We had a baking morning today in preparation for the arrival of our visitors and as there was a lot to do I offered to make a sponge cake.
This was met with some trepidation by my wife as my previous experience in the baking department has been limited to washing up and other menial jobs.
However, she let me loose on the recipe and I followed it to the letter and the end result was quite good.
During my solo baking effort I learnt three important lessons which I'm passing on to fellow first time cake makers.
1 During the baking process avoid opening the oven door every two minutes and yelling "RISE YOU BUGGER" as this often has a detrimental effect on the finished article.
2 If the cake sticks to the tin, gently go round it with a knife to loosen it, don't punch the bottom of the tin as this results in bruised knuckles.
3 It's not polite to present the cake to guests with a whacking great chunk cut out, even though the WGC was used to test whether it was fit for human consumption.
Oh well, we live and learn!

Just to let you know folks, I wont be on Toluna much, if at all from the 22nd of March until the end of the month. We're having visitors staying with us so keeping them entertained will be taking up the majority of my time for a few days unless we can offload them to other family members for a few hours.
So don't all start worrying about me, thinking I'm ill and rushing out to buy grapes, flowers and bottles of Lucozade.
Try to behave yourselves while I'm off, I know it will be difficult for you to cope without me so just do your best and I'll try to catch up with topics when I can.
As Arnie says "I'LL BE BACK"

What's your favourite Clint Eastwood film?
I saw Gran Torino on TV last night and enjoyed his performance, so I thought I'd ask what's your favourite Eastwood film?
