I usually lose fillings on soft food/sweets not hard stuff, probably an age thing lol
Woke up here this morning to the first fog/mist of the winter didn't really clear till lunchtime.
Was woken up at 8-30 by the door bell, it was a lad about 6 years old delivering an amazon parcel, I double checked that his mum was at the end of the path in her car, I thought that amazon has started using child labour [removed by moderator - use of language].2024 The year of the general election...the time for change is coming 💡 -
I’ve got an appointment at the dentist the week after next.. I need to check they are still open during lockdown. I’ve been getting a bit of tooth ache recently. It’s my own fault as during the first lockdown I was eating a lot of sugary snacks and chocolate, so quite worried I’m going to need fillings done.
Today has been a lazy Sunday. I couldn’t get to sleep last night and was up until 4am. I got up at 12 today, had brunch, had a look on bbc news and did my own 2 minute silence. I put a wash on and did an hour or so of my online course. Then I started watching ‘The Walking Dead’, I’m on season 9 at the moment. Going to have fajitas for tea, so going to make them soon. Then I’ll watch a film with my boyfriend and try and get to sleep earlier than last night and get up earlier tomorrow too! -
@Marie88 I can’t speak for all of them but my dentist is open to past patients but you need to do a few things before you go in like have your temperature checked, sanitise your hands and wash your mouth out with mouthwash. Also mine is only letting one patient in at a time so you need to wait outside until your pre booked appointment.
-
I absolutely love fajitas @marie88, were they nice?
I hope you got a better night of sleep last night -
@66Mustang I’ve checked with my dentist and they are open but will contact me the day before to make sure I don’t have any symptoms. They didn’t mention having temperature taken or using mouthwash! Maybe I’ll have to do that though! I’m not looking forward to it I’ve always hated the dentist but good to get it out the way!@Tori_Scope I didn’t actually end up having them, I had something easy from the freezer instead! Probably have them at the weekend, I always buy frozen chicken pieces and onion and pepper as makes it easier and then I don’t have to worry about them going off quickly as I find the dates on Tesco fresh food aren’t great (I usually get a delivery every week as I live in a small town and our local supermarket is really expensive!)

@Marie88 it may just be my dentist that has those procedures. Also I forgot to mention the dentist was all PPEd up with a breathing mask on as well which I can understand given they are working on peoples mouths.@woodbine not going to say whether I agree but the word you used to describe a small person is seen as not politically correct these days!
I have just been for a drive and now am settling down for the night! What’s everyone else up to! -

No offence taken here @woodbine I can’t speak for everyone but personally I am only offended by intent to offend not accidental use of a word!
-
Don't worry @woodbine! As @66Mustang said, I'm sure we all know you didn't intend to cause any offence.
Once I've finished work I'm going to decorate a Toblerone Tart I made yesterday and left to set overnight. It looks good, so I'm hoping it'll turn out well. -
@Tori_Scope I’ve never heard of a Toblerone tart but as someone who likes Toblerone it sounds interesting......... please share some pictures of it if you can!
-
I use frozen veg a lot as well @Marie88, so that I don't end up throwing things away. I try to eat vegetarian on the whole, and I actually made halloumi fajitas for my tea last night. Delicious!
-
I will try and remember to take some before we devour it @66Mustang Decoration is not my strong point, but I'm going to give piping a go.
This is the recipe I used. -
Wow that looks really nice!!!

Save me a slice of your toblerone tart please!Online Community Co-ordinator

Not the best decoration in the world, but pretty happy with how it turned out! It tastes delicious, and that's the most important thing.
I'll post you a slice @Cher_Scope -
That looks really nice
-
Thank you @66Mustang! My housemates and I are taking it in turns to bake during lockdown to keep us going. They're both good bakers so there was some pressure to make something that was at least edible I've got no idea what I'll make next time it's my turn...
-
@Tori_Scope That looks amazing well done you
Try a lemon drizzle cake next or any type as cheescake as they are quite easy. Or an ice cream flan just do biscuit base then buy ice cream eg vanilla and add stuff like choc chips fruit mix it all up with the ice cream and put on top of the biscuit base and freeze
