Just had a thought !! think of all the bugs that crawling around in your mattress, were surround by creapy crawlies every where,

Time to turn in - got a busy few weeks in work,what with my colleague on holiday for 3 weeks.

I think the paper story was a load of porkies ,They were in the flour!!!!!!!!!!!!


Weevils!!!!

I was using flour for baking a Christmas cake one year and thankfully used the new flour first . When looked in the packet I had in the cupboard for a while the flour appeared to be "moving".

I emptied the packet onto a plate and stared and stared and it definately had something in it.

I rang up the brand in question, and they said that it would not be the flour but the paper it came in - the same things that are in old books - book worms! She said they would not harm me. Well they got put in the bin and each new bag of flour is promptly put into a plastic tupperware container.

Weavells (wrong spelling)
I remember finding an old tin box in one of dads kitchen cupbords one day many years ago, and these llittle insects were crawling in a peice of old weetabix (Shudder!!!!!) I believe they live in all flourery food.

We have been eating insects for centuries, I am sure they wont do us any harm.

Do you ever use Cocchinnel (sp) natural red food colouring - this is ground beetles!

Oh Lord I shook a load of Paprika on our lunch (I won't tell anyone )lol

Have you really managed to stop eating chocolate yet, did Oh comments work
if so how did you do it!!!!
OH buy's me chocloate when I'm feeling low. but puts it on the highest shelf in the cupboard , and sometimes the effort of climbing ladders and depending on how desperate I needed it. I will be lazy and stand on a kitchen chair.(so far have had no accidents)

They are moulded into chocolate too
or is that what hubby has made up to stop me eating chocolate !!
