    I think I got it from some student cookbook...

    Doc loved 'em. Little boy syndrome and said 'no one ever bakes cookies for me' LOL. I thought 'is that not what partners and spouses are for and food processors'...But why is it? Modern married (or not) women just don't bake? It doesn't take that long (couple of hours including the washing up - some recipes even less) and is sooo yummy and folk love you for them...

    Actually I know who do bake....

    Hippy Left wing students for some reason LOL

    Was that proper grammar? Er no...fixed (originally I do know who do bake)

    So yeah working yet mike or nae? I hope to work at some point but currently battling tiredness though tonight is a good night. Need to get some training though under my belt....

    They might seeing as you've taken up fishing. ;) Dolls' House cookies are a bit on the small side though.

    I had one. Nothing but trouble. Took up most of the kitchen and was very slow and noisy.

    I've got a food processor though.

    I will have a chocolate and beetroot brownie, thanks Keiss.

    Mike, a food processor is only any use when you take it out of the box......... so what recipe are you going to share with us first. Whats on the Christmas Day menu?
