Photographs, and preferably a streamed video, of contestants frantically stirring the sauce after adding the flour will be REQUIRED!

:think: Hmmmm...no facilities to video. I'll have my hands full too - you'll get whatever photos I get chance to take!
Campbells condensed chicken soup 2 for 1 in Morrisons. :whistle:
I won't cheat, honest.
I've just spent £50-odd in Morrisons. :eek: You lot'd probably shoot me if you saw the receipt.
To be fair though, I haven't been for fortnight - I was feeling like Old Mr Hubbard.
Stocked up with plenty, so I can make more cake. :j
I got some really bizarre sticky toffee cheese too
.
More importantly I am now the owner of 2 leeks, 400g chicken "mini fillets" (two breasts was the same price, but had skin on and only 380g
). I've got Stork margerine (which is "perfect for pastry" apparently :rolleyes: ), new flour & streaky bacon.
Couldn't find a pie vent. :mad: Wallace may yet be pressed into service. :rotfl:
Oh, I even remembered to buy a rolling pin. What else did I need?
If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
A bowl big enough to make the pastry in?
Sticky toffee cheese? Is this cheesecake, by any chance? Imagination running riot here.............
Well done with the mini fillets - as I walked home from the shops I thought I could tell you to get chopped up chicken bits, rather than breasts, but you seem to have worked it out for yourself! (Star pupil

Bu66er.
I'll have to use me cake-making bowl, which isn't quite big enough. :rotfl:jobbingmusician wrote:Sticky toffee cheese? Is this cheesecake, by any chance? Imagination running riot here.............
No! This is cheddar cheese with raisins, dates and toffee pieces. :eek: I had to ask the girl if I could try some (I always do that at the cheese counter anyway! :drool: ), thinking it would be all wrong. It wasn't, so I got a little bit.

See?
Not sure what I'm going to do with it though. I don't think it's right for sarnies, and it wasn't cheap so I didn't get much. It's not right to go with pickled onions either.... :think: If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
Looks yummy! You could send a slice over here........Ex board guide. Signature now changed (if you know, you know).0
