I could probably supply you! Like you I had 10 boxes in the freezer and I've just taken delivery of 6 boxes of cookies. Having discovered you can eat the cookies straight from the freezer they're not safe there. In fact, they're crisper straight from the freezer.Completely agree!
Edit to add - I’m cross as yet again I forgot to save today’s DGF cake to watch GBBO with.
I got one from the discharge response team when I was released after my surgery on my spine. Trouble was the seat on mine was tilted forward and, without much sensation in my legs and feet I kept sliding off it! That one looks much better.Ann, do you have occupational therapists on the islands? They're not just for occupational stuff, but when they were working with Mum, it was all about her living independently and critically, safely at home, even with her challenges. Some of their ideas were just fabulous.
They suggested things like using a basket (a bit like a chip basket) in the saucepan when she was boiling her potatoes. When cooked, she could turn off the heat, lift the basket from the pan (and get on with her meal), then deal with the pan of water late - ideally when cooled.
If you can, maybe see if you could achieve a referral? If that's not forthcoming from your GP, the Age UK also offer such services.
Listening to your challenges, I reckon a perching stool would suit you well. You can do anything from nearly ignoring it, to just leaning back onto it momentarily, to letting it take your weight whilst supervising something cooking. And of course, it needn't be restricted to use in the kitchen.
Mum's was very much like this one, with removable arms: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Multi-use-...36563970&sprefix=perching+stool,aps,-1&sr=8-5

(can’t eat my usual chia pudding as the seeds would get stuck in my tooth socket)

Thank goodness you can still have your coconut porridge at breakfast- that’s pretty much a perfect food in this situation I expect.

We have got a jar opener we bought from one of those shonky inserts that get put in magazines for $10.00, it fits several standard jars.There are some ingenious living aids out there. Mum was dead against all such things until she tried a couple and almost immediately felt more secure in performing tasks that had previously been a bit daunting.
Mine's been doing that to me too! I'm blaming the weather or the changeof clocks!!Black coffee all morning. 30 min yoga stretches and a couple of dog walks.
L- pate on lc toast.
Mid aft- DGF cake and tea.
Hilly dog walk and 30 min Hiit session.
D- pork tenderloin cooked sous vide, mushroom and blue cheese sauce, broccoli. Found some of last years blackberries in the freezer so blackberry ice cream for pud.
Bg is 7 after all that which has made me feel quite downhearted. Was hoping for a lot lower.
I haven't tried the lemon ones yet - they are always sold out when I remember to try and order them - I think they are bringing out the christmas ones soon so I might just wait until then and order a few and save on postage and I still have some supplies in the freezer ...I wish you hadn’t told me that! I still haven’t tried the cookies, now I’m thinking I’d better not.
I do still have loads of cakes in the freezer so I still have supplies, but I only allow myself one a day and I’d already eaten it by GBBO sadly.

It make it a breeze to get the child proof lid of these tablets although you still need to put some effort in to get it of. Because I do it with bottle upside down to get the lid off, I have to be careful that I do spill 100 little blue tablets everywhere.
My partner has the same problem with large jars, she cant grip both handles with one hand.I've had various tools to try to open jars and none have been very successful for me. Just got limp wrists,
