You bad, BAD people
« on: December 19, 2011, 02:37:29 pm »
Well I've been away from the forum for a very long time .....  I do sneak on here sometimes from my ipad when I need to know something (how naughty is THAT?) but since I can't remember my password and only my laptop remembers it I haven't contributed much.

WELL, had a good old read this afternoon, which I should have KNOWN would cost me money and after reading the thread started in August on vacuum sealers I've now gone and ordered one .....

It WILL save me money, and it WILL stop the waste ...

I shall need to hide it from dh (and I SWORE I would never be one of those women) until you people can come up with full justification for him ....

Perhaps a recipe for some really good marinade will convince him  :D

 :D Nicola, there's many a gadget I've purchased because of this forum!

I blame Maddy, she's a gadget queen, and andie too!

I'm sure you'll love your new sealer and DH will too.
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Have you read the thread on Pie Makers Nik  :D :D :D

Hmm, initially I thought "ooh, spiteful ;)" but having looked at them online I'm not so sure it's for me.  I have a muffin tin I could make individual pies in .....

Perhaps I just haven't seen the right one for me  ;D

Hiding things from your DH!! No-one on this forum would do that......  ;) ;)

Nicola they say the first step is admitting you have a problem. Repeat after me. Hi my name is Nicola and I have a problem......  ;D ;D

Nicola,

I know exactly how you feel. I have asked DH for money this year so I can go to the Christmas Sales and buy lots of gadgets   ;D

After joining this forum, i now NEED, (yes NEED  ;) ) the following items:

Second thermie bowl
Fondue Set
Pie Maker
Vacuum Sealer
Dough scraper
Bread thermometer
More bread, cake and tart tins
More silicone cupcake and muffin cases
More containers for all my flours, grains etc

I am sure once I get to the shops there will be more things I absolutley need  ;)

I laughed all through that post. Thank goodness m y DH keeps buying little things he needs with the old cars.(like a $400 mig welder) so I don't feel guilty at all. Well not much. 8)
He said last night he wants the ultimate gift voucher for Christmas, one he can spend anywhere, anytime and doesn't expire.........................cash. He said he only wanted a little bit. I was going to do it in 5c pieces but then realised I would have to go and change them into notes not him.
So he is getting one of every denomination stuck into a large card. :D :D :D :D

Once you start, you don't stop.
I'm lucky its one hour drive for us to go to any decent shops.

I had the pie maker, and the ice cream machine.
I would like a vacum pack too.
