    :D

    One of the students in the care home I teach in is obsessed with curry - everything he makes has to have curry in it.

    We were about to make curried cheese and potato pasties, but he suddenly decided on Chelsea buns.

    Should have been called Madras buns really, as two large dessertspoons of Madras curry powder went in with the flour.:rotfl:

    The staff assures me that he will eat them all! They aren't as bad as they sound;) - really!

    Cheers, Paul

    I must admit my first reaction was _pale_, as I had visions of a normal fruity, iced chelsea bun with a rather savoury surprise. But obviously that isn't the case :rotfl:. Is it :eek:

    Made some flapjacks last night using a recipe off here. They were lush. Going to make them next week for ds for his DofE expidition. Also got the recipe off my friend for some choc chip cookies so going to make them next week too.

    May not be baking as such but doing more batch cooking now. Did loads of mince the other day and turned it into bolognese and cottage pies. Going to do the same again this weekend for the freezer while son is at camp.
    The best bargains are priceless!!!!!!!!!! :T :T :T
