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

[**towery**]

[borzoi369]

[ilove2patch]

Morning all. Off to Hobby Craft with a friend this morning. Only going for the ride. I don't want anything! 😉

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

oooooooh how did that go towery?

i make homemade hobnobs as well and use oats in them
they stay more risen

millies are supposed to collapse, they arent a rounded "biscuit"

if mine dont fall when i take them out the oven, i bang the tray to make them

[**towery**]

twas ok Merlin, ive used it before  i add all sorts of stuff

used up an out of date jar of horlicks by adding it to cookies , gave a malted  taste

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

:Omalteser cookies!

i just wondered if it made them less sweet
i like making, and they take them in their packed lunch
i make them so they fit their bento boxes:^O

but like a lot of things, i find them too sweet
adding some oats in the last few may make them more palatable for me

Morning ladies.
Wet here today 😞

Need to go shopping and catch up on housework.

[chickengrandma-2008]

Morning ladies.:-D

Yes, they only lasted about a day because they were all eaten, 3 at a time in my son's case.:^O  The only person who tried them and didn't like them was my eight year old grandson who said they were too sweet (strange picky child).  I know you said to use muscovado sugar for the chewiness merlin, but do you think they'd be ok with an ounce or so less granulated sugar??:|

Hi everyone, not been here for absolutely ages, you've all been busy!  Warm and windy here.  Am loving the gingerbread men and houses, they are fantastic.  Ive done a few bits, its not sewing though. I wanted to put some pictures on but its not letting me. I've copied code from photobucket but when I come back to paste, the paste bit isnt clickable, can anyone help pleeeeeeeeease. x

[issi-noho]

Crosses fingers ... rag rug I made from old cream white and terracotta sheets

[issi-noho]

So you don't need photobucket anymore?? 
 
Some boots I made from old shoes and an old cardi

[chickengrandma-2008]

😮  How on earth do you make boots from an old cardi?  They look amazing!:-x

[issi-noho]

Some 'Altered Art' shrines I made, still need a few finishing touches though.

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

the boots are amazing!!
well done to you!


i dont know about the cookies chickengrandma
baking isnt my thing and so i stick to the recipe
cooking i will experiment and push the boundaries every day,

i dont see why not though
i'd try it
if your house is like mine
someone will eat it

(cept the pecan bars:-()

[issi-noho]

Thanks Chickengrandma :-x  I got the idea from www.craftster.org/forum/post/reply/messageID=2000092015

I can't copy and paste links onto here, have I done something wrong in preferences? It wouldn't let me do it from photobucket either
