I don't know if it's a good idea, another one I'm trying is to open the oldlings and the new post in a different tab.

charlottechristy Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hey Tootch...oooh, I love throws. Good luck with making that. Yikes, I would never be able to finish that.

hoochatootch Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 thanks! the throw is from cath kidston (drool drool) i fell in love with it when i first saw it and saved the picture to my "ideas" file (because i love decorating so much - i just click and save when i see something i like and just label it by the name of the site - like a digital scrapbook i guess) anyway - it was just to expensive to buy (it's not on the site any more btw) it's just granny squares so i figured i could attempt it... and now i am realizing that i forgot to get the light pink!

silver Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Thats lovely Tootch!!! Its Shrove Tuesday - also known as pancake day!! In the old days people used to burn the food left in their cupboards, then make the sign of the cross on their forehead from the ash that was left "Shriven Tuesday" They had to use up eggs, etc as they were fasting through Lent, which starts tomorrow (Ash Wednesday). They do it much better sur le continent, and of course at the various Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) parades around the world. In Britain we just get excited about pancakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendi Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrove_Tuesday Eggs, milk and sugar had to be got rid of before lent - which starts tomorrow on Ash Wednesday - so they used them to make pancakes - to get all the rich food out of their houses!!! What an educational place this is!!!! :roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
