    Hi :j
    Spare Room - still consider this my Room of Doom eventhough it's SO much better now than it was. Unfortunately, we dumped everything in there when we came back on Sunday night and it is seriously messy! So may be gone for some time - please send in chocolate cake at elevenses.

    Flylady Govt - one way to clean up politics!

    Congrats to those celebrating, welcome to newbies and hugs to those that need one.

    Jx
    I could give up chocolate, but I'm no quitter!

    I found a jam reciepe and cant make sense of it can anyone help??????????
    Black Currant and Rhubarb Jam
    Ingredients:
    1.00 L rhubarb (about 700 g)
    1.00 L black currants (about 800 g)
    650.00 mL water
    1625.00 mL sugar
    How do you get 1652 ml of sugar? Do you measure it in a jug? I'm used to doing things in grams. My blackcurrants aren't ready yet but judging by the bushes there will be loads.:T:T

    IIRC they are interchangeable, so g=ml;)

    I have taken my pills this morning:A:A:A:A:A:A
