Special love and hugs and everything crossed vibes for LL. We'll be sat beside you tomorrow and if your consultant suddenly doubles over that's when I kick him on the ankle for messing you about xx

And when tears come to his eyes and he suddenly starts speaking in a high pitched voice, that's when I've kicked him somewhere higher up

nopot2pin - you asked on the other thread about the recipe for pineapple upside down cake - well here's a picture of it:



And this is the recipe:

Topping:

• 2 oz butter
• 2 oz golden granulated (or brown) sugar

The Fruit bit:

• 3 slices fresh pineapple, peeled cored and cut into pieces

The cake bit:

• 4 oz butter (or marg)
• 4 oz caster sugar
• 2 beaten eggs
• 6 oz SR flour
• a bit of milk

Making it up

• Grease a dish - either a 7 inch cake dish or, as do as I did as I didn't have one of those, a 7 inch pyrex casserole dish
• cream the butter and sugar for the topping bit together and spread across the bottom of the tin or dish
• arrange the pineapple in pieces on top of the sugar/butter mixture
• Make the cake bit in the usual way (cream the butter and sugar, beat in the egg and fold in the flour, adding enough milk to make a dropping consistency) then put on top of the pineapple, smoothing it out.
• Pop in the oven gas mark 4, 180 F for about 45 minutes
• Remove from oven, allow to cool for about five minutes then put a plate on top of the dish and upend quickly so it ends up upside down.

It was very nice though slightly too sweet for me. I might cut down the sugar a little next time I make it. I served it warm with vanilla ice cream. It went down a treat!
