Just started In a New York Minute by Kate Spence. Only on chapter 2 but it looks like it will be a nice light read. I have just put The Siren's Call by Chris Hayes on my reading list - it looks like an interesting read.

Finally picked up our wardrobe from Ikea - it has been a long and involved process for some unknown reason, but all taken care of now. DH was having a great time blasting around finding all the necessary components in the pick up area - I think I may have created a monster by letting him loose in there!

Welcome back,Judy, sounds like you had wonderfully restful and idyllic time while you were away.
I did a load of clothes shopping for our upcoming holiday - well, it seemed like a lot as I was in David Jones for 1 1/2 hours and was assisted by a lovely man selecting various items for me and trying them on (me trying them on, not him!) - in the end I came away with nothing but I then wandered into Myers and did manage to buy one pair of trousers so not a total loss. Then on to JB HiFi to get a power bank for all the necessary electronic devices we now have to travel with. Then back to Myers as I had forgotten underwear! Back home for a break then on to Ikea to finalise our new wardrobe and had a very frustrating time arranging when we would pick it up as they do not hold items. I thought it would be a straightforward arrangement but it became complicated. I understand why the cannot hold anything for you - can you imagine if someone came in ordering beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, etc. ... it would be a nightmare for Ikea to pick and store everything for any length of time. Anyway, we eventually got that sorted out and I headed back home again totally shattered!

I'm with you Cookie, I think I have a few naughty bits and pieces as well. Hope all goes well with your specialists' visits.

Felt like soup today but had nothing "soupish" in the house so invented peanut butter and cannellini bean soup - not too bad

Mab, hope they were able to give you some help at the hospital.
Hope your troublesome wart is defeated with this new treatment, K Atie

Thanks Chookie. I am happy to go with 2 tsps, it looks like a good option.

Thanks for your follow up.
I made the recipe at the weekend with 1 1/2 tsps and it seemed OK. I just felt that the larger baking powder quantity would leave a taste in the cake. Anyway, it worked OK with 1 1/2 tsps but, just out of curiosity I might make it again with 2 - 3 tsps and see what happens.
I think the recipe would be American, considering its source (Facebook)

I had a text from my consultant today to confirm that I wanted a 7. Of course I said yes. 😀😀
... was there ever a chance you were going to say "No"?

For Xmas DH bought tickets to a Food and Wine Show long lunch at Babajis, an Indian restaurant in Warburton, so that is where we got to yesterday. There were a good 100+ people there and the tables and chairs were all set up alongside the river. A beautiful spot, an enjoyable meal and a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

It looks like a nice recipe, Cookie, lots of tasty and healthy ingredients. It seems to resolve the question I put on here earlier in the week about a recipe I had found, similar to this one, that asked for 1 tbs of baking soda - I had already resolved to make it 1 tsp and see how it goes.

What a cute wee budgie. We used to have them when I was young - they always had the same name so there was always confusion if we referred to one of the earlier ones.
I made it to the Garden Show in the end It has certainly bounced back since the last one I was at. I couldn't get anywhere near any of the stands selling plants, unfortunately, but still managed to spend a good few dollars!
