They call me Blondie for a reason . . .
I recently wasted a whole weekend trying to get the proprietory porridge breakfast recommended by my Personal Trainer to cook in the microwave, all to no avail, and ended up having to do it in a saucepan.
I followed the instructions perfectly accurately but when I filled the sachet (that the oats came in) with milk, it kept falling over when the turntable went round. When I wedged it so it couldn't move, the bag caught on fire!
Not so Simple at all, as it turns out.
