anything on-line is because I don't want to give them my credit-card number.

You've not had much luck with the cars so far. One won't start, speedometer broken in the other. I wonder if it's because you're a woman that they are trying to pass off the shite cars on to you.

            You had a fabby day there Stirls! I love bargains! And tanx for da huggz... :l

            Jingos Pinky... no luck with them motors at the moment. Have you got more to look at?
            I did have a great day. We went to one of my favourite shopping complexes that is only about 8 kilometres from here. We've discovered this great place for coffee that makes the most delicious baguettes with smoked turkey, sliced tomatoes, lettuce and cream cheese. The baguettes are so fresh, crispy on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. And their hot chocolate has the the slightest hint of almond flavouring and it tastes like it's made with black choccie. I resisted getting a topping of whipped cream tho'. Didn't want to overdo the calories.:H:H

                Well it was a really long time ago - about 28 years, I reckon. I've gone through several irons since then. They seem to be ill-fated in my hands. One even took a dive off the ironing board. I don't have much better luck with vacuum cleaners either. Keep forgetting to empty the bag and change the filter. I've gone through several of those too. And at least three washing machines. And as many electric stoves. I'm really not supposed to do housework and such.:catroll:

                  The main reason for using tomatoes is cos I love them, stirly. Calories was another consideration, though.

                  The heating element in the oven had gone, causing the trip switch to trip every time the oven was turned on. They're very straightforward to replace. I can definitely visualise your shenanigans with the iron. :upset: :H It's exactly the type of thing I would get up to!

                  The word game on FB is great fun. Yes, you do have to give them some permissions and I didn't like the idea either, but, with the benefit of hindsight, I think it's ok to give them those permissions.

                      Evening all. Not long back from a walk. Rubbish on tv so far saturday is always bad for tv. Britains got talent on at 8.30 so might watch that. Just going to gey dinner. Baked spud chicken breast and salad. Well done on the bargain sneakers Mrs stirly and your lunch sounded yummy. I don't eat a lot of pizza once a month with a salad as they can be high carb and calorie. Well done on fixing your oven Reccie. Enjoy your dinner.

                          I used to live beside a bakery in Antibes... would just nip down there in the morning on my days off and grab a fresh baguette or "restaurant" to have with my coffee. In those days I could eat what the feck I wanted and not get fat... dammit! )A pastry shop opened next to our store a few months ago. You can't believe the smells that come wafting in when our door is open. Dawg, it's torture to not run next door and grab some kind of sweet.:upset: Their front display window looks something like this...

                          Reccie, I once replaced the thermostat in our oven in Canada. It was quite straightforward but a little difficult as you had to get the bugger in exactly the right position to get in into the hole in order to push it into the oven. I was determined to do it though and was right chuffed with myself when I managed it. Saved about $60. for the service call.

                          Well it would be a good plan if I could actually get away without doing housework but I can't. Since I only work two days a week and I'm not disabled or mentally challenged, I really have no excuse.
