That's fab- I have all the ingredients in!
Thank you! X
 
no worries...i'm dying to make it but don't have a few of the ingredients....do you think it would be ok without the nutmeg and all spice?? (cos that's what i don't have lol)
you'll need to let me know how it is ;) x
Just realised I don't have any Quark until I go shopping so I'm going to make just the cake.
Once I'm out of bed I'll crack on with it and let you know. X

mmmm! lol

what's your take on it...do you think i'd get away with making it without the nutmeg and all spice??x
You can't actually taste the nutmeg or allspice, its the ginger that stands out- I'd say it'd be fine without.
Bloody lovely tho- saving the other half for a late night snack :)
 
Can't stop eating this morning. Don't know whether it's the cold weather or what, but so far I've already eaten a fruit salad of apple, strawberries, blueberries and grapes and 2 x rocky road HiFi Light bars. Thinking of having a banana soon!!
 
I had no inspiration nor motivation this morning so I just had 2 slices wm toast with flora light and jam!!

I know I'll be hungry again now though before lunch :(
 
Had a tatsty breakfast of WM bread toasted with mushrooms, bacon and spring onion cooked and a tsp of LF soft cheese added (1syn)

Hubby treated me to breakfast out this morning at frankie & bennys. I had 2 poached eggs, grilled flat mushroom & tomato and a small slice of wholemeal toast. Delish, and all on plan and no syns! Result! i asked the chef to prep it with no oil and butter and they were happy to do so:D xxxx
