Stella Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 GREEN GINGER WINE!!!! Over winter when doing waterchanges I tend to have one arm in the tank utterly freezing, a hot water bottle under the other arm (the burning kinda counteracts the freezing of the other arm) and a green ginger wine sitting on top of the tank. Best thing for a sore throat too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need someone to cook for me! I used to have an old recipe called "the Two-Hat Cure for Colds & Flu" Basically you take lemon, honey, hot water & whiskey or brandy & combine them in a large pitcher. Go to bed and put your hat on the end of your bed. Keep drinking until you see two hats on the end of the bed. Then you know you're cured.

tinytawnykitten Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Im busy making vodo dolls for you all at the moment Can you make chocolate voodoo dolls? My favourite is anything done in the slow cooker (it makes me feel smug coming home to that lovely smell wafting through the house) and the curried Kumara Soup recipe from the Edmonds cookbook. Yum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedingFrenzy Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 This is making me awful hungry... My mums allergic to gluten and during the winter she makes the best gluten free pumpkin muffins, with heaps of margarine (or butter(and marmite in my case :oops: )) its soo good... could get the recipe if anyone is keen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkLB Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 And where is the recipe for the Caramel Choclate Marble cake? :roll: Apparently it's not called a Caramel Chocolate Marble Cake :oops: That's just what I've called it since I was little and the family just let me carry on doing so. It's called a Caramel Cake and it's my absolute favourite. The recipe is pretty old and uses old school measurements. It goes like this; 1/4 lb Butter (115gms) 1 teacup sugar 1 egg. Cream butter & sugar, add beaten egg. Heat 1 cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of Golden Syrup. Lastly add 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Add this to the mixture, sift in 1&1/2 cups of flour. 1 teaspoon of baking powder, salt. Add vanilla essence. Pour half the mixture into cake tin. Sprinkle with chopped dates or sultanas. Add 1 tablespoon of cocoa to the remaining mixture and pour on top. Bake in moderate oven, 350 F, 180 C for 1/2 hour. Mum uses sultanas and I ask for plenty of them. Cover the cake in thick chocolate icing. A1 delicious :bounce: I want one NOW!! I wonder what Mums doing?? :lol: ( Reaches for 'phone) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
