While at FF in Melbourne I mentioned to a couple of the ladies that I had brought a new frypan.  Actually it's a saute frying pan as I find that this is far more useful to me!  They wanted to know the brand ect so here it is:-
It's a StoneDine 32cm pan.  It's PTFE & PFOA free
I had no intension of buying a new pan as the scanpan one I have is fine but it was reduced from $300 down to $60 in Harris Scarf.  I just couldn't go past it and it works very well.  You don't have to use oil unless it's something that you have floured which then I think a little would be needed.  Nothing seems to stick which is great!

H.S. have great bargains in homeware, great pick up Trudy.  I didn't know they were in Melbourne until we passed a shop yesterday.

Harris Scarfe were in Perth many years ago, but unfortunately closed.
Every time I visit Melbourne I go there with DIL, she has a store close to home. They often have good bargains in Manchester too!

Goodies from the chocolate outing this afternoon.

What a terrific chocolate tour it was, ending with a treat , coffee and as always great conversation.
Thanks Cookie and DD

I love it, it's so cute.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I didn't realise you enjoyed shopping so much Chookie, you shopped till you dropped whenever you got the chance.  We found Ral a couple of times wandering around on his own whilst you were busy at it  ;D

Nice purchases Chookie. Lucky you had a car to haul  all your stuff home.
