Gracie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Well, it looked lovely, M, well done I have never been one for baking but have made mince pies with the kids in the past, not to put too finer a point on it but let's just say that in my household it's probably best to buy them from the supermarket lol Grace 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hylander Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 Believe me Grace I am not that hot either, in fact I have a good system, when I make anything if it doesn't turn out as it should its next destination is the bin and I don't tell anyone in the house. What the eye doesn't see the heart doesn't grieve over is my motto. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Monica, Our bin was well fed over Christmas, on Christmas day I burnt the bacon on the pigs in blankets, so the bacon went in the bin and new was applied to the pigs. The usual problem not enough oven space even with two ovens and using all four gas rings on the hob. The kitchen needs a refit, so maybe I will look at a bigger hob and a new oven.

MauriceMynah Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Well, I have now read from Gracie herself that she makes pies out of children, and she buys the kids from supermarkets. This isn't the 'chocolate and choux' eating Gracie I thought I knew!!! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Oh Lordy, I do set myself up don't I? That's exactly what it reads like MM, trust you to pick up on it Grace 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranworthbreeze Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Hi Grace, I hope you only bought girls from the supermarket? sugar and spice sounds good in baking, not too sure about the alternative Regards Aaln 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Oh very funny you lot, you really get to grips with somethings don't you? You could say you like to have your cake and eat it Get it.........and while I'm about it, that's just about the icing on the cake, it really is, you should all stop taking the biscuit, honestly, the proof is in the pudding so to speak. So when you've quite finished taking the pies (I won't swear) you can stick your yule log where the sun don't shine Grace 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Alan Hi Alan, Cannon do a dual fuel, 6 burner, 2 ovens (fan and conventional), separate grill and a warming oven. Usually about £1150 but far superior quality to the Bellings (the main alternative). We've had ours a few years and find the oven temperatures are pretty accurate. regards Roy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
