Oh, and some bobby pins to tuck all the hair ends in (do you call them bobby pins overseas???)
We call them "hair grips" here in the UK ;D

Fit flops are great, I wear thong ones in summer and clogs (gogh) in winter. They are my indoor slippers. FAB. I wear thong ones outside too.

Bought one of these http://www.dunelm-mill.com/shop/venetian-blind-cleaner-50732?cm_mmc=shopping-_-google_shopping-_-%3CVenetian+Blind+Cleaner%3E-_-%3C1000001806%3E.

Today. To clean the blinds in this house, the tenants didn't clean them before leaving and I've struggled with clths or feather dusters and then saw this. Was in Dunelm buying a curtain track to replace a worn out one.. All the hooks have broken and it is very grubby too.

I only have venetians in the bathrooms but they are horrid to clean.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I used to have a handle on life, then it broke.

Golly gosh, DH has just left for Bunnings. No doubt he will be going back in a day or two.

Maddy as soon as I see you have posted on this thread I have to come in and see what you bought - it's always something so lovely, complete kitchen candy!

How much space does this kitchen have, my cupboards are full, I suppose I could cull some of the junk.

Hi,

I'm new to the world of jarring things - does anyone know where is the best place to get jars? and is there any other equipment I need for it? anything I should avoid?

Thanks!

Lovely Maddy. I have the Tupperware cupcake carrier and love it. Love those vases they will be perfect for cake pops. The shopping queen has done it again.

Hi Salsbil, when you have the Thermomix and make everything for yourself you do get short on jars, I ask all my friends and family to save them for me, some you discard, but mostly they are all usable.
