Something Simple

SOMETHING SIMPLE

My feet are dancing
at the end of the bed,
nails clothed in pink
they pirouette!

Suntrapped ironed sheets
sooth the soul
while choreographed
feet swan about
when I should
be cooking tea!

That's my answer to Byron's posted request of when are we opening the Egg and Camel Cafe!!

Here's an easy fruit cake recipe which someone gave me but I can't remember who. sorry!

RARO CAKE

1 kilo of mixed dried fruit
1 packet of Raro drink made up to a litre. I used passionfruit and pineapple, but orange would be just fine.
2 cups of S.R. flour

Make up the packet of drink in a bowl and soak the fruit in it over night.
Next day mix in the flour and bake for 1 and 1/2 hours on 150c or 300F

For abit of a surprise add half a bar of cooking chocolate smashed up before adding the flour.
