Oh SP that would have been disastrous. I'm amazed at the cooks/chefs on TV that put eggs directly into what ever they're cooking. Yuk. I grew up on a farm with chooks/hens and we always cracked eggs into a bowl first. I thought everyone did until I came to live in the city as a new bride. I couldn't understand why people in the supermarkets wriggled the eggs in the carton, until I bought some that had eggs cracked in them. There is nothing worse than the smell of an off egg. We know why they call hydrogen sulphide (??) rotten egg gas.
Narelle, what a lovely 'accident'. This sounds as though it will be lovely. I will definitely try it. May add bits and pieces to it as suggested. Well done.
How about trying TMXers recipe for croissants but instead of rolling them cut them into squares or whatever and put custard etc into them. From memory when I did a cake course a million years ago the croissant and the danish were a similar base.
I admire you all so much.Like Gretchen I have put my cancer behing me and am getting on with life. (except for all the check ups of course) Congratulations SP and what a wonderful person you are Ceejay. SAHM is to be applauded. You can never get back those years. If people can manage it I do think it has lots of rewards.
What a lovely cake. I made this yesterday with left over guiness. I ended up making a few changes as I was running short on stores. I topped up the guiness with about 50ml of beer as I ran out of guiness. I reduced the sugar to 250g as I thought I should. I didn't have enough sour cream so had about 100ml of buttermilk added.
Even with all this messing up it was a really beautiful cake and I will definitely be making it again, thanks CP63.
Great news Aggy. It can be disheartening when things aren't going well. I thought that I'd wasted $2000 at first. As the successes become more frequent and you become comfortable with a new way of cooking you will laugh at the first 'experiments'.
Yes, Alioop, I must tell myself he is just baiting us. Melbourne can't be tooooooo bad as I love going there and all over our wonderful country. But I must concede we were well beaten in the footy this year.
Welcome Scummy from another loyal West Aussie. I hope your enjoying our state. I'm looking forward to reading some of yours/your wifes recipes.
My father was a teacher & that is a very good reason why I am not.
I loved this statement it says so much. We discouraged our daughter from becoming a teacher too. Now she's aiming to become a uni lecturer (in the future)-not too sure what the difference is. Maybe uni students are better behaved.
