:eek: i had a message this morning telling me a post i put on last night about being disapointed that portmerion pottery was made in England could come across as offencive, and anti english so if i offended anyone i am very sorry it was not against english just that you expect somthing to be made where it is named after not hundreds of miles away.
i shall sit on the naughty step ( not to bad am sitting with HC, )

oh please! some people are just too easily offended nowadays,
come off the naughty step

Question peeps,

I have become slightly addicted to mr kiplings mince pies so need a substitute.

Is anywhere selling mincemeat ridiculously cheap?

There must be loads out there unsold now it's January.

I want to try that suet pastry idea out but with a mincemeat filling then roll it up n bake. Bet it would by nice with a brandy custard.

Make your own as you have the suet I used to make mine even though I dont like it everyone else loved it

Of course they could always be tea light holders inside paper bags?? Hold on a minute I'm looking for a link

Here's a few ideas from the Martha Stewart site (which I love ... not as much as this one though ) ... there's loads of other ideas but these are some of my favs

• Paper-bag luminarias
• Asian-inspired lanterns
• Photo frame lanterns

Blimey. Found another corker (makes mental note to thumb through this tatty book more often...).
Anyone ever made potato pastry?
Ratio is basically 2 parts flour, 1 part fat, 1 part mashed potato! (add sugar for sweet pastry)

Hmm. Interesting....

Is mincemeat easy (and cheaper) to do yourself?

I find dried fruit is sooooo expensive now. Even the value stuff. Would live to try it though.

Thanks for the boot up the bum!
