Lol Helen,
When I read your post, knew others across the pond wouldn't understand totally---I fell about, cos my millionaire brother sent me a Harrods Luxury Christmas hamper and as I was cooking spag bol when it arrived, and didn't have any red wine, lobbed half a bottle of the Harrods Claret in it and sent friends email saying
'This is not just Spaghetti Bolognese, this is HARRODS Spaghetti Bolognese'
Hey---it was really good! And I made enough to put two in the freezer!
Serious gross confession now---young friend's 76 yr-old mum made me some lemon and jam tarts and I ate two tonight WITHOUT my dentures---omigod, can't believe I just confessed that!!
Love and Laughs, Bren x
