Welcom, welcome to the mumblemumble well, some large number thread for the healthy eating crew.

Shiney is our leader, but all creeds are welcome here, from the -50lbs club (whoop whoop!) to those who would like to lose 50lbs, to those who would fade awya if they lost 50lbs and just want to eat more healthily and/or chat about cock.

i would so love a copy of baking with bella

BitOfFun · 01/03/2010 19:57

It could have a back section called Baking With Bof which adapts the recipes for the chronically incompetent . It would say things like "Do a quick sweep of the surface where you prepared the cake just in case there is a whole jug full of eggs and cream which you have forgotten to add to the mixture before you put it in the oven" and other similar tips.

BOF

hellsbelles · 01/03/2010 20:12

BOf - I think we might just have a bestseller on our hands

TrillianAstra · 01/03/2010 20:25

I could have a problems-page style section on 'ugly but tasty', counselling people on how it's the taste that matters

Evening. Why are you listing clothes instead of food? (cue genuine use of emoticon)

I'm quite sure Jet some of the best ideas start when people are joking around!
Come to think of it I had coffee a few days ago in the cafe that claims to be the one Harry Potter was written in..

VinegarTits · 01/03/2010 21:19

good idea about a book

  • How to avoid eating behind your own back
  • Craving salt? hangover or vitamin deficiency?
  • Yes, strawberry jam IS on of your five a day
  • You can maintain your weight by eating Mac Donalds

Nah, i think you best leave me out

BitOfFun · 01/03/2010 21:20

Nicolson's? I used to love it in there.

hellsbelles · 01/03/2010 21:23

vinny that is my favourite cookbook section title ever 'how to avoid eating behind your own back'

I've got to go watch 24. I look forward to seeing the masterpiece unfold

TrillianAstra · 01/03/2010 21:26

We're listing clothes because Shiney is a Primark snob

Evening all,

Carrot cake made, looks ok but I'm not totally convinced it will taste all that good Still not bad for a first attempt at Carrot cake!

I'm suddenly very tired, might head to bed in a sec!

Loving the idea of a SHINEY cook book

iggi999 · 01/03/2010 21:31

Yes you would have thought so BOF (didn't know you'd been up this way much ) but this was the Elephant House. I think like the places that claim Henry VIIIth slept here, many cafes claim JK had her scones there!

BitOfFun · 01/03/2010 21:33

Oh The Elephant House was lovely- my best mate worked in it for a while. I used to live in the city centre, various parts for SEVEN years, you know. First flat was on Nicholson Street.

iggi999 · 01/03/2010 21:35

OOH

bellavita · 01/03/2010 21:35

Carrot cake looks good Norma - om nom nom!

I am having a low cal hot choc drink and then helped myself to a triple choc cookie for good measure.. it did taste nice, but that nice thinner feeling has left the building now and has been replaced by a bloated tum. I think it is psycological (sp) but it still feels bloated knowing there is a "bad" food in there.

TrillianAstra · 01/03/2010 21:36

DP was on the phone tohis brother, his neice was making really cute noises.

Your cake looks lovely Norma
