I don't mind the texture of it, but I know what you mean about some flours being a bit weird to the touch - I'm a bit like that with semolina!

I've got up, not sleeping much anyway and hate lying in bed all day, and Daisy hates it too, when it gets to being after midday I start getting hassled to get up!!! So I did and then went back to bed!!! I've got my wee chore done and going to curl up in my beanbag and maybe do a wee bit sewing or crochet or something. It's like flu but without the very high temperature. <br />Donna, can I have another extension please!!!!<br />Susan, what gluten free flour do you use, is it different to the rice flour stuff? I can't use that because of the texture (Asperger's thing) and it seems there's something in it that is triggering my allergies too, Autism means your body can react in a totally different way or even the opposite way to all sorts of things. I'm meant to be looking at buying a flour mill so I can grind things like maize, oats, chickpeas to make my own flour. It's an expensive, complicated business having all these food allergies!!!<br />Glad you got your teapot printed off Dot, I'm just using cheap pencils, they're sort of ok, pretty rubbish, it takes a lot of work to get colour from a lot of them and you can't darken them by going over more, it's one shade or nothing!<br />Love Brenda xxBrenda Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17319199253488833078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-51265957087394655682015-05-02T09:58:28.967+01:002015-05-02T09:58:28.967+01:00Aw how sweet that you get all embarrassed in front...Aw how sweet that you get all embarrassed in front of Dave!!

If it is you must keep stopping to look at it as the colour is amazing, isn't it?<br />I am not a lover of new technology. It takes me ages to remember how to do something and drives the rest of the family mad as they have to keep showing me over and over again until it finally sinks in. It also makes them all laugh when I have a quiet polite word or two with the laptop etc. if it is not behaving as I think it should be. (Ok, maybe I actually shout and swear at it!) You have learnt so much since your very first post on your blog, haven't you? You are allowed to get upset when things don't go right. Isn't it funny how we all seem to get nervous/shy with those closest to us about the strangest things, you are not alone at feeling like that with Dave. They are the ones that see us "warts and all" so why do we feel like this? Does anyone have an answer? <br />I hope you had a great fish and chip supper with Paul. Have a great weekend with safe travels and lots of fun tomorrow. : ) Take care xMrs Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16179962719631818018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-91464210289821079002015-05-02T08:09:42.269+01:002015-05-02T08:09:42.269+01:00P.S managed to get ma teapot printed just got the ...P.S managed to get ma teapot printed just got the cheap pencils but gonae have a go..xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775023439020643243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-13148949613208351922015-05-02T08:07:22.207+01:002015-05-02T08:07:22.207+01:00Morning Brenda hope yer better the day.

You aren't the only one that struggles with technology, at least you've got a lot further than I have, you should be very proud with all you've achieved, I wouldn't know where to start in setting up a blog. It took me 18 months to get how to comment on yours. Bet you were only nervous with Dave because you thought you'd have the giggles. What does it matter? At least you give us something to laugh about. Looking forward to Sunday's C&C to see your new products.

I can almost smell them. I have figured out a lot of things with computer but I am lucky that several family members are brilliant if I need help.

I use to train people on software systems and I know the fear, the desperation and the upset that can be caused, and the amount of people that use to say, 'I'm so stupid'! I always said 'How can you be stupid when you don't know?' I had all the patience in the world for people wanting to try and learn, whatever they wish to. The greatest satisfaction is when their face would light up after a little training, and they would say, 'WOW, that's great!' So well done you Barbara, very proud of you! :) xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07015158595591109959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-57535367179469270572015-05-01T21:02:31.227+01:002015-05-01T21:02:31.227+01:00Hi Barbara, Just realised the time when I got to t...Hi Barbara, Just realised the time when I got to the chish and fips...haven't had mine yet!!!<br />As for technology...I studied Computer Programming when I was 32...was really good at it too, but that was all about designing computers and programmes to work for other people. I too can turn the air blue with frustration when programmes don't work or simple communications just have a mind of their own...I really wonder sometimes who wrote the programming!!! Unfortunately The big IT guys release programmes and patches before they have ironed out the bugs in them (I know this for sure as my Sister has to solve these problems on a daily basis...she in a computer engineer and analyst - she can turn the air positively black!!!) So don't beat yourself up. You ARE doing brilliantly with ALL that you do. I would need to hire about thirty helpers to do what you do and that would probably just be in the office never mind anywhere else! Ok...off to see if one of my family will cook me some food, I'm sure we have some lol <br />Hugs<br />Emma xxEmma Burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07056896325074249077noreply@blogger.com
