As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

I don't know about England being a bit slow and Scotland having half term last week, I think it's Scotland being a bit early.  Your schools went back for autumn in the middle of summer!:O  Mind you, with the weather you have up there I don't suppose it matters when they're off, it's still raining!;-)

[ilove2patch]

That sounds nice Merlin. I have copied it & will await the verdict! 😉

but as i was mixing i did think to make a change, but didnt, i will see how they are this time and to see if it would work

i shall post pics once its cooled

[****merlin*****]

rain doesnt bother us

you cant worry about weather and live in scotland chickengrandma

[cat-knitter]

Love it :^O

Please snigger quietly , why am i still here in the corner with a empty glass in my hand 😐

Well that'll teach you not to fall asleep, we did'nt like to wake you:-x

& yes, I've only been up an hour & a half so it still morning to me 😛

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE :^O

[ilove2patch]

Morning CK.:-) I have been to the very windy beach & back & am ready for lunch!

Making another cushion as I was rather pleased with the first one.:-D

[cat-knitter]

"morning" Maggie 😄

Windy here too 😞

I'm not surprised you were rather pleased with that cushion ....... it was gorgeous 😄

Hopefully I will be popping to PO later today to post you a little parcel :8}

[ilove2patch]

😮 You will?

[cat-knitter]

I will  🙂

[ilove2patch]

😄 You are a luvly knitty person.

[****merlin*****]

oh myyyyyyyy

well, i was impatient, and started to cut before it was cold

the crumbles were eaten over vanilla ice cream

the rest is now cold, & sliced

its delicious

i highly recommend making it, and waiting till its cold to cut it

[****merlin*****]

[ilove2patch]

It looks lovely. I expected it to be darker with the dark brown sugar.

[****merlin*****]

:^Omy new lights are GOOD!

They are a little darker than usual flapjacks

i used muscovado sugar as i prefer that for a chewy flapjack and its very dark

they are very nice as they are

and hold together very well

as i mixed the oats, mincemeat & rum together i thought there really wasnt enough mincemeat, i dont know if i would try and sneak a teensy bit more in or not

they are very "christmassy" as they are

[ilove2patch]

I am shopping tomorrow so will get some oats & the children can have a go when the arrive.:-)

[cat-knitter]

That looks soooooo tasty 😄

I will just have to drool at the pic cos I don't do baking 😞

maybe thats a good thing though as I'm the only sweet toothed member of the family so I would have to eat them all myself

[****merlin*****]

:Ooh i dont do baking either CK

i really am very rubbish at it so i dont bother

they are not baking

they are mixing and shoving in the oven

honestly

very easy

children will like all the measuring and mixing though and no messy flour!:-D

[ilove2patch]

Well the heavy rain has arrived to join the strong winds. Can't you just tell it's half term week! lol...and yes the porch is leaking again! 😐

[cat-knitter]

Mixing

placing on a try in the oven

Thats baking in my book 😐

Right time I got moving, need a quick trot into town then at vets again at teatime for more doggy jabs

Don't eat all that at once :-x
