"Ergo the waffles" -- they are called Eggo Waffles that are frozen and toast to serve - I agree, not really up to a high enough standard for needs here - can be very dry. I too think your custard sounds great!

Many hotels in the States now offer a free breakfast that includes waffles - they have pre measured portions of batter which you pour into the waffle iron, close it then rotate it and it automatically times and cooks your waffle - really yummy! I don't know the brand of waffle iron used though - but...

I think a book swap is a great idea although I would advise against having books you wish to keep in the same library, as people often don't read instructions so maybe they won't understand the sticker system either!

I agree with salmoncottage - life happens and you did your best but things don't always work out as we hope. I had a dishwasher break in January and had a big group at the house. Their attitude was great - I couldn't get a replacement until after they had gone. I did make sure I kept in good communi...

I would keep renting it and make sure the company you are selling with have great photos for their website showing it - then if a buyer is really interested they have a good indication from the photos and should be happy about making an appointment to view it that fits with your rental obligations. ...

In my beach house we have an "eclectic" collection of china and I have had several guests comment on how fun it was to see the china pattern from their childhood or other past experiences. It also makes it easy to replace anything that gets broken and guests feel they can relax a bit more ...

Just a word or two of warning - make sure it is microwave safe - I bought some cheap china which was supposedly able to go in the microwave but turned out to heat up the cup rim way before the liquid in the cup - potentially very dangerous. But it was pretty!

Ha Ha Lindisfarne !!!!! I thought I was missing something really big! I am up with 4G but didn't understand how I had fallen behind missing 5G!!! You are absolutely correct in how fast all the techo is moving - if we wait maybe it will just be in the air for all.

I have just received my first Airbnb booking! It all went very smoothly (up to this point) and when I had a question I called the contact specialist with Airbnb and chatted to a rep who was great and solved my problem quickly. I will post my experience as I progress with this - no money received yet...
