It gave me severe diarrhoeaLove bok choi. Very disappointed in choi sum, though - fibrous and tastes of nothing at all....
Hi @liam1955. I'm so sorry to hear that your mum had Alzheimer's. My mum-in-law had the same thing. It's heartbreaking, isn't it, to see the person you love slowly eroding. But she used to love cooking, too, both before and afterwards. I loved her to bits and still think of her often, although it's over 10 years since she passed away. But I can think of her with a smile nowadays.@mo53 - .. Mum and I used to bake every week, although it was like teaching a "child" due to the Alzheimer's
@liam1955 you must make sure you watch episode 2 on Saturday. It's amazing what they are making.

@liam1955 it's been cold with showers of hailstones today here. I'm going to have to do a bit of shopping but I really want to go swimming again. I'll aim to do both I think. I've just seen the time. Good night, sleep well
@liam1955 yes I thought it was good. But it always makes me hungry . I'm glad you asked I've been meaning to ask you if you have watched , Bake Off Creme de la Creme on BBC 2? It's teams of pastry chefs competing so it is all cakes and pastries?
@liam1955 we love you just the way you are.Yes. It is very much soul destroying. I cared/looked after my Mum for 9 years and although it is nearly 6 years ago that she died - I will never be 'me' again that was!!
Hi. Firstly I had to jion again with new password, now I have to keep logging in with my email and password every time, bothering my eyes as couple weeks ago had second eye op and it's frustrating. Don't know what's going on. Bye the way I'm gonna try your crab and Spring o ions on lidl bread when I can get out, lidl is 2 buses away from me and still got bad throat & chest, and some nasty side effects came out yesterday, from steroids I think. Anyway good health and bgs to you allDo you mean your signing up to a new account each time? Or having to log in with existing username & password?
No, you won 't ever be the same, but you will come to a place where you can remember more good times than bad. You should be very proud of yourself for having looked after your mum for so many years - many people throw in the towel long before that, no matter how much they love the person they're caring for. It's a hard job which only gets more difficult as time goes by, made even more devastating by the fact that the person you love looks the same outwardly, but has disappeared inside. It takes a special kind of person to be able to handle that with love and compassion. Your mum was very lucky to have you caring for her.Yes. It is very much soul destroying.
