Again i am sorry for sending out late, there should be no excuse, but i can come up with a few if required. {{{hugs}}} pls forgive me.

That certainly looks like a very proud big brother. Bless your heart, it's a wonder you got a package in the mail at all.

But everything is fine now!!!

What an absolutely gorgeous family! She is so precious and what a cutie your little guy is.

You've not lived until you have eaten Marmite. I have given it a capital as it is a brand name. I've not got any in the house at the moment :cry: but it is a beefy and quite salty spread. Fabulous on toast. We had a advert campaign on TV recently based on the fact that you either love it or hate it - it was quite funny.

Tussy, I'm very glad you told me/all of us that it is beef based, as I am vegetarian, I know of Marmite from a client in my salon (she is from England), she brought me a jar of it and said exactly that either you love it or hate it. On the jar it says it's yeast, I wondered about that but Ginny said that it's a vegetable spread. She also said that a little goes a long way, so use it sparingly. We can buy it here in Florida at our supermarkets. I would love your receipe for homemade lemon curd. Thank you for your very generous offer. I would love to TRY to make it.

Oooooooops red face here - must have had a senior moment. I mixed up the ingredients of Beefy with Marmite. Marmite is suitable for vegetarians is it IS yeast based.

I'v not had it for a while as it is very salty and not good for my blood pressure.

Suzanne, thank you so much for the gorgeous things you sent me in this April swap. I love it all, especially the chicken poop lip gloss!

I also love to cook so will enjoy the recipes between the sewing. The black & white fabric will look gorgeous in my almost finished new kitchen. I will wait until it is finished before I decide what I will do with it.
