He was suitably impressed. You can be sure if my cats were nearly out of food I'd be willing to walk somewhere to bring it back. We are only about two miles from the nearest store and maybe three miles into the center of town, but there are times when the road is nasty enough that I have frightened myself even driving home from the shop with the 4x4 truck. <br />We are meant to have more snow and colder weather before the end of the week. Winter is already very tiresome. I bought an extra bag of cat crunchies today!<br />Is cornflour the same as corn meal or is it finer?Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-3561010509056426492010-01-04T11:03:51.062-08:002010-01-04T11:03:51.062-08:00P.S.

Oh my and more snow forecasted!? I know that snowbound-stress but yours sounds much worse than I've experienced here. Sounds like England is an ice skating rink right now. Oooohh, I love the snow but hate the ice. I refuse to drive in it, well, because you really can't! I wish I could air-drop you some supplies :) but it's a GOOD thing you have a large amount of wood for heating. I hope you're able to get your essentials soon. My thoughts are with you :) Stay warm, hang in there!Elizabeth Rhiannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07910474336835656519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-14389361150787112412010-01-04T10:57:05.115-08:002010-01-04T10:57:05.115-08:00Thank you for the recipe BB.I shall write that one...Thank you for the recipe BB.I shall write that one down.<br /><br />I hope that your menfolk make it safely home through the snow.Dartford Warblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352965211143836326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-85755964907830023792010-01-04T07:26:13.381-08:002010-01-04T07:26:13.381-08:00Cor, this sounds divine!
