Everyone at One Space would like to wish you a FAB birthday, alisoncam!!!!!
You are such a valued member here and have helped so many people even when you have troubles of your own. I take my hat off to you

(TRUMPET FANFARE)
Your water bottle is such a thoughtful prezzie and I will look forward to hearing what else is in store this morning,
HOORAY FOR YOU!
Aw happy birthday alisoncam!!
Hope your day is fun filled! : )
Oh thankyou, this is lovely. Am loving the TRUMPET FUNFARE, hehe. Bless you.
As you know, C gave me his present of the water bottle last night, this morning, he gave me other present, mascara. (I had run out of this in the holidays). He made me a banner too! His card was gorgeous with butterflies on, and he proceeded to tell me he had seen a card with 'I love you, I love you, all over it, but as he said, 'that was way over the top'. WHATTTTTTTT, lol
My neighbours gave me chocs and £10 to get myself a bottle of wine or something 
Had some lovely cards, and proudly on display.
I also treated C and I to a strawberry gateau for later, from Iceland. Not that keen myself, but he wanted something special, so he'll be delighted. Also picked up a prawn curry for me, and sweet n sour chicken or spag bol for him, microwave of course!!! Another treat for us.
Thankyou again for your kind wishes, has honestly made my day. Friends at school wished me Happy Birthday and gave cards, but my really good friend there, (comes every Friday) has totally forgotten, hehe.
Off to munch a choc now.
xx
Have a wonderful birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALISONCAM!

I heard on the radio today that it's national chocolate day! Great day to have a birthday, very good excuse to eat even more than normal! : )
What time is the gateau, alisoncam? (am just hanging around wondering if there will be any spare slices *whistles*)
Having a lovely day especially since C came home from school. My friend is here, but in C's bedroom playing schools!!!! Have received some beautiful flowers from her and another friend from the school. Am absolutely delighted, and totally shocked to be honest to have received such lovely things 
Thankyou Pansy and Sparkling
Pheobe, the chocs are delicious, but who needs an official chocolate day, not me, hehe.
Louise, C, my friend and I have had a slice already, but plenty over. Open wide, lol.
Bit naughty really as C and I haven't had dinner yet, but hey ho
Thankyou everyone, One Space has made this birthday really special for me.
Anyone else for strawberry gateau????????? Speak now, or forever hold your slice!

Sadsy has made me cry. What a lovely thing to say, and yet, I've just read what you're going through right now with A and the hospital etc. Stay strong for all of you, and EAT.
Thankyou Sparkling. Good singing voice by the way, hehe.

Hi Alisoncam,
I hope you had a lovely day...did you finish the gateau?
HelenT
Thankyou HelenT. It was lovely. Gateau not finished yet, so more later.

Ohhh well done. Cake never lasts overnight in our house!
HelenT
Nore mine, if there is cake in the house it's daddy, daddy, daddy, pleeeeeese until I give in and it's gone, we have a massive basket of fruit mind you.
Bet that never goes at the same rate, Bubblegum!
I'm eating manky bananas this morning for breakfast...
Bananas on toast with honey and a sprinkling of cinnamon, I love it.
I only like bananas on their own! I'm guessing I'll have another for lunch.
That does sound very nice though...
Breakfast for my lot is toast with butter and peanut butter on let it melt into the toast mmmm yummy.
Oh no, not peanut butter! It gets stuck to the roof of your mouth! (or maybe it doesn't with the butter there as well?)
I had to have a laugh last night, my son has quoted me on Facebook; his status says "If you want any more to eat after that tea, I am taking you to the doctor's because there is something wrong with you" cheers mother.
We had spag bol for tea and he had a lot more meat than me and double the spaghetti. I just can't fill him!
His status on facebook, lol lol.
Peanut butter on toast, delicious. The crunchy one of course, not the smooth (yuk)
Bananas, disgusting things. C loves them however, and the smell is horrendous for me. I used to heave when he was a baby, and I had to mash it for him. Doesn't bear thinking about 
My eldest hates bananas too. When youngest was just toddling, he had a phase of refusing to eat breakfast, I used to just let him toddle around eating a banana so he had eaten without any palaver. He soon cottoned on to his brother's dislike of the smell and we had a funny but very disruptive few weeks where he used to "chase" the eldest every morning, waving the banana like a sword.
Happy days!
I don't like peanut butter on it's own, it's too dry but I use it in sauces when cooking, that with honey and tomato purée makes a nice sauce for chicken and then put in tortilla wraps with chopped up lettuce and cucumbers : )
That sounds delicious too Bubblegum. How much of each do you put in. Think I'll give that a try. Yum.
I don't have set recipe I just add a large spoon of peanut butter about half a spoon of honey and then a quarter or so of a tube of tomato purée, that's the spoons you eat cereal with, I add that to some olive oil in which garlic has been sweated and half a finely chopped onion softened. The chicken I cut into small strips but I cook them separately as cheap chicken from supermarkets releases a load of scummy water when cooked, which I don't like, I also cook the chicken in vegetable oil as nothing fries well in olive oil.
Kids like it because it's sweet.
And tortilla wraps are nice if you brown them off, once wrapped up, in a frying pan with virtually no oil in after, sprinkle a bit of grated cheese on too, or under a grill but mine is kaput.
I put finely chopped chillies in mine too, but not in the kids or they moan, a bit more than they normally moan anyway, when I cook something that hasn't come out of a brightly coloured box : )
My lot like nutella.
That's another yuck in my books, I'm afraid
It's expensive here, in Spain it was something ridiculous like 30p for the massive jar, it's really popular, I love it, on hot toast, yum yum. I was younger though in those days, if I ate it now I'd probably put on about three stone in a week : )
I'd probably have a heart attack just looking at the jar now.
Thankyou Bubblegum. Will try it.

Hi Bubblegum
The tortillas sound nice, I always think they are a bit dry and boring when I do them, but if I did a quick flash-fry and with a bit of cheese, that would be much better
They can become juicy and crispy if you give the a quick flash fry, is that the correct term for that, I never know the correct terms for stuff when it comes to cooking as I just cursorily browse recipes and think yeah I can do that, pah! who needs recipes, I sometimes produce inedible stuff but my loosely guided experiments have produced some nice things that even my kids will eat, which is saying something as they have turned into quite fussy eaters of late.
The buggers.: )
I don't do fussy eaters....now if someone would just explain that to my children.................
HelenT
I don't either, I've gone past that, I just cook what ever it is 'I' want now : ) they eat it or they don't, and when they are hungry they do.
I have a well stoked bowl of fruit which I direct them too when they start complain about being hungry, when it's sweets and cakes they really want!
When they are really hungry they will always eat an apple or a banana, and they haven't fainted from malnutrition just yet so things seem to be going OK so far.
Just bumping this up to the top of the home page so everyone sees it heh heh
