Morning my darlings! well its time for a new thread and if you were busy shopping at Daylesford (because why would you shop anywhere else?) and missed anything heres a quick rundown..

Josie has been doing a '30 days of Autumn outfits' on the gram but it was more like '30 days of awful outfits' as every outfit she wore was hideous.

She has been flogging the Financial times and harping on about how its full of great and informative articles and has saved all the articles she is going to read. Not sure why they need to read it when know-it-all Charlie already knows everything;)

They are getting a new Aga but cant decide on the colour. Char Char wants green to go with the green walls and green tiles etc etc.

She wasn't very happy with Char Char when he informed her his yogurt cost £6 a pot but he tried to reason with her saying he's saving loads of money as doesn't drink anymore therefore he buys the expensive yogurts instead!

She also had a moan at him when he brought 'expensive' leeks for the trivet and could he not use parsnips instead? no he couldn't he told her.

Char Char got his own back though buy cooking a couple of meals with mushrooms in and Josie hates mushrooms!🤭

If that wasn't bad enough he only gave her Anthropologie autumn mug to the charity shop. The doorknob!🤣

They ended the week telling us pheasants all about the farming problems with supermarkets (we know we read the news), what we should be eating (organic food obv), and that we should be saving and investing our money for our pension (really we didn't know that):rolleyes:

Anyway darlings Im off for a Oat milk chai latte at Daylesford, but please do carry on the chat.

Marvelous as always @coconochanel !

I’ll also repose my question from last thread as we ran out of time. Why were Josie’s cookies so damn runny?!? Too many farm fresh organic products still not working?

I haven’t seen this particular boondoggle, but she never follows recipes because she’s too lazy/know-it-all to follow the recipe precisely…and when she Fs up baking, her comments come alive with people telling her baking relies on chemical reactions, so she has to follow the recipe, and I think she does it for engagement, too.
 
LOL! maybe her mom baked them this time! :LOL:

on another note...she looks so bored here...kinda disrespectful to the financial advisor who came out to talk to them. Her leg hiked up and twiddling with her fingers....and Charlie just looks dimwitted here... :LOL:

Finally!.

The last thing I’d do is put velvet pumpkins on/right up against greasy buttery biscuits …

I feel like cookies recipes are a bit hit and miss but I like cutting my dough and putting it in the freezer for an one or two to prevent that.

I saw in a recipe I did that I had to put the cut dough in the fridge for an hour before cooking - I wondered why at the time so yes maybe this is the key to success

@kale-supremacist you have solved Josie’s cooking conundrum!. It is to stop the cookie ending up in a “buttery blob” 😂

Charlie irritated the crap out of me, as soon as they sat down to have the “professional” give pointers on finances he opens his gob and starts droning on, I’d say Josie was bored of him and his spiel as she has probably heard it all before, I would have edited him right out.
