someone mentioned a book about the river cottage and i cant remember what it was called. can you help??

[Mrs Frugal]

There are several, Laura. I think the one mentioned was The River Cottage Family Cookbook. You can get it from Amazon along with the rest of the series...

 

The River Cottage Cookbook

The River Cottage Year

The River Cottage Meat Book

 

or order them through the River Cottage shop

My son has just bought it for my daughter in law, and she loves it. It has lots of recipes that children can join in with. Forward planning on his behalf as their first child won't be arriving for a few weeks.

[The Dogmother]

Clare* recommended the family one to me, said it is really good.

Yep love it.

 

Try WH Smiths though first. I got mine half price so only £10.00.

[Lesley]

I bought three copies, two as presents - it's a really nice book. We've got all the others as well.

[The Dogmother]

I might have to get that at the weekend Clare*.

 

On the topic of money saving, I looked at the site re savings (loads of good bargains), but couldn't see the bit about savings at Tesco - where is it?

 

ps have got my good mum badge on today Done 8 hours at work, cleaned the whole house, made pumpkin seeds rolls and homemade soup - feel very virtuous! Just listening to Robbie's new CD.

[clare*]

Wow Clare you have been busy

 

On the money saving site,go into the chat forum,click the blue button down the left hand side.

 

Go to grab it while you can. Tesco has a couple of threads going. Tesco misprice and discussion.

 

The organic chickens seem to be on the list today,but have not checked out Banbury

[The Dogmother]

Thanks Clare* if I'd known, I would have packed Rosie into the car and gone up there

 

I'll keep my eye on it now.

 

Are you tucked up in your bed?

[clare*]

Sorry battery went flat before I could answer last night. Yes Tucked up in bed,but looking at the internet for a new dishwasher

 

I went to put a full load of last night but not water is being fed into the dishwasher Its had a good run of 12 years.

 

I think its all this bread I'm making, bits bunging up the pipes probably.I'm not very good a clearing everything off before it goes in the dishwasher

 

I cannot live without it I am afraid

[The Dogmother]

Phil's like that; he makes me laugh - there's only him living there, but he still has a full-size dishwasher! When he comes round to mine, I cook and he washes, which means that he puts all my dishes in plastic bags and takes them up to his house to put in the washer I don't care, so long as they are clean

 

I hope that you find one soon. I have found Tesco quite competitive for white goods, but I'm sure that you will hunt down a real bargain!

[clare*]

I'm on strike in the kitchen till I get a new one.

 

Maybe I should take a leaf out of Phil's book,take them round to my mums.

 

When I first got a dishwasher, I said that I will never use it. Now I don't do any washing up at all. In everthing goes

[The Dogmother]

I've never had one, but could see that it would be useful if I could afford it. Although I am concerned about the masses of water that they seem to use.

[freerange]

We were lucky enough to be given one by some friends who's kitchen was too small for it. Its amazing how quick they grow on you! I try to salve my concience by buying eco friendly dishwasher liquid.

[Mrs Frugal]

We haven't got room for one! My kitchen is so tiny that the fridge and freezer have to live in the utility!!

[Karen & co.]

It's not the size of your kitchen Kate, but the way you use it! (or am I talking about something else )

[The Dogmother]

Don't Karen; you'll get the boys started again!

[Guest]

They don't know what a kitchen is so won't have a clue. They can only talk about p****. Where's grd's?

[Mel (& Paul)]

apparently they were on show for 30 minutes

typical man

no stamina

[Cate in NZ]

Poor grd seems to have awfully quiet all of a sudden though Snowed under with work, on hols, or just keeping a low profile until we all forget about his pants

[Mel (& Paul)]

Like that's ever going to happen.

Doesnt he know that we NEVER EVER NEVER forget

[Louise]

Either that or Mrs grd has been reading his posts

By the way - just noticed I'm a chicken addict

(what a surprise Paul says in a heavily ironic voice whilst )
