Following up on my last post, I just wondered what you call this kind of toy? I would call it a cuddly toy, and in this case specifically, a teddy bear. Teddy bears were first named in honour of Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt, who...

Did you ever ask your friends to join mylot?? If you did, what was their response?? I did. At first, they looked interested, or, pretended to be interested, but none of them joined. What was your experience??

jaishankar @Fleura Thank you. But they who I tried to introduce to mylot don't want to join the site. They don't want to share their thoughts, experiences and stories with us. Let them do what they wish to.

As I’ve mentioned before our lodger is coeliac so if we cook for her we have to be very careful to avoid anything containing gluten. I’ve had quite a lot of success making all sorts of gluten-free things which have worked out...
