Why have I never thought of cutting lettuce with scissors? I always use scissors to cut bacon and chicken breasts, but never thought of using them for salad. What a good idea

Thanks for the salad info Kerri, come to think of it a friend of mine has given me salad cut small like that in pitta bread.....she must have been watching Jamie Oliver too. I have to confess to never actually seeing a programme with him in...I'm not sure why, I don't dislike him. His programmes must clash with something else I watch.

I like Nigella, though she's not been on tv for a while. I have three of her books but lack the courage to try her recipes! Love reading them though I did try her muffins once, which were a disaster. I don't even know why I tried it, because I don't really like muffins. I'm a fairy cake person!

Speaking food, I haven't had any yet today. Time for breakfast I think - mmm, Cocopops! (and I'm not joking)
