On the chutney front I have currently made and bottled ready for chimbo some chilli Jam and Cranberry and apple chutney ...

I have 6 jars left......what should I make next ???

did make some vanilla sugar .....but that only involved putting vanilla pods in sugar and It wasnt as exciting as it sounds

Been there, done that-with the vanilla sugar!!! Me too I was under the impression it was some amazing complex French speciality that I couldn't possibly manage unless my great great Grandma was still around to show me how....but yeah you wodge a stick of vanilla in a pot of sugar and leave it for ages.

I have a great book- "The National Trust book of Jams, Preserves and Edible Gifts"- 'Tis fab. 'Tis full of chutneys and other edible fancies, with colour photos to boot! ISBN 0-7078-0274-1

Oh emandi thats awesome anyhow i'm convinced is going to get me, i have sore boobs, lower back ache and cramps, she will be here in a few days I know it!

You never know- could be early pregnancy symptoms. Littlespy had early symptoms I seem to remember.

Yep, I pretty much just had my regular AF symptoms right on time.

I don't think that any other "symptom" I had was really a symptom until about 10dpo (when I got burpy and my regular pre-AF spotting didn't start).

Today is 20dpo and my m/s hasn't shown up for the 2nd day in a row. The extreme sleepiness is gone today but my sore boobs are back.

 

[HollyMonkey]

Holly- Did you manage to see the close up pic I posted?

Yes! Thankyou! I'm going to have to download me a beginner's origami....I can just about make paper aeroplanes, but only cos my stepson took me patiently through each step!!!! And that's about it on the folding front!

 

[HollyMonkey]

Lovely! That chutney looks licious! My dog wants to be on my avatar- I told him I'd post him on a thread instead, since my LO is too cute and my dog looks like a lamb gone wrong. But since we're in pictures mood...

Emandi - I am loving that post your found ! its brilliant

Crunchie- We just discovered we both like to make things... outside of trying to make babies. Absolutely feel free to post any of your fancy makings! Especially cranberry chutney. Yumm! I have a knack for the pastries and dessert type foods but... I try to steer away from too much of that! I get along in the kitchen all right but my sister is a near master chef... when she comes to stay, I stay out of the kitchen!

I'm a big time savoury monster myself!

Well ladies I've had an odd, scary things happen just now. About 15 minutes ago I was putting together some chicken sandwiches for lunch for the girls and WAM (no warning at all) my mouth starts tingling, a get shaky, and my eye sight blurred hard. I really thought I was going to pass out. I dug my fingernails into my my palms- pain to fight the faint you know? Anyway- it's not really easing at all. I've eaten and have had about 12 oz of water but still feeling off and I'm getting hot and cold flashes. Called my sister in a near panic so that is something happened, she would know. Any of you girls experienced this?? I am trying to keep a level head but I am a bit scared now.

Oh Molly, that is quite scary. Was your AF normal? Can't you be pregnant? Is your sister coming?

 

[Mollykins]

Update: I have finally started to level. Still feel off but definitely better. I ran an internet search for "fainting and endometriosis" Apparently it's a symptom... it affects you blood pressure or some such thing. Tuesday can not come soon enough!

Unfortunately my sister lives another state but she is the only one that isn't working right now (going to university) so I knew she would pick up first ring. If anything would have happened she would have called my OH and everyone necessary. It's most scary to me because of the girls. I don't want to scare my children or "leave them unattended" because I fainted. My AF hasn't been normal but it has be coming around the right time... give or take a few days. I don't think I could be pregnant. AF was here from 3-6 Nov. That is a little short (I'm normally at least 5 days) but it wasn't a light flow. Would it be wrong of me to want to cry for my OH to come home??

Glad you are feeling better. That tuesday appointment will be really useful.
Try to take it easy by then.
