eat it, bin it, or freeze it?
I made chichen in a white wine sauce last sunday, with extra to go in the freezer. Went to Venice and forgot to put in in the freezer:o Back this morning and I have been pondering on it all day, it smells OK, but as I am a veggie I would have to use DH, DS or DD as guinea pigs!

Marshmallow cake topping
Hi, I regularly buy a coconut sponge cake from the co-op, but was wondering if I could make my own?

Freezing sour cream?
Good evening lovely OSers, I have a conundrum for you....I bought sour cream to have with fajitas the other night but even the smallest pot is too much considering there are only 2 of us.

Could I just make an appeal on behalf of people with an alcoholic to consider when baking for Christmas, please. I know that most of us adore the taste of sherry/brandy/whisky/rum in our Christmas goodies - but for a recovering alcoholic these things can be pure torment.
