As Bente is oming round tomorrow night for dinner, I thought I'd do some poached pears - in wine :lol:

I only have granulated sugar - do I really need caster sugar? If I do, I'll have to whizz down to the village tomorrow morning and hope the shop has some, but if I can get away with granulated..... ;)

Granulated will be absolutely fine Ton, it all dissolves just the same :)

Oh that's great, thanks Di xx

Course you can Kaz - i even invited Tom, but he knows Bente and declined :oops: :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:

She's a lovely lady, buit very hard work in that everything has to be "baby clean", she won't eat cetain foods, so I'm taking a risk doing chicken in bacon, with white beans, mash and cabbage. She wanted an "English dinner", so she's getting one :lol:

And we'll be lighting the fire just for her (and me, it was lovely and toasty last night :D )

I'm normally told beforehand what foods she's not eating that week :roll:

Changes with the wind :roll: or her missing gallbladder is the reason, or her tummy can't have fatty foods or ....
