    Flippin eck. We don't have lakeland here (not that I'm aware of ) and I'm kind of scared to intriduce myself to it - as people seem to addicted to buying from it!

    I've read and re read the link there, but it's not sinking in my brain. Reusable baking liner stuff. Ok, i get it!

    Are't there two more episodes? This weeks is single parent, so will be interesting. See how long it is before it gets ripped to pieces :rolleyes:

    SPOILER FOR WED 9th SEP SHOW

    Jenni believes that only the finest and most expensive ingredients should go into her meals. She spends a fortune on luxuries like smoked salmon and crab meat. She will only use the most expensive cuts from the dearest butchers and can shop up to four times a day in different places for the right ingredients. Can the chefs win her over with their tailor-made recipes, a one-stop shop and a waste not want not approach?
    How will Jenni and son Jourdan enjoy dishes like slow-roasted shoulder of lamb, spicy quesadillas, seared squid with chorizo and an Allegra dessert special - sad fruit made happy?

    The quesedillas are Lovely!

    I got some of that oven liner stuff from Aldi fro £1.49 I think. Alot cheaper than lakeland and the food slides off beautifully.
    Also got some toastie bags in the same material for DS who loves his toasties, but at 11 not really old enough or confidant enough to use anything other than the toaster.
    Also saw some of both in B and M bargains last week. I got some more toaster bags but for only 49p on offer from B&M bargain :)

    Tried the Jackie brownies as posted on this thread. Thanks to the poster as they were yummy. Best brownies I have ever made, but I prefer something more like a fudgey cake than just a peice of fudge like other recipes. Really deep and yummy.
