You can do anything to tofu Katie! :) Later this week, I'll use it for a stirfry. My mother has been using it for years, in Chinese dishes...it absorbs whatever flavour it's cooked in...hence my using it in bolognese sauce instead of meat. Saute onions and garlic, add tofu, fry up for a bit, then add in the tomatoes, etc as in the usual bolognese sauce preparation. :)

I'm onto lime in my blanket :)

For those who joined the video yesterday the bread wasn't such a massive disaster.

And also I'm loving the sewing clips I got this week, they've made my life sew (!) much easier. Also got some weights too. And the rotary cutter that attacked me.

I really enjoyed the chat yesterday. What evening suits people best next week, it'd be 8 I think because I need to get the children in bed first. :)

Technical question for the cricketers, lol, autocorrect didn’t like crocheters.

I have some crocheted flowers...is it possible to turn them into squares of crochet? I can just about crochet...

Absolutely Katie. You can either make a square and just attach the flower on it afterwards or you can do something along these lines..
