Project 365 20th - 26th October 2013

Sunday

Attempted to make yoghurt with hemp milk today in the yoghurt maker, but it didn't work. So rather than waste the milk I added jelly crystals to it to turn it into mousse. It was all boiled in the same pan with the same jelly and poured into two containers, For some strange reason one separated ans one didn't when they were setting. But both tasted good.





Monday

Saw TBAM with her mini stuffed pumpkins. I did not have any mini ones but I did have a big one. So I gave it 5 mins in the microwave. Stuffed it with some cooked wholemeal rice ( not brave enough to put raw in) mixed with a vegetarian haggis and gave it another 12 mins in the microwave.
It wasn't unpleasant but have to say it wasn't overly tasty either. Maybe need to add something extra if I ever do it again.


Tuesday

On the way back from Glasgow we stopped off at Whitelee Wind Farm. We have never been to a wind farm before, and I have to say I was surprised how in a weird sort of way it was quite aesthetically beautiful, very scenic and nothing like as noisy as I had envisaged.





Wednesday

We found the little chap at the fishery, he did not seem to be in very good health and was making no attempt to move or jump even when we prodded him.






Thursday

Fifi had news homework to do for school in the morning. So she looked at the BBC news website and decided to do the story on Ineos because her mum grew up in Grangemouth and the view from our back door at the time was the BP plant as it use to be called.







Friday

Granddad made Bob a certificate this morning. He loves to help and quite happily use the shredder all night if I had enough paperwork.Bob loves it when granddad does things like this for him.It has got his proper name on it but U have changed it for the blog.





Saturday

Was sent this t-shirt from a company called T Shirt Printing . Was approached by e-mail a while ago and I was offered a t-shirt with my blog logo on. I have to say I was sceptical from knowing how I made all the pictures low quality and then made them into an equally low quality collage when I saved the final result.
I was very pleasantly surprised at how well it had been reproduced, you could make all the pictures out, my logo was well readable and he has even put my blog address on the bottom (I did ask him if he could) . All I need now is a blogging event or two to wear my t-shirt to. They come in a huge array of colours and sizes. Would make a great present with your favourite 365 picture on.



I was under no obligation to tell you about the t-shirt but I have to say I am very pleased with it. Will need to buy a new one if I ever change my blog header.

    1. home ade yoghurt is so so simple,less than 2 mins to set up and walk off and leave it. go back 6-10 hrs later and stick it in the fridge, it really is that simple.

    1. I could lend you a personal paper shredder but he comes with VERY specific feeding instructions.

  11. It might have been because it was in the microwave and not roasted? I also put blue cheese in, which was quite strong in comparison to the mild pumpkin flavour.

    Thanks for linking up to Project 365.
