@Helcat_42  Hello and welcome from me too

As it neared the top of the grade, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, "I—think—I—can, I—think—I—can." It reached the top by drawing on bravery and then went on down the grade, congratulating itself by saying, "I thought I could,  I thought I could."

Good morning to all you happy sewers ...

Is it sewers, sewists or something else entirely   :thinking:


Well on first reading, I thought you'd "happy swearers"  :thinking:

Welcome and looking forward to seeing your makes!

To be fair I do that too, especially when I realise that that the neatest hood I have ever sewn (in stretch stitch) needs to be unpicked because I forgot to turn the body the right way round before I attached it ...

Welcome to TSP.  Definitely need to see some makes.

Chocolate risotto?   That sounds interesting.  :thinking:

Missed this one earlier -

In essence it is chocolate rice pudding (with risotto rice) but richer as you make it with whole milk, sugar, cinnamon and cocoa powder, once you've brought to the boil simmer for 20 odd minutes and then add grated chocolate at the end (I used Lindt 70%). I did find it tasted a lot nicer of reheating the second day for some reason.

Oh wow, might have to try that!  Lindt is probably my fave choc

Yes please!   I’m sure I’m not the only one.  I have chocolate in the cupboard…always have because it’s so useful in cooking.  ;)
