Tips/Hints:
I made this quite some time ago but I think I have got it fairly correct. It is an adaption of a similar recipe from BBC Good Food.
It seems complicated but it's not.

Thanks for the information. I plan to make them today or tomorrow.

Churchill I empathise with that. I tend to think I want to make bread, what type don't we have in the freezer at the moment. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Just been to the spud shed and bought a heap of plums. They were still $3.99/kg but I felt in the need of some stewed plums. Got some nice peaches and apricots too.

Garlic, spinach and mushrooms, I would never have thought of that and it looks delicious. We're having quiche tonight. Not sure what I'm putting into it apart from the eggs and cheese.

Jo my best wishes to you, your son and the rest of the family. Posting on here must come last where family are concerned.  Hopefully you will soon be able to relax and return to a normal life. 

Chookie good on you. Wow an ipad. I really don't think I dare think about one. I own a netbook and a laptop and use DD's computer all the time.

Gretchen what are you reading at the moment? I've just started Monica M^cInerney's latest "At Home with the Templetons." I heard her speak last year about her writing. It's light but entertaining.
