    Right guys.
    I am not organised.
    Was looking forward to having sphagetti carbonara.
    But I have no eggs.
    Would be ok without? 
    I think so @beanielou, perhaps add a bit of the pasta water or some stock if it's not 'liquidy' enough. Probably too late to make a different sauce like tomatoes with garlic and herbs.🤔

    Enjoy your time with your mum @Gettingtherequickly. Don't worry about the little gain, start again when you get back. 🤗

    Made ice cream again today @bubbs!  Sweetened it with a Tbs of maple syrup plus a little sweetener and added a tsp of vanilla extract.  Was even nicer than the last lot!

    We had it with some strawberries which were lovely.
