THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

[johnro]

No Judy but I took up Kathryn's sugggestion and have put a list with preferred supplier on the fridge (given that the gift giving season is approaching) + attached the email which I received yesterday re Kitchenware Direct price match.  However there will be an order sent from this house during the coming week      

[judydawn]

There will have to be Robyn or you might miss out on that price.  Have you cleared the fridge so that this note stands out and cannot be missed

Go for it Robyn. Mine is a sunbeam but it aerates the icecream beautifully. We now have all natural icecream in a variety of flavours.

Brought myself a cupcake maker yesterday. Makes 6 cupcakes. With the problem I have with my oven I thought this was a great idea. Made some plain vanilla cupcakes last night and some whit choc chip and raspberry cup cakes today. Cooks them perfectly and all the same size.

Hope my DD doesn't see this, she wants me to get a cupcake maker, how long for a batch

[judydawn]

That was a great idea mandi - now you know they are going to turn out perfect every time.
Is an 8 hole pie maker on the list next

Gee I don't have a cherry pitter. To be honest I would like to have enough cherried so that I needed one.

Cookie it isn't like we grow cherries or anything, but when they are in season we buy extras so we can have cherry pie out of season.  Frozen cherries cost $18+ /kg so if cherries are ever on sale I buy extra for later.  Oh and it's very exciting when I sort out the freezer and find a bag of cherries.   

You can also use a cherry pitter for pitting olives.

[Bedlam]

I love my cherry pitter, it does 4 at a time and has 2 sizes. We use it for olives also.  Especially love it at Xmas time

Takes around 6-8 minutes to cook 6. Um and an 8 hole pie maker would be great lol.
Oh and forgot to mention that I got myself an iPad too. I'm loving the convenience of it. Got it second hand and is only a few months old. Very pleased with my purchase and saved a few $$$ too. (now lets hope the iPad doesn't have gremlins like Hally's iPad) 

[Bedlam]

Mmm you have to be careful with the proof reading. I always need to go back and modify my posts. iPad seems to have a sneaky way ofl playing with our words.

Love the pink scissors Mandy, I have seen so many pink things, while shopping this week and think of you every time. Pink watering can at Bunnings, pink ice cream maker etc.
