Oh you knows it! Lol!

I cooked my girlfriend a 3 course meal for her birthday on Friday, all 3 recipes from DeliaOnline and it was superb! So simple and tastes amazing!

People had an epi when she did the 'How to boil an egg' thing - I thought it was great, I still know people who haven't got a clue!

Thanks for the greenie by the way! ;)

LOL she is great if you really need the step by step thing but I have to admit she does do a wonderful lemon layer sponge I think that's the only recipe of hers I've ever used.

Thanks for all the information! My neighbor has a cherry tree from which all the neighbors are welcome to come and pick!

Oh wow Clough lots of free fresh cherrys for you huh, I'm banned from anything cherry till next jan when I've had our second wee one I went into labour eating cherry pie with millie so bens very adamunt I won't be eating any for a while giggle.

Eating cherries caused you to go into labor?

LOL ben thinks so ;) ill just humour him lol

Pack the washed cherries into clean jars, pour in sugar to cover. Place in the sun and leave until the sugar dissolves. It will form its own syrup, then if you wish you can add some alcohol or wine.
This is the easiest recipe in the world.
