I might hold off entering competitions for a while cos I've decided the third thing I should win is lotto.

Good luck, I hope you do.

I actually won $51 in lotto the other day and squealed so much the lotto man thought I was crazy. The lady behind  me squealed for me too. I felt quite rich. I think I would be struck dumb I'd I won much more.

Yay good win cookie! You must be getting closer to the big one...  DH won $33 and "re-invested" it in more tickets. I would take the money and go and buy something to remember the win by

I only win bits and pieces in xlotto so each year I buy a sealed tin money box and put all my winnings in it.  On 31st December I open the tin and it usually has between $300-$500 in it which is an amount you can do something with.  Mind you, if I win the big one it won't be going in the tin LOL.

Judy I love that idea. I guess the occasional $9 would add up over the year.

I have the burghul draining for this at the moment. I am glad that I re read all the posts as I would have used baker's flour to make it.

Make sure you get as much of the water out as possible

It is on it's first rise at the moment. It was no where near as sloppy as my first one. I may even try to plait this one. I have another loaf of bread in the oven and I want to use the same tin so I don't want it to rise too quickly. I love how bread rises so much better on warmer days.

I plaited the first couple, but I found it was easier to cut if left plain. The plaits are definitely more for cosmetic value I think.
