  • Slight over-reaction by some OS'ers. I was pointing out that people should be wary, as Pink points out. I would love the op to post again and prove me wrong.........:undecided

    I would like to say a big thanks to kboss2010 for the Quiche recipe , My daughter made one this morning and it was so good, and at the same time made jam tarts. I think it will become a new family favorite. :D And lot cheaper that shop bought plus alot nicer.:)

    You're very welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's my go-to dinner recipe if I'm a) low on ingredients b) skint or c) I'm in a hurry because I always have eggs, flour and margarine in and you can fill it with anything :money:

    Ooh, jam tarts, you know I never think to make those! Mind you, I'd probably eat the whole batch if I did :p

  • The problem is LAVANDULA that a very new poster who in all honesty asked a perfectly reasonable question to be helped with was then virtually branded as a con artist for no discernable reason. I would certainly have been most upset and mystified as to why had that happened to me as a newby and would certainly NOT have read or posted again on MSE. It's so easy to be kind and no one has even suggested sending money or anything else just given good advice where they can so it's not hard to understand why the OP isn't replying to any of this is it?

    people working people are genuinely struggling families are feeling the brunt of inflation and low pay alongside the rise of foodbanks which are needed to feed people who are maybe waiting for decisions on benefits people should be more understanding /open minded.
