hiya everyhoo.......
I am in the process of knitting squares...I've loads of blankies to send off I better get me finger out and go the post office.
I'm waiting on some wool I bought lots of different colours to the blankies will look nicer.
Numptz...is your cooker fixed yet or are you the font of all knowledge of the slow cooker?:-)
I've saved that link for cake pops, the girls in work would love them I may give them a try instead of muffins....they eat those like they're going out of fashion:_|
I bet I get asked for some when I go back to work.

I tried cake pops before christmas, I wanted to make them look like christmas puds with milk choc, topped with white choc (for the cream) with a little sprig of holly on top.
All went well until I dipped the top into the hot melted white choc & it melted all the already set dark choc. So I binned them & sulked and haven't attempted any since.

couldnt you have used white icing instead gina?
icing sugar with a drip of cold water
it gives a thick white paste and its cold

Cake pops - Pain in the bum - what a performance. You bake them, insert stick - apply coatings - melts - dribble, dribble - rubbish nonsense.
Cake pops will be available - with a choc fountain - a lot less work - (and much more fun) 🙂

My grandson has just gone home with a bag of cake pops that I made this afternoon. They're difficult to decorate because the stick falls out when you dip them in the chocolate so you do end up with sticky fingers, but you can stick the stick back in when you dip them in the hundreds and thousands.:-D

Thanks CG - will try that - thought your skirt (the other night) was fabby. Been a bit out of it with blerdy asthma meds, but printed a copy.
Does your machine do that for you?? I only have a completely basic machine (not complaining), to do curtains, straight lines, you know.

Just idly (& nosily 😄 ) read a bit of this thread - it seems to ME to have precious little to do with sewing? ?:|

Yes it does rainy, I've only had it for a couple of months and I love it, it's fascinating just watching it!! It's like watching someone paint a picture! I've got loads of squares of sheet with pictures on them. I put this on a dress I made for my toddler granddaughter last week. 😄 Did I mention, I loooove it!!!:^O

X-( trying to clear up. OH usually hoovers and I'd noticed he hadn't been doing it properly recently. I do it today and neither vacuum has any suction! So he's been merrily making lines with them oblivious to the fact nothing is being picked up! 
i found out that men overestimate the ability of a vacuum, they dont appreciate the bends in the circuit from nozzle to bag/bagless
thats why an easily sucked cotton bud followed by a cotton wool ball can slow and block the suction completely within 2 days
im glad with my vacuum atm i can take off the hose as it joins the machine and my fingers, a bend bi of wire and a spare pair of tweezers can unblock it onto a large newspaper to catch the bits
