US: What are you trying to wash off your chicken when you wash it?!

Genuine question because a) you can't wash the actual flesh away obviously so there will always be raw chicken on your chicken 🤔 b) cooking at high temperatures until properly cooked through is what kills the bacteria, hence why we don't eat pink chicken and c) washing chicken is just the most disgusting thought 🤢…

Anyone like Thai food…

So, it is not worth to cook it at home. However, my husband takes me to Thai restaurant sometimes but they are quite expensive and t...

Creamy chicken orzo

I made this orzo recipe for the first time tonight. Both my kids ate it. 😂 So, I thought I would share! It was pretty easy to make and only took about 30 minutes.

Gyms w/creche in north Bristol?

Anyone know of any!? I originally joined Nuffield stoke Gifford but they never reopened their crèche. I’m now on child #2 and I’d love to be able to go to the gym again. Any other recommendations that won’t mean I have to remortgage (aka David Lloyd)? TIA!

Home workout ideas

I’m finding it so difficult to actually get to the gym consistently so I’m looking for workout ideas I can do at home. I have some equipment, resistance bands, skipping rope and a kettle bell. Does anyone know where I can find good 20-30 minute workouts with these items?

Thinking of joining the army with my kids on base.

I did some research after having a thought, and saw it may be possible for me to go into the military and bring my kids on base. If I can kick my green, then I can do it but I'm stopping today if this is actually possible, already put my number and email of the us army site so a recruiter can call me. I hope they co...

Vitamns

What does everyone give their little ones vitamins wise? We used to always put his wellbaby vitamins in his milk at bedtime but now he doesn't have milk anymore we can't figure out how to get him to take them. They don't taste great so in other food/drinks he just won't take them. Has anyone moved onto tablets/gummies?

Baby vitamins

I have been giving my 2 year old the medicine type baby vitamins in her milk, she would have a cup an hour or so before bed generally. But she has completely lost interest in drinking it. I don’t want to risk adding it to her cereal or anything in case she can taste it and it puts her off eating. What is everyone d...
