THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

Just had to go to Aldi today to see what everyone is talking about.  Yes, I bought a yoghurt maker and a dutch pancake maker as well.

The farmer that makes 4Real milk here, put a link on his FB page to other dairy farmers around the country and some are also selling unhomogenised milk. Thought I'd post here as others might be interested too. The milk tastes just like milk should taste !

1L orange tops - $2.10

750ml glass bottle - $2.70

Not too expensive, Debbie. Promising....

I've never had real milk. The stuff from Coles and Woolies are already tasty for me...coming from Malaysia. We only got fake milk flavoured with vanilla

Thats a nifty p/cooker Emme 

I picked a nordic ware giant cupcake pan, as I just don't love the silicone one I do have



Also



And I loved these new cake pop moulds



And another cupcake courier

[Bedlam]

Now you are in business Maddy you just need to buy all these handy things for your cupcakes. Sounds good to me

[Wonder]

Emme, I've got a Kuhn Rikon as well but the frypan model. I love it and you only need a very low heat to keep the pressure up. can't wait to hear what you cook.

I bought another ute, love the new Ford Rangers.
this one is a dual cab 4x4, so I can drive it too with the kids.

Obbie you should list all your big girl garage toys to your signature.

I should update it Gert.

[Emme]

Wonder, thanks for the tip re heat.  My old one a scanpan won't maintain the pressure, leaks out around the lid.  Replaced the seal but it still leaked.  Looks as though the lugs on the lid and the pan have distorted a little. The kuhn is a much heavier unit and made out of thicker material.

Obbie, you sure like those utes.   

Great buys Maddy, love the cup cake mould.

I just bought 36 tonne of sand to go in my horses night yards. It has been carted in this morning and is now being spread.

Sad I know - but I am very excited! It means my boys will have drier tooties at night, and I won't be skating through the smelly slop every morning. Yesterday was my most impressive slide - from the gate to the post - about 2 metres. Up to my ankles in the smelly stuff (imagine horse poop, wee and mud) as I skidded, nearly lost it when I smashed my arm into the post, mud up my legs and into my wellies. But I did not go a... up - I kept on 2 feet. Then I looked at the spotty horse who was having a not so quiet giggle! He did think it was funny.
No free entertainment for him tomorrow morning.

Pretty sure you don't need a photo of all my beautiful sand
