At last I've caught up!!!

The first pic that I get when I come back is of your ar*e :eek:

Then I read about you and Mal doing a bit of body magic and it's funny cos I was just telling Crumble about too much information being a bad thing ;)

Mark's cooking sounds like mine. I get bored and wonder off and then come back when I smell burning :D

That photo of you is awful. I know that sounds rude but you look older then than you do now and you look ill.

You are a lovely lady, baking a cake for someone elses mum at such short notice :)
 
Hey everyone, just finished the cake, what a nightmare...the lady is gluten and wheat intolerant, had to make a special cake (no one told me that till after I had baked the first one :mad:), so I had to get all the ingredients and then wash every single utensil I was using (her intolerance is really really bad, even the slightest cross contamination will put her in hospital), we weren't allowed to have any other food near or by it and we also had to check every single ingredient for gluten, even had to phone some companies to check :eek:, never again....it came out lovely, am really pleased with the outcome, but forgot to take a pic was so tired...we couldn't use normal icing, as it has gluten in, so we used betty crocker butter icing and again couldn't use just any topping etc, and her daughter who wanted the cake made, had spent a fortune and literally run out of money, so we settled on Thorntons Classics Collection chocolates, they are gluten free and she loves them so we set them all round the cake and then patterned them on the corners too, and it looked bloody marvellous...we then got some black icing tubes (Super Cook make them also gluten free and wrote on the side of the board....hard to explain but it turned out lovely, will get Kelly to take a photo later ...dead chuffed and dead knackered now :giggle:...hope you all had a great day, will try and catch up tomorrow...nighty night all...sweet dreams :zz: xxxx
 
I bet it looks fab!

Morning Lily x
