    Sherry is lovely BB, prefer sweet but dry is okay with some lemonade.

    Inspired by a 99% full bottle of dry sherry sat in my fridge since December. Bought for class to share as an ingredient and the other 99% will now sit in my fridge forever more. :rolleyes:

    That wouldnt last long here BB. We love sherry :beer:

    Have you actually tried it?
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    it is sooooooooo dry. Deliberately bought that dry for the recipe but it's _pale_ to drink - put some into a shot glass and thought - I could bring paint off with that!. I've never fancied the idea of sherry in a trifle.

    In fact, I don't think I've ever tried sherry in trifle........don't think my Mum put sherry into her 1970s Bird's Trifle mixes!! :rotfl:

    Just checked my bank account - if my WTC payments are given to me any earlier in the month, they will be giving me them a month before they are due! They started off being paid on the 2nd and have worked themselves back to me getting the April payment today!

    Agreed, aren't you supposed to feel better after seeing the doctor?

    I used to work for a charity fundraising company which was door to door, the amount of abuse I got was unreal. Old ladies yelling at me, people swearing at me, people setting dogs at me. So yeah, never doing that again.
    Not an expert, but I try and contribute and I'll always listen. Middle child of middle child parents. I drink way too much coffee.
