How tall was The Giant Amazon when he knocked on your door with the coffee? Did he say "Fee-fi-fo-fum!"? I do not know if Lord Peregrine is an Englishman but I bet he was hiding in case The Giant Amazon followed up with "I smell the blood of an Englishman!" Scary.
Good old Amazon. I must investigate it here though I think if we order it comes from Germany and takes ages. Love the multi coloured pins but was disappointed to see they weren't smarties!
I thought it was going to be something like chocolate. Dressmakers/long quilters pins - bit of a let down eh?? Single colour (bright yellow) are my choice. Tried those shiny multicoloured ones once.......wrong choice for multicoloured floral fabric. They got lost amongst the flowers!
Chocolate - too dangerous!!! My old pins were tiny little things that came to me when my mother in law died 35 years ago. They were fiddly to use and quite corroded. Now in the scrap metal bin! Let me know if you try the fishy recipe. I never make it the same way each time. Juat depends on what I have available but the basics stay the same.
Don’t overdose on the coffee ...... you’ll get jittery and heart palpitations and your sewing will be all over the place !!!!! You might end up with a sewn up leg hole and an open crutch..... ooooer missus !!! XXXX
I have always kept my coffee in the freezer as it is supposed to keep it fresher, however, at the rate we get through it, it probably doesn't make much difference.
Although I am quite used to talking to myself, any comments on my posts are very welcome, provided they are not abusive. I do reply to them so please check back. It's good to talk (!)

ReplyDeleteI didn't see him. I was up in my turret room spinning and sewing.
DeleteWere you singing "Greensleeves" and looking wistful?
DeleteWhilst combing out my long tresses...
DeleteI hope you had used "Head and Shoulders".
DeleteYou could open your own coffee shop?
ReplyDeleteNot letting anyome else get their hands on it!

ReplyDeleteLove the multi coloured pins but was disappointed to see they weren't smarties!
They are easier for me to see now!

Forgot to say thanks for the fishy recipe.

Fatal these days Amazon- so much I quite fancy and that;s without the books.
ReplyDeleteIt is too easy to just click and wait for the postman!
DeleteI have never used Amazon (or any other delivery service) but am sorely tempted at this locked in time. Luckily nothing I absolutely have to buy!
ReplyDeleteWe only resort to Anazon when we can't get what we need over here. A small island with few retail choices 😏
DeleteWhat is impressing me is that you had a whole empty freezer drawer! Mine is filled to the gills. Nice pins, by the way!
ReplyDeleteHugs, x.
Ah, but you should see the other freezer! Can't squeeze in any more there 😉

ReplyDeleteWell, if that happens I certainly shall not be posting any photos here!
DeleteMy immediate reaction was "Why freeze coffee in vacuum packaging?"

DeleteWhat a lot of coffee! I love those pins; I have about a dozen of those pretty ones. Can't remember where I got them from...
