My name is Amy and I am 27. I am engaged and live with my partner of 7 years. This will be our second pregnancy as we sadly miscarried at the back endof 2007. I am really nervous still but taking each day in our stride.I wonder if you ever do stop worrying?? Anyways, good luck to all you mums to be out there!!!

darlinburnett - Wednesday, 11 June OK, Tomato Pie Recipe-
I baked pie shell 3-4 tomatoes sliced and patted dry (I remove the seeds and goopy stuff too) 1/2 cup of mayo 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh basil (I add more) 1/4 cup of finely diced onion 5 slices of cooked bacon crumbled 12 butter crackers crushed 1 tablespoon of melted butter
Preheat oven to 375. In a small bowl, mix the mayo, parmesan, basil, and onion and set aside. Layer the tomato slices in the pie shell, salting and peppering each layer. Spread the mayo/cheese mixture over the top. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of that. Mix the melted butter with the cracker crumbs and sprinkle that on top of the bacon. Cover it with aluminum foil and bake for @ 35 min. Remove the foil for the last 10-15 minutes so crumbs get browned. So good! Peach will love it : )
And it just occurred to me that maybe you use metric measurements so I hope this still makes sense. Have a great week!
daisymum2be - Monday, 9 June Omg what is it with people!? As soon as you get preggo it's like "Ohh, you know the vomit, dont you?", "Ohh say goodbye to your sleep - you know babies keep you up at night!", "Scrub your nipples with a toothbrush everyday...", "I know someone who's baby died at 8 months pregnant...", "Dont eat eggs, i know someone who died because they ate an egg,", "Dont touch the cat because your leg might fall off..." it's like SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!!!!!! I told some1 i barely knew that we're planning baby number 2 for january and she said, "Daisy. Just practice with one for a bit, eh." *slap* Lol opinions are like arseholes - everyone's got one. hehe x
daisymum2be - Monday, 9 June That's great, how exciting! So are you worrying less now? Things are great with me thanks! Charlie boy's sleeping in his own bed all night long now which is a RELIEF! And i had some wine and a romantic meal with my boyfriend while buba slept upstairs last night so i'm dead happy today! And organised! Weeee! x x
daisymum2be - Thursday, 5 June Hellooooo! How are things? x
darlinburnett - Tuesday, 3 June Orange jello sounds heavenly too- it is already so hot here, 93 degrees!!!! Vinegar? hahahahahahaha Your friends and hubby must be relieved that that craving has subsided! Speaking of vinegar- when you were a kid, did you ever make one of those volcanos where the "lava" is made by mixing vinegar and baking soda? My eleven-year-old son thought it might be exciting to eat a spoonful of baking soda and then chase it with a shot of vinegar, just to see what would happen....>sigh< Projectile vomit is just not a strong enough description.... I feel certain that my younger brother put him up to this... I can't wait 'til he has kids >: ) You have much excitement to look forward to, should Peach turn out to be a boy!
