THE SHOPPING THREAD :-)

[Cornish Cream]

My children just put them under their pillow - gross now I think about it.

My kids did as well Michele
Wonderful box Karen

[mcmich]

Oohh CC - a box is a much nicer idea. How did our children ever survive?

[CreamPuff63]

They just did

lol mine put theirs in a glass of water to wash it for the tooth fairy so I can tip it straight down the sink as I have a THING about teeth  Love the box though, and it's uniqueness 

[Aussie Brenda]

I remember when my little GS was staying with me (quite a few years back) and he lost a tooth, he left it in the bathroom on the bench so the tooth fairy took it and left him $2,   in the morning he was looking for the tooth, I had to tell him it was collected my the toothfairy, he was not impressed he WANTED the tooth back to take home to show his Mum.

I ordered one of these today for my iPad.  Will especially be good when we go away and I use my iPad instead of my laptop, will be able to type properly.  It forms into a case so will be good protection too.  I've bought a couple of the Wallee products and found them very good quality so didn't hesitate buying this. Reasonable price too.

That looks great JulieO. It's a pain trying to use the iPad keyboard sometimes. I'm always clicking delete instead of 'm'.

I've been pretty good lately, though have had to buy a few things for our Albany house. A Stanley Rogers knife block, Tupperware - the pantry pack, really nice sheets. That's about it as the previous owner left loads of stuff.

I'm not even THINKING about Xmas right now! I hate that time of year as it's harvest time and really, really stressful. Late nights, early mornings, rain at the wrong time, breakdowns, the list goes on. I love January.

Christmas decorations. 



X2 for the mantle



.....edible sweet  theme I think this year 

[kt2]

Great to see your gorgeous decorations Maddy! How are your chickens going?

[maddy]

How are your chickens going?

We had 3 eggs infertile, 1 chick wasn't formed properly, and one very small one has died, but the rest are going strong 
We now have some miniature ducks cooking up now.

[judydawn]

Poor chickens/ducks - they start their lives in a cooker and end in the same way    So cute, are they that colour due to their breed?  I always associate new chicks with being mainly yellow.

Christmas in your house would be something to see maddy - a different theme every year, wherever do you find room to store last year's decorations?

[KarenH]

After getting the special tooth fairy box, DS's tooth came out sometime yesterday, never to be seen again - probably swallowed.  Nothing to put into the box for the tooth fairy to come and get    

Never mind, the fairies were generous and still left a coin overnight 

[judydawn]

Oh no, poor kid - what a disappointment.  There's one way of finding it but I wouldn't like to have to go down that path 

[KarenH]

Im not going down that path either Judy!  Mind you, if he thought there might be another coin in it for him, DS might well go hunting for it   

[judydawn]

Hopefully he won't even think of that option Karen
