It took a lot of practice but I finally for the hang of rolling these chicken rice paper rolls. I like mine thick, but you can reduce the filling and have slimmer rolls if you prefer.

I am very diligent about replying to emails that need a response. As soon as the email lands in my inbox I deal with it. This means that my customers, suppliers and friends can rely on me. However, I am not that good when it comes to emails that don’t need my immediate attention. I keep everything in my inbox until it has been dealt with and have one email going back over 3 years. This is a discount code from Kitchen Aid which I fully intend using. But only when I can afford to shop for a new accessory. At the end of August I decided to go through the entire list. I deleted a discount voucher that had expired at the end of April. Clearly I didn’t need anything from the company I had got it from. I also moved a few emails into folders as they are not important.

And at the same time I made a few phone calls that needed to be made before the end of the month. But that did not need immediate action when I received them. It was a great sense of achievement to clear my inbox. And feel like I have a clean slate going into the September. I am now down to 15 emails that need some sort of action from me. Two of them are for our trip in December so there is really not much I can do about them now. And one is for a weekend away we are taking in a few months time. The rest all seem arbitrary but are there to serve more as reminders than anything else. Do you leave emails in your inbox to deal with at a later stage?

Hi Tandy, I have email archives going back to 2001 so yes, I hoard emails. I often go back to old transactions and look for something I did in the past that is similar to something new I am doing. Luckily, I have a very good memory and can always find what I’m looking for. A nice recipe.
That is a great way to assist you in future work 🙂
I often leave emails for later, but then I forget about them since they get buried in with the 100 plus new emails I get every day…
I would not cope getting over 100 emails a day!
I’ve never worked with rice paper even though I bought a package some time ago. Probably I need to give it a try 🙂 These rolls look and sound wonderful!
Have fun trying to make them!
