Tas mentioned there was a good thread on - What's for Dinner.
Seems it ended up - a bit ' snooty '.
So - no fancy - dancy - stuff - just good fresh ideas for dins.
Oh - & Freddie - just loved the zucchini slice - if you could just put it here one more time - I swear not to lose it again.
And please - this time add the - zucchinis. lol.
Here - tonight - Chicken Schnit's with salad.

At this moment my son is baking a Cinnamon Tea Cake, from a packet. Easy peasy you say? Well you should see the kitchen, it looks like the cat went ballistic. And guess who is going to have to clean it up? The cake better taste good LOL.
I am not much into cakes.
But..........I like to to make my own pasteries and deserts, about once a week I am in the kitchen baking. (eclais, profiterols, different types of slices, tarts, baked chesse cakes etc) Like you see in the window of a cake shop.
Make them all from scratch, dont use things like packet custards etc.
Im not a whooooooo, chemicals, guy,
With no messy kitchen.
Hmmm, this could explain why friends drop in often.
I regard most recipes as a starting point only.
I have made some huge changes to some and slight changes to others.(measurements/ingredients and weights, as well as over temp and time), depending on what I want, like a softer or harder, or creamier carmel or a softer base.
I dont cheap-skate on ingredients.

Hey, what's wrong with raspberry slice? I'll have you know there was a time (when I was a poverty stricken student like many were at uni) when I lived on all kinds of slices as a main meal, not to mention popcorn, half a bagel, raw carrots wrapped in cold miniature pancakes and cold toasties with no filling ...
Mind you, we didn't starve, but it was just decided that "beggars can't be choosers", especially if we wanted to finish and get through the studies...

Hi Icy, it was only a land of plenty for those who had plenty
I was grateful for anything at the time.

I have been checking the rule book on this, to be sure you are not committing any offence.
There is nothing in it that states when you can or can't eat a Raspberry slice, or any other slice.
You wont be committing any offence, so enjoy.

Hallelujah, rejoice! Up and onwards with slices and slicings of them forever!
I always knew we could have our slice and eat it too!
