    Mine prefer the 'sticky chicken' to the one that's left with a lot of sauce. I still add peppers and things though. It's something even DD will eat and she's the fussiest person ever.

    I have downloaded Microsoft office, just a free trial for now. I'd rather pay for that though than YNAB I really can't get on with YNAB and I've tried several times and wasted many hours I just can't 'get it'

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Diet Coke sticky chicken sounds intriguing. I've cooked gammon in coke before but not chicken. Might have to try that one!

    Glad to see you are posting. How bizarre for the other threads to disappear.:sad:

    I love it, I do find though it takes longer that it says to reduce down. Full fat coke reduces really quick but diet stuff takes a lot longer than it says.

    I think there may even be a link from MSE to it... will check

    Nope... surprisingly, there isn't and I've never heard of the listed alternatives.
