Remember my Instant Pot post from Tuesday? It seems everyone who has one loves it and uses it. I am still on the fence, so will wait until the Black Friday sale in November and revisit the idea. I think I can manage to live without one until then.
I am still working away at decluttering. I have been trying to sell a number of unwanted items online with mixed results. We have a local Facebook site for our area. I have to shake my head at some people. They are all gung-ho wanting your items and then just muck you about. Other people its a simple transaction that goes by without a fuss. Having a yard sale is a no, no where we live, another one of those delightful rules we must abide by........
Loving Netflix still. We are now on season 9 on Midsumer Murders, and every episode we say, "we didn't see that coming!!" We have yet to figure the plot out on any of those episodes........LOL
My mam had a big birthday last week. Here is one of her cakes; my younger brother had this one made for her:
When you ask her how she is; she always says "I'm fine." And she is always cleaning, that's why there are all the cleaning items on the cake. Love Mrs. Brown.

Belated Birthday wishes to your Mum, a great cake. Decluttering is such a major job and takes so much longer than you anticipate. I donated so much stuff to charity in the end it was easier and quicker.
I kept going back to your instant pot post and came to the same conclusion as you - wait for Black Friday. I think I may even wait until my trusty slow cooker gives up the ghost but I din't see that happening any time soon.
love the cake! I am a big fan of Mrs. Brown too
yes, I haven't rushed out to buy one of those cookers either! I am really finding I do ok with a stove and an oven! Happy Birthday to your mother!
I think the instant pot is a bit pricey - I have a crockpot which I only use a couple times a month. Plus I usually only cook for two people, and often just one. AND my small appliance cupboard is overflowing with items I rarely use. I think I've talked myself out of it :)
A very funny cake!
LOVE the cake. Happy Birthday to her. Hugs B
I love mrs brown too! I'd of loved a cake like that one
Maybe rent a spot at a market just a one off and see how much you sell.
Yes selling stuff online can be a huge pain. I don't do it. Everyone wants your stuff but no one wants to pay
Love the cake too! Big fan of Mrs. Brown here.
I loved Midsomer Murders.
God bless.
Happy Birthday to your dear Mum and good luck with the decluttering - I am just giving most of it to the Opportunity Shop - just easier. I love Netflix - so easy to use.
