Cheeky git. Have you not got a shed you can banish him to?

Indeed.

I was in here for a reason, that I just remembered, I am making a basic white loaf, and for once read a few of the notes, it said, try to keep your dough as wet as possible, wetter loaves bake into better bread, so I tried today and it is more difficult to work with, so we will see. Also might be that SallyK's loaf comes out fine.

Linds, I would turn it into trifle, scrape the cream off & freeze it, or invite your real friends to come and eat it!

Trifle would have been a brilliant shout. It's in the bin now.

I would have been very peed off Linds. As Lizzie said - would have scraped the cream off and frozen with the intention of having it as trifle sponge or with custard.

This is Ottolenghi’s Lemon and Blackcurrant Stripe Cake:



And this is my version:



I had to buy a bigger baking tray and the compote was a little thick, but I was really pleased with it 😊

It doubled up as Eli’s 7th birthday and a welcome to Theodora cake 🎂

I apologise for the Christmas cake stand by the way. My glass one had been put away in the wrong cupboard and I only found it this morning. I think the cake would have looked clearer on that one.
