Muppet Detector on Winner Winner Christmas Dinner - Make/Get Anything That Turned out Particularly Great?
OMG - my mum used to make that mayo when we were kids in the 70s/80s. Stunning on salads, so I can imagine it on a Christmas ham. Thanks so…

Christmas Day was a bit "meh" for us, food-wise. It's just me and hubby, but I always try to make it special. This year fell short of…

ChocStrawberries commented on Warm Functional Gloves
I suffer from Raynaud's too, so can feel your pain! I found any kind of arthritis/compression type gloves only made it worse, given that…

Zespri kiwifruit. Shudder.
ChocStrawberries commented on If You Had 10 Days from Late August to Early September. Where Would You Go?
Just got back from 8 nights in the Cook Islands. Rarotonga is amazing - we're already talking about going back. Highly recommended! 🙂
I think I married the only man alive with an inbuilt IKEA GPS. Only yesterday he said "We'll just duck into IKEA - will only take a few…
Yeah, thanks for that - I'm aware that we speak UK English here. 🙄 My point was, the OP's post IS correct UK English. If you look it up,…
Actually, "bring" is correct in OP's case, since the powerbank is going with them. From your POV they are taking it.
ChocStrawberries commented on Wishing Well Wedding Amount Suggestion

Our dog used to freak out at nail trimming time. We ended up trying a battery powered doggy nail file thing from Amazon, and now she…
ChocStrawberries commented on Last Minute Holiday - Anywhere
For something different, maybe a cruise? Shore tours to stretch your legs and explore, bring a few books to get your "chill time" on deck.
Trek FX 3 Disc. Best bike I've ever owned, and worth every cent!
