Badger's budgeting begins

please-let-me-be-lucky

Mine came with instructions on how to look after him and make him & it specifically says add apples & sultanas etc. I'm not at home now but can give you the recipe later if you don't have it (though the idea of bananas & Choc sounds good to me!!) Xx

Morning all!

Firstly, what the ??? is a Herman the German cake!

Hope the housework isn't too dull Badger! I've made myself a to do list of chores, including tidying up the cupboard under the sink. I'm a bit scared as to what I might find lurking under there..._pale_

Hope everyone has a good day

He's a friendship cake pc, you have to stir the mix each day and on day 4 add some more sugar, milk & flour then again a few days later, then you divide it into 4 and give away 3 portions to friends/family. The last portion gets baked

There's loads of info on the website including the basic starter recipe http://www.hermanthegermanfriendshipcake.com/

Really need to move but CDWM is enthralling!! Only 1 more episode to watch
Argh under the sink along with under the stairs, the stuff of nightmares

Morning.. I hadn't even thought on looking at apps for phones, good idea!!

That cake sounds a lovely thought.

The one I've got Easy Money is great but after a 30 day free trial it's £5.99. Normally I wouldn't pay this much for an app but because I can update it straight after buying something it's so much easier for me. I'm definitely going to buy it when my trial runs out.

Well last CDWM watched, so housework must start now

That's a really cool idea, I can't believe I haven't heard of that before!

I'm getting really into my baking at the moment and I'm even thinking of investing in a breadmaker.. I like the idea you can make jam with some of them, does anyone recommend a particular model?

I soooo don't want to be a work today. At least I have paid off some more of my loan

Loving the housework smilies by the way, I wish actually doing the work was that cute!

Ooh SF that sounds scrummy, I was thinking maybe banana & choc or cinnamon, sulatanas & honey?

Ooh both of those sound yummy I'd choose banana and chocolate though

Fae

thanks for the website link, I've been wanting to have a go at a Herman but haven't been able to find anyone with a starter, going to start one myself now it looks great

Hope the housework isn't too bad

Fae
