Chicken & Leek in a Cup

Advantages: a quick snack
Disadvantages: none

...For the past few days I have been unwell with a migraine headache so I haven`t really wanted to eat much food. As I had skipped breakfast yesterday morning and my stomach was complaining I decided to have a cup a soup. Chicken and Leek Cup a Soup There are 5 sackets of soup inside a cardboard box, the box is blue and orange in colour and there is a picure of the soup in a mug. You can also see a picture of chicken, leek and onions, on top of the box you will find the best before date and opening the box is very easy. It says on the box that there are no artifical colours or flavourings, that the soup is low in fat and sugar. On the back of the box are simple instructions on how to make the soup, each sachet contains a powder, just open the sachet and pour into a cup. Then add the hot water and give a very good stir...

Review of Batchelors Cup a Soup

The alternative cup

Advantages: It might just happen this way
Disadvantages: Most unlikely

...All I hear is "ENGLAND, ENGLAND" wherever I go at the mo. "We're gonna win the cup". Right, ok. In your little pretend world, maybe but for the realists, getting out of the group will be an achievement. So for those of you that want to go along the "Mickey Mouse" England World Cup Winners Route, here is the real Mickey Mouse results. Group A France, Senegal, Uruguay, Denmark. The opening game sees France entertaining the upstart Senegal Team. Knowing that the Senegalese team will be a pushover, the French decide to field a select 11 and rest their main players for later rounds of the world cup. This means They are going with a 4-4-2 formation with Jean Paul Gaultier and Antoine from Eurotrash as the main strike force. Fabien Barthez even misses the game and lets Lovelable Resistance Fighter Rene Artois from Allo Allo to take...

Review of The Cup

The art of Italian Espresso

Advantages: Easy to use and maintain. Create delicious coffee and size is very convenient.
Disadvantages: Only make frothed milk for about 2-3 coffees

...coffee to the filter holder, put your cute espresso cups underneath it and wait for the delicious espresso to fill those together with your senses. I found it easy to use the cappuccino nozzle for frothed milk. It takes no more than 2 minutes and it is absolutely up to you to decide the quantity and quality of the froth (although you can only make enough for approx 2-3 coffees). You will end up with white, warm, thick froth that will complement your coffee beautifuly. I always use ground coffee and cold semi-skimmed milk. Washing and maintainance is very easy as long as you wash it as soon as you finish making coffe to avoid the milk sticking on the nozzle and blocking it. The size of the machine is quite small which means it should squeeze on to any work top and will compliment your kitchen very well....

Review of Delonghi EC330S

espresso heaven

Advantages: easy to use, easy to clean, easy to buy
Disadvantages: remember not to let the pot sit on the heat once the coffee is through.

...Simply the best: so straight forward and idiot proof. I also have a collection sitting at the back of my cooker even when I go through periods of coffee abstinence. Yes you will need to replace the rubber rings and yes, every five years or so the filter cup starts to get holes in it especially if you are a slob and leave it sitting around with old damp grounds or coffee in it. Best to clean it every time for longevity's sake - in an ideal world. I can't improve on the comments of the previous reviewer except on how to make perfect froth. The best way by far that I have found is to use your old cafetiere - a glass one with a metal plunger works best. You must scald the milk and let it boil or you will not acheive the same fineness of foam Once the surface of the milk starts to get tiny bubbles draw off the heat. pour into...

Review of Bialetti LA Cafetiere MOKA Express 12 CUP

great cup!

Advantages: easy!
Disadvantages: may spill!

...I really like this little beaker! Both my nephew and my baby use these and they both got the hang of them really early on and with such ease! Babies need to learn to drink out of mugs and cups instead of just from a bottle. It's important they learn how to drink without just sucking at a teet and I tried alsorts of beakers to try to get my baby and nephew to learn this skill and none of them seemed to work. They both would choke a lot or just pushed it away and weren't interested. Eventually I tried this one and it's been the best we've had! It's easy to use, you just fill it up and snap on the lid. The spout can fold back to prevent leaks although it isn't fool proof and my bag is often damp in the bottom or my car keys covered in juice so be warned! I wrap it in a muslin cloth now when I put it in my bag-good tip there...

Review of Tommee Tippee First Cup (4 Months +)

The magic of The Cup

Advantages: great cup competition,traditional, Small teams can beat the biggest teams
Disadvantages: semi finals at Wembley? not good idea -should only be final!

...The Fa Cup is the oldest football competition and is steeped in history. It is such a great tradition in English football and is run by the FA (Football Association) in England. The first Fa Cup final was all the way back in the 1871-72 season. The reason why the Fa cup is so special is because it involves clubs of all standards including non-league clubs. This allows meetings of top teams against so called 'giant killers' who are the lower league teams. The Fa Cup is a knockout tournament with ties for each round drawn at random. There are no seeds so this means any teams left in the draw at any stage can draw any team. The home team is drawn first and the away team second. If the resulting game is drawn by the two teams, there is a replay (at the Ground for the team away in first tie) with extra time and penalties used to...

Review of Fa Cup competition

MOOOsic to my ears, a cup.... that doesn't leak!

Advantages: Non spill, funky design, easy to hold
Disadvantages: Spout cover is loose, can stain

...I have been through so many baby cups, I've found ones that leaked, dripped, clogged up and ones where the lid just falls off. So when looking again, I came across the Cow Cup.... What is the Cow Cup? The cup I am reviewing is the Amadeus Anyway Up Healthy Eating Cow Cup (bit of a mouthful!). It is designed for babies 6+ and boasts that the cup doesn't leak or spill. It is a trainer cup with single piece insert valve so you can have slow flow or normal flow. There is another Cow Cup which is for toddlers aged 12+ from the same range. Amadeus sell a range of other products such as bowls, other cups and cutlery designed for babies and toddlers, Packaging The cup came strapped to a box. The box was very easy on the eye, showing a field and a sky so very blue and green.. I assume this is as cows live in fields...

Review of Batchelors Cup a Soup

Half bottle, half cup

Advantages: easy transition from bottle to cup, soft spout, non spill
Disadvantages: a bit hard to find in shops

...The B Free (formerly Dr Browns) Bottle to Cup Trainer is the only cup I have succeeded in getting Leah to drink from, so naturally I am pleased with it. Although different babies take to different cups, this one does seem to be more bottle-like than any of the others, so would probably be successful for more than the average number of babies! My health visitor told me to start Leah with a cup at five months old, which was a bit optomistic. I've offered her the cup frequently but it's only now at 8 months that she is starting to get the hang of it, and the co-ordination to manage it herself. I tried free flowing cups first as I thought they would be easiest - and they are, but they are also very wet - perhaps fine on your own kitchen floor, but difficult to give to your baby on your friend's new carpet! I moved on to valve cups...
