maybe ds is just doolally too then....I thought smarties were E number heaven!

Well I have picked Ds up....had a friend pop round for some lunch, I'm eating Sticky Toffee Cheese Cake ..... and cream
(well it needed eating up...)

Right, off to remake my bed and strip the kids beds....
Shall tidy up lunch bits and hoover house too...

ludaloo · 19/09/2007 12:55

hmmmm...that's 2 threads I've read lately about how to wash bean bags....they have spurred me to wash the kids tweenie bean bag, which was yellow, and is now a kind of mustardy brownish colour.... I have just had to cut the inner bag out as it was all ripped, the outer bag is in the wash, and the beads are all in a black bin bag. I have no idea what to put them all back into!! I can't put them straight back into the outer bag, as it will only take one of them to open the zip and they will spill out! A pillow case isn't big enough....any ideas?????

yaddayah · 19/09/2007 12:57

Sticky Toffee Cheese Cake ..... and cream

Yaddah surveys her meagre ham and salad sandwich

Then her expanding waistline

And goes off and sulks

Beds made
D/W is loaded with lunch stuff
Clothes all picked up
Kids at school/nursery (ds twice due to pesky wasp)
Kitchen wiped down
Pets all fed

Have half a toyshops worth of lego sprawled over the living room floor (I cannot find a white 2 piece which of course is the only thing holding the front side of ds's mahoosive police station together

Pah !

Have a friend over after school so having tea and back to it !

tort glad your dd was ok at school !
BB hope you're having a better day today

Waves to all

yaddayah · 19/09/2007 12:59

Ah ruby your plan is a good one...except whilst cutting the inner bag out I managed to nip the outer bag and now there is a hole in it....I should just sew that up too shouldn't I I'm just sooooo crap at sewing.....I'm not even sure we have any thread! I suppose I should go and investigate...and do it properly (was trying to cheat having to sew the hole I made up!)

ludaloo · 19/09/2007 13:17

ooooh there you go then...thats good news! I don't have any views on coccineal....is it good or bad?

Jas · 19/09/2007 13:25

It is red food colouing made from a beetle.

OP posts:
ludaloo · 19/09/2007 13:32

Oh! from a beetle!...hmmmm...I guess I'm ok with that...I really didn't know that! Surely there are easier ways to make things red

My sewing box is even worse than I thought...it contains:
~small pair of scissors
~2 boxes of pins
~2 blue zips
~3 odd buttons
~and 2 empty sewing machine spindle things (I don't have a sewing machine)

I don't even have a needle, let alone thread!

I MUST get a decent sewing kit!

yaddayah · 19/09/2007 13:37

my sewing kit came from a Christmas cracker

harleyd · 19/09/2007 13:38

my sewing kit is a stapler

gibberish · 19/09/2007 14:19

Can't you put them in a spare duvet cover luda ?

Funeral went very well infact it was lovely. Sun still shining and dd2 has hoovered for me whilst I was out.

Got to catch up on some washing and start the first of 3 paintings that I've been needing to do for months. Got an exhibition at the end of this month and have to finish the paintings by the 29th for handing in . Why oh why am I such a procrastinator?

Tomorrow we are taking the girls to either the Dynamic Earth or the Science Centre so need to get organised today.

ludaloo · 19/09/2007 14:23

Ah...bingo! thanks Gibberish I'll do that (why oh why did I not think of that I got the pillow case out the airing cupboard and decided it was too small....and stood looking in there for something more suitable LOLOLOLOL!! I swear to god my braincells have dissapeared)

ludaloo · 19/09/2007 14:24

p.s....glad the funeral went well
Your plans for tomorrow sound great!

ludaloo · 19/09/2007 14:25

Hello neverenough

gibberish · 19/09/2007 14:29

Really looking forward to tomorrow - I think I'm more excited than the kids Can't quite decide which one to go to though. Might start a thread asking for opinions. But am I that brave?

ludaloo · 19/09/2007 14:30

Can't say I've been to either....but they both sound fab!

(I found an old cot duvet cover...perfect!)
