Thanks for sharing

I clicked on the link and then on the link for making your own candied peel. I have a vague memory of one of my grans making her own and letting me have a few pieces as a treat when I was very little. I do remember I loved it. It was not remotely like the stuff you can buy.

Mornin n’alln’all
Dark,wet and dismal here. But I’m not complaining- just grateful we’re not having to cope with flooding etc.
We’ve still not had those promised frosts, but I guess they’ll be here this coming week.

Anyone had any snow flurries yet?

More of the same for me today, and for the next few days.
Tis lovely having OH back…tea in bed, waking up to a roaring fire in the lounge…bliss

Anyone up to anything exciting today?
Remember to pass on those Smiles peeps.
Have a great day

Morning

It's bright and sunny here today pity about it being cold with it though. We're dog sitting this weekend so that's made a nice change.

enjoy your day

Morning all.

Sunny here too, Bren, after early drizzle.

Snoop, I've not settled on a panettone recipe yet. There are so many, and all different. Some use all purpose flour, some use bread flour, some use a sponge, or a biga, or leave it overnight in the fridge, or none of these. It certainly will have no peel in because I hate the stuff.

Good morning all, bright and breezy but it's just 9 degs.
Nothing exciting on the cards today.
Grandson vomingfor lunch as he does most Sundays.
Crack on with the jam and jelly making.

Nicos, sounds like you're being spoiled.
Have a good day all.
