I've been thinking of one of those for a long time Wonder! What a great buy,  I look forward to hearing what you think of it :)

I found a parcel pickup notice in my letterbox today, dated from over a week ago (don't judge me, there's yucky spider webs in there and it was buried under a couple of takeaway pamphlets). Can't for the life of me think what it could be, maybe I'll have something to add to the shopping thread if I can track down the parcel. Maybe I was doing some late night online shopping after a couple of vinos?

That happened to me a while ago. The items weren't all put in the same parcel together so every couple of days I'd get another one. I didn't have a clue what I'd ordered until I opened the parcel. They were ridiculous and I've just stuck them away to hopefully forget about them :D I hope you get a nice surprise and look forward to hearing all about it

Dee dub I hope it is for you, I had a couple of deliveries last week addressed to me but when I opened them they were skimpy little dresses ordered by my DIL , they don't get deliveries where they live, short lived excitement.  But I am waiting on the arrival of my new Pressure Cooker.

Wonder....there's a face book page with Asian inspired recipes for the airfryer here  https://www.facebook.com/pages/I-Love-Philips-Airfryer/163566940375180  they look delish actually.

I picked up this Charlie Brown halter neck dress on a big sale (saved $220  :o)....thinking I might keep save it for  a friends wedding in Fiji next year  8)



I have also purchased more supplies for my candle making venture....and I can't wait to show you all when I've completed all the testing!
There's so many people that make them, but I've come up with something a bit different....here's a sneak peek of the packaging, and so me I think!
I think they're the cutest boxes I have seen



When I show the finished products, the boxes will make sense  ;)

.........EAT CAKE!

Lovely dress Maddy. And such a cute box :)

Wonder, lots of ideas on that Facebook page. I've used Snap Recipes to save some of the pics. But I think the temps used will have to be adjusted for the XL model. I burnt a batch of drumsticks when I followed the settings in one of the recipes.

Love the dress maddy, perfect for what you have in mind.

Maybe the candles are going to be cup-cake candles  ;)  Love the boxes and can't wait to see what you are up to.

Lovely dress Maddy and those boxes are just adorable. I'm sure your candles will be cupcake inspired in some way.

Thanks for the facebook link, I had seen it but not spent any time on there so hopefully I'll get a bit more time next week and a faster internet to have a proper look.

Thanks for the tip BZB.
