Oh Hally I hope your feeling better soon. My lot have some type of bug at the moment and they are dropping like flys. Starts with a headache then dizziness , blurred vision and felling lethargic. Good thing is it only lasts a day or two. DD 12, then DS 14 and now DD 8

[Frozzie]

Oh hally yes hope ou feel better soon..

[fundj&e]

does the mince go all muchy and runny ?

[Frozzie]

Not if you add it in last for only 5 mins or so.. Ill have to do this again when i get home as i changed the method last time.. Was to do with he meat.. Put it in in large chunks and only cooked it for a bit but cooked the sauce part for longer..

[chrissa]

I've made this about an hour ago but decided I'll have it tomorrow night so the meat sauce with beans is in a bowl in the fridge and I'll assemble it and have it for tea tomorrow

[Halex]

Made these yesterday, changed the recipe a bit.

500g mince
A little red chilli powder
No kidney beans
100g tomato paste.

Cooked up in TM.

Preheated oven180
Layered CC's & meat, cheese,  finished with an avacado &  taco seasoning with sour cream mix.

Absolutely yum.

Mmmmm... that sounds great Hally

Made these for lunch today

I minced my own meat, used thyme instead of oregano, and added a cup of frozen vegetables. I also made my own healthy "nachos" by crisping up some wholemeal pita breads

Big hit, thanks Froz

That's a great idea with the pita bread Amy, did they taste as good as corn chips ?  It looks really good. Your mum and SD must be so appreciative of your cooking.  I know I couldn't cook that well at your age (was too busy getting drunk and partying) , so it's a credit to you, you obviously enjoy it !

Has life settled down for you now Deb    You are only young once - we just can't do that as we get older

[Debbiebillg]

I don't know about settled down Judy lol, our house is CRAZY ! lol

I made the most of it when I was younger Judy, partied, travelled etc Then got married at 36 and had my first son at 37.  These days I rarely drink at all, can't handle having to get up with kids in the mornings with a hangover.  We're going on another cruise soon to NZ so will definately have a few on there. It's also our 9th wedding anniversary while we're away and also my youngest son turns 4, and my Dad's birthday as well,  so a few celebrations !

[judydawn]

Party time on board yay!  Let them know when your anniversary and birthdays are and they will surprise you with something - well they used to so I guess they still do.

[Debbiebillg]

Yes Judy party time (especially when the kids go to kids club yippppeeeee). Our travel agent has noted all the events, yeh they still do that. 

We have always gone with P & O before but this one is with Princess lines.  Our travel agent has us on the list to call for all the hot specials that come up so we got this cheaper than P & O which was a huge bonus.  I'm really looking forward to a different line.  We were quite annoyed with P & O last time.  We had a terrible series of incidents involving our youngest son and we weren't very satisfied with how they dealt with it.  I know they're all Carnival lines (but hopefully different management will make a difference).
