Yes I do know that. Been through it so often. My Mum passed away just before my birthday but she'd written a card and asked one of the nurses to post it so I'd get it for my birthday. I can't decide what was worse - no card or getting that card 2 days after her funeral. Stuck with me a long time that. I was only 27 when she died - she was 60. I'd expected her to be around a few years longer than than.Oh, Maglil, those days when the normal run of decades is broken. They're heart wrenching. I remember them so well from when my Mum passed away. I'd say to myself "it's only a card", but it was her card. No point telling you it eases with time as you know that, but today that knowledge doesn't help.
Take it steady.
Aww bless you, it’s so hard missing people on special occasions isn’t it? This time of year also adds to the pain, I lost my mum on Christmas Eve 15 years ago, she was only 57, it does make you realise how precious life is though.Yes I do know that.

I'm having them tonight too.Just had some omni noodles (first time ever), tossed in olive oil with chillies, garlic and a splash of soy sauce with prawns. Omg, it was fabulous, very tasty, took me literally 3 minutes. The omni noodles are 8 carbs per portion and they tasted lovely. They are now on my low(ish) carb meal list.
You confused me for a moment. I was wondering what on earth meat fish eggs were. 8 had visions of a kind of scotch egg stuffed with caviar of some kind.Still pigging out on meat fish eggs plus an avocado and a slab of pâté every day, my only significant carb intake is smallish quantities of green salad, cauliflower and broccoli and about 6 cherry tomatoes a day
I'm having them tonight too.
I find they are the closest to spaghetti. You can make cracking stir fries with them too.I wasn't expecting much to be honest but they are yummy.
Hi your weekend sounds great. No I put LC jam in bottom like I do with the fruit in the clafoutis recipe but that sounds like an idea worth trying! Maybe next time I’ll try it in the middle! Putting jam at the bottom meant when warmed and taken out and put upside down in a bowl they looked like mini jam puddings!
Used Diet dr raspberry jam recipe and cooled it. Then clafoutis sponge mix from recipe booklet but increased mix by 50% to make 12 good sized puddings and also replaced 10% of ground almonds with psyllium husk to produce a more cakey texture and added a teaspoon of baking powder. Think will make more jam next time, keep excess in fridge and add to pudding when reheated when serving to make it more jammy as the cake mix absorbs a lot of the jam! I got on scaleswith trepidation this morning after feeling so naughty yesterday but no change and more importantly bgs as usual so happy.My mouth is watering at the thought. I have to try these.

I use ph in the lemon drizzle too and it definitely produces a better cake crumb texture.Thanks for the tips, I’ll add them to my CopyMeThat notes for the clafoutis i wouldn’t have thought of adding psyllium husk to a cake mix.
I’ve made the raspberry chia jam before and thought it was pretty good, and still have some raspberries in the freezer so its definitely on my list again.
Got to say I rather like the look of them. Wee blob of cream cheese icing on top?My mouth is watering at the thought. I have to try these.
The recipe I used is the clafoutis recipe from the recipe booklet I pulled together from this thread - see the file page 33. I just used the Diet Doctor raspberry jam instead of the fruit and also I have adapted the clafoutis sponge to make it more spongey by replacing 10% of the ground almonds with psyllium husk and adding a teaspoon of baking powder. To make 12 cupcakes/puddings I increased the clafoutis sponge by 50% . wasnt sure if you had had a copy of the booklet so putting it on this reply for in case!Good morning all.
@shelley262 -- those sponge cakes/clafoutis look to die for.
