It’s that I didn’t know what the knife was for. I think you are having a different conversation to me - I did not know what the knife was for. I’m not worried about him using a table knife.
It turns out the instructions weren’t clear and the school was in fact providing the herbs and spices
I love that as I read this out loud he was chucking the pastry from hand to hand 🤦♀️
I know what a table knife is. I did not know how they intended my son should use a kitchen knife “for the job”
I wish I’d asked you before we made the dough!
Also. Food tech homework that meant I had to run out and buy LARD of all things. Lard.
I am really earning his GCSE

It was the best day of my children’s lives and I have never spent so much money on a day out before or after. Unless my wedding counted as a day out.

Equally popular to the time I tested a face mask made out of (clean!) cat litter and also used home-made deodorant for a week. MAN I really paid my dues, didn’t I?
If you’re wondering, the baked beans thing was not for the bbc. It was in the long long ago. And it was also one of my most popular articles 😅
I’d just like to remind the universe that, while I was once commissioned to taste test and rate 17 different varieties of baked beans, no one has ever commissioned me to taste test Easter eggs. And I feel that my skill set* really skews towards Easter eggs
*strong personal preference
Plus, we’ll be talking about spring spending. As the weather gets a (little) better, does it get you spending more? Heading out to a beer garden? Buying daffodils? Getting garden supplies? What are your spring spends?
It’s me on #wakeuptomoney tomo. So tell me - have you noticed the conflict in Iran affecting you yet? Booking travel, thinking about remortgaging, filling your tank, watching your investments?
Every time! Or in a locked school on a Friday night when you bought the very best free-range chicken!
My eldest did that recipe once! 😂
I have another son at a different high school and they buy the ingredients. I don’t know how it’s decided! I have now been told that I don’t have to supply all the spices, which is good as I had no idea how to send 1/4 tsp of all the different ones in!
