Lovely Morning Chit-Chat-Thread - April 2024

Summer months, wish it would hurry up, is that hard boiled eggs or what\?\

Hard boiled eggs and apple not over cooked slightly crunchy is how I like it

I might try that, when warmer weather, just  cleared up, son came in about four and was here a while.

I'm in the middle of making my tea....a middle eastern recipe which calls for preserved lemons. Yes, I have a new jar in the cupboard, but can I open it??? Severe frustration! i have arthritis in my hands, so simple jobs like opening jars drives me mad! The recipe just won't be the same without the lemons!

A similar thing happened the other day when I was cooking a pasta dish. Couldn't open the jar of olives. I will have to start asking any visitors to open new jars for me if they call in. Beginning to feel old!

Well i did open some thing washed my floor, and then opened big bag rice and dropped it all on the floor.

I struggle with jars, but have now learnt, i have a sharp pair  of scissors' and i stab lid couple of times and can open.

Sounds nice if done with the lemons, it is very frustrating when one can not do such a simple task, that they used to. 

Hi Ellie always nicer cooking for family, have just come back from a massage and picked up the mail, 5 letters with NHS on and 1 from hospice lovely. think i will open them tomorrow. I have 28 appointments for May already

Thanks for the tip about the scissors Ellie....I might try it!

Just do not stab yourself it works for me, i always forgot to ask some one vesting and then had to go without, now hey presto, solved my  problem.

How can you have 28 appointments

I have a device for opening jars, it makes the job very easy.
