I am fascinated by the ham cooked in cherry coke.. Yummy! Did you once post about Pepsi max cherry flavour... I have looked outfor it and can't find it much to my despair!!!

It all sounds amazing and i am sure your guests will love it and will be very well fed!!! Love the homemade things. Do you need us to come down for a trail run? Check that it would be enough he he!!!

Tempting as that idea is... it'd send me mad to do it all twice!

Cherry Pepsi Max. Work of an angel. All the cherry haribo fake flavour but without the sugar I love cherry coke but hateb diet cherry coke as it smells like antifreeze. Cherry pepsi max however is just lush. I've only ever found it in asda. If you go onto mysupermarket.co.uk and type it in a shopping list, it tells you which stores stock it. It really is just as sweet but tangy as haribo and I LOVE haribo tantastics, which are clearly the work of satan due to the diebetes inducing sugar level.

Aaaarrrggghhh I am doing it again. Tallking of food and making myself hungry. Stupid diet. So far managed to successfully lose not a pound. Mainly as I am good all day then freak out on cheese just before bed and sabotaging the entire day. UGH. So. Still 3.5 stone to go and now only 4 months...

You can do it Go for lots of walks, and try eating a heart soup with lentils in as it really fills you up

[MrsBrown]

I want to drive to Asda right now and get some!, I love haribo too and cola cubes and cheery fizzy cola bottle oh and this bar near me does cola cube cocktails.. They are amazing.

If I can find anything that gives me the sugar rush and taste without the sugar/cals I will be in heaven!

I hope they start to do it in cans as when I am dieting I find that a can sometimes suppresses the need for food whereas pouring A glass doesn't do the same. I also like Harley's sugar free jellies, they are like grown up jelly with grown up flavours with about 8 cals per pot. Takes more cals to walk to fridge to get it!!!! Plus good for when everyone has a pudding so you can have something too...

Oh and weight watchers do some eclairs which are low cal but yummy and curly wurlys kept in the fridge aren't too bad and take ages to eat!!!!

I agree with Becky you can do it!!

[poppleminster]

Thanks loads for the support. I will hopefully get there!

Found these on the BHS website. Not sure what the colour will be like but took the risk. They aed 6-9 months for Alfie, age 4 for the twins, age 5 for Elliott and 12 for Ben. A bargain to get 5 cjildren all kitted out for £65!

Wow that is a bargain!!

[MrsC2Be]

Good find, how cute will Alfie look in that?!

[MrsBoucher2B2012]

Wow, so much food you are making me hungry. You are very organised, me and h2b have a few shared google docs to keep all the wedding info in and that is about the most organised thing we have.

What a find on the suits. They will all look adorable.

[poppleminster]

Do I or do I not need two of these?

Need! Just for everyday consumption, sod the wedding!

[poppleminster]

I'm trying to work out how they make them. They are standing in ceramic pots so I assume the trunk is cemented in? They also do lolly ones which must be heavy so it can't be using a florists ball and cocktail sticks! They are £18 each plus postage but must be a way to make one. Ideas please!

A quick search found this http://macsflowers.b...iary-trees.html

Also there are a few you tube videos coming up in a google search of 'how to make sweetie trees'

Hope that helps!

Love the marshmallow tree, also love the ferrero rocher tree yum, yum.

[Helen]

With marshmallows I would use a polystyrene craft ball then cover it in sugarpaste and then use edible glue to stick them on... Who knows if it would work but that is how I would try it first!

[Becky]

They look amazing, you definitely NEED them

I like Helen's idea, that sounds like it could work... are the marshmallows on sticks?
