Hiya!

Happy Birthday CD - sorry it is a bit late in the day!

Thanks everyone for their lovely birthday wishes.

GMM, pmsl at the window cleaners getting an eyeful! I bet you have the cleanest windows in Glasgow don't you??!!

Having a good day. As dh was working from home this am, we didn't set the alarm, and we all laid in until 8.00! K was the first one awake having slept for 12 hours!!!
Been out to lunch with dh, and going to pick up B and go to the park and then back here for cake and presents and cards. Haven't opened any yet!

Think K is under the weather again tho, as yukky nappies and very tired again. She seems happy enough tho when awake.

Need to run as off to collect B. Apologies for not mentioning everyone. Back later on. xx

Oops posted on other thread...

Okay, I'm searching for the message but not finding it and going crossed eyed scrolling up and down.. who said they had recipes for easy mix-n-go cakes/muffins? I would love any such recipes if you can email me? jennie dot douglas at gmail dot com

Bumble I loved Anzac biscuits when I was in Aus. I think I tried to make them once and they came out not dissimilar to brandy snaps Again, would love the recipe.

I make a yoghurt cake which is the easiest cake in the world to make - no weighing at all (yay!).

1 lemon yoghurt
1 yoghurt pot of veg oil (I know it sounds gross but just do it)
2 y.p of sugar (or less if you want)
3 y.p of plain flour
3 eggs
1.5 teaspoons baking powder

Tip yoghurt into bowl. Add oil and stir in. Add sugar and stir in. Add flour and egg alternately, bung in baking powder, pour into greased and floured bundt tin and bake at 180 for 40mins.

For the icing mix icing sugar with juice of a lemon to whatever consistency you like (the thicker the better!) and pour over. For added touch sprinkle flaked almonds all over.

YUM YUM! Off to try and make those muffins of lucewheel;s now..

Elkie - strictly speaking I am holiday i.e away from home with dh and G.But as we're staying at ils house while they're on hols in France it doesn't feel like a holiday really.

GMM- no worries about meet-up.

Happy birthday to CD and SOKL - hope you both have fab days and that you are made to feel special .

Maveta - perlease send us some of your weather. Typical, I get the summer off work and the weather is pants .

Had S weighed this morning - 12lb 9oz at 9.5 weeks old. She is just above the 75th percentile, so a little porker!

Off out tonight with the other mums from E's school - first proper night out since S was born. What's the betting I'll be curled up asleep under a table by 10pm?

SOKL, glad to hear you're having a nice time, impressed that you've restrained yourself from opening pressies and cards until this evening.

[maveta]

Oh alright then, I´ll have a word with the weatherman and see what I can do...

GMM - didn´t receive the email?

Back again! Bought a lovely summery dress from Monsoon & some baby bits for friends who are having / had babys from Mothercare. Monsoon has a FABTASTIC sale on all their children's clothes ....... sooooooooo much stuff I could've bought - drooling at the thought of it all - I was v.restrained though and just stuck with my bits & resisted the urge to spend all my Birthday tokens on my beautiful girlies. Went to Starbucks & had hot choc and lots of different cake: Carrot Passion, Choc Chip Cookies & Blueberry Cheesecake ...... YUM!! Doubt I'll even have space in my tum for Thai Cuisine tonight!!

Have a lovely evening out tonight Emmy - Can't remember anything else - brain completely useless.

Need to go & rescue DH - in the bath with v.v.v.v.v.grumpsome DD1 (& DD2 & 3 who are fine)......

[CaptainDippy]

Oooooh, thought we might need one of these .......

Happy birthday to CD and SOKL! I hope you both have lovely evenings!

Have the baby firmly stuck to me as she tries to consume magnificent amounts of milk - it must be a growth spurt or she has become addicted!

Going to unlatch and get the other 2 down - it is mummy time !

[Katy44]

Morning everyone
SOKL and CD, hope you had good birthday evenings
T had a good night tonight 9 until 7 with just one wake at 2 - unfortunately he didn't want to go back to sleep at 2 so I ended up on the sofa again
And I'm ill - sore throat and headache [pathetic smiley]
