OH has a list he's going to make this weekend - soda bread, scones and pizza dough. I managed to get caster sugar at Aldi last night, so can also bake at some point.

Do people just use standard lemons for zest? I won't use waxed ones, and now I find unwaxed ones are sprayed with fungicides. This means I can't make my favourite Dan Leppard lemon drizzle cake with oatmeal in it, unless I can get organic lemons. Which I can't as I'm only shopping at my local village shop. Should I just not worry and use conventional waxed and fungicided kemons? |

I washed mine too. The recipe said to use unwaxed lemons, so I did. Mr GM is the homemade pizza and BBQ king. I do cakes and puddings. |

It says that you can grin rolled oats to use Rosehip so you should be fine but oatmeal is readily available. That is a LOT of sugar! |

LMH - OH tends to be the bread maker and I tend to be the fancy/sweet baker
