We picked so many sloes one year that I was able to make sloe gin, sloe vodka, sloe brandy (not that wonderful) and sloe dry martini ;D ;D

I once worked with someone who used to make marrow liqueur. He used to make a long cut lengthwise off the marrow, scoop out the seeds, half fill with any cheap spirit, add brown sugar, put the lid back on and sit the whole thing in a washing up bowl. Then leave it in the airing cupboard for a couple of months.

The tight so-and-so never brought any in though, so I can't vouch for the taste ::)

cathy_3

yes it was on telly so it must be right lol

all the essex girls apparently drink malibu and pineapple and tia maria and coke and its a sign of being common
it was on that series about class, where they said hanging baskets were common as well.

they mustnt sell it anywhere else ???

cathy_3

Im more common than you because I have 8 hanging baskets AND gold taps in the bathroom

apparently that is the epitomy of common-ness

even though they came with the suite and I wasnt going to pay £180 for chrome ones im still common.

I would be trailer trash only we dont have a caravan im too common, so Im tent trash, cos weve got a tent somewhere.

specially for Sheel

TIA MARIA

8 fl oz Water
6 oz brown sugar
4 tsp powdered Coffee
8 fl oz light Rum
4 tsp Vanilla Extract


Boil water, sugar and coffee for 10 mins and let cool. Add rum and vanilla. Put insterelised bottle and leave for about a week before using.

youd get about 4 bottles tia maria out of the bottle of light rum

;D
