Why was it deleted?

So what you're saying, Errol, is that you prefer a cake to be less cake and more convenient mechanism for delivery of dairy products, like chips are with salsa?

ErrolTheDragon · 08/06/2018 23:22

Or?

AncientLights · 08/06/2018 23:20

If I remember correctly the pea cake was a standard sponge mix but with peas added. Frozen or fresh? Not sure. Frozen would add to the water content of the cake, possibly disastrously. How green would the cake be? Could I pretend it's really pistachio?

Cooked fruit - I have to cook stoned fruit like plums, apricots etc as am allergic to raw. So fruity crumbles are yummy.

BUT: cream, custard or ice cream on top?

Yawning late in the evening is surely allowed, though it may be contagious, but running around before bedtime sounds like something that should be discouraged if not banned.

Ahhh bless....

Sorry about finding the sprout scones link and other deviant veg cakes.Blush

Well quite. We weren't no-platforming. Of course, if a speaker is tedious, illogical etc, then the audience may start nattering and sidle off towards the refreshments.

CourtneyLovely · 08/06/2018 23:11

It was the sprout scones that done it.

Surely removing the post is more like no-platforming than refuting the OP's claims with some actual facts and then sharing recipes...

Btw I'm very interested in almonds as a crumble topping. Ground and mixed in or flaked and on top?

OrchidInTheSun · 08/06/2018 22:59

Maybe you're right AAK! They're flatmates. One able to construct rational (ish) arguments and the other a raving loon

spontaneousgiventime · 08/06/2018 22:57

Awww Have we lost J4nice for good now? Oh well, they were fun while they lasted, no doubt a replacement has been lined up and will appear soon.

MN, your decision to remove the violent women thread appears to be nonsensical!

SupermatchGame · 08/06/2018 22:55

Yes... when other posters have had posts deleted for saying "bless"...

Tut. You may as well just go ahead and mention alt-right potatoes now.

AngryAttackKittens · 08/06/2018 22:50

Flatmates? Telepathy?

OrchidInTheSun · 08/06/2018 22:44

I actually quite like oats in crumble but then I'm a fan of toasted oats. Plus I think a successful crumble is really all about the balance between sugar/butter/flour etc. It's not a good thing to eat if you're low-carbing sadly :(

I'm still intrigued as to how gibbertyflibbert knows with certainty that j4nice bleeds daily and yet isn't j4nice. Most mysterious

ReluctantCamper · 08/06/2018 22:40

Just.don't.yawn.

thebewilderness · 08/06/2018 22:39

The I've Had an Idea thread is still up. Same OP.
I don't know what doubt there is to give the benefit of.

thebewilderness · 08/06/2018 22:29

I found it confusing when compared to the threads where the mod says they clearly see a derailer troll but are leaving the thread up.
J4nice escalated the abusive language way over the line in the middle of the night after those first few days of MN tolerating the borderline behavior despite reports.

BertrandRussell · 08/06/2018 22:25

Failed baked apples are either the wrong sort of apple or too hot an oven.

AngryAttackKittens · 08/06/2018 22:19

Was it Janice or however it was written? If so I think HQ banned them for being an obvious troll.

(Yell at me all you want, SMG, in this case I'm restating what HQ said themselves.)

BarrackerBarmer · 08/06/2018 22:11

I'm going to give MNHQ the benefit of the doubt here.

I think the troll in question may have crossed a line somwehere and MNHQ are genuinely trying to keep mn posters free from the dodgiest type of troll.

Has he been banned entirely?

theaveragewife · 08/06/2018 22:11

Flakes almonds??!??? Nuts are not welcome.....not in the changing room and not in desserts.

I can master a lemon and lavender bundt cake, but a baked apple is still beyond my abilities.

AndhowcouldIeverrefuse · 08/06/2018 22:04

A good summary by Pencils

A handful of oats is good. I sometimes even throw in some flaked almonds

GrainneWail · 08/06/2018 22:03

I'm very ambivalent about baked apples. I love the idea of mushy appley goodness with custard or and ice-cream but they always disappoint me...

thebewilderness · 08/06/2018 21:59

Oh! except apple! Baked apple is delish,

thebewilderness · 08/06/2018 21:58

I question the point of crumble. Seems a lazy pudding to make, all things considered, when there could be Cake with lemon curd and raspberries or even raspberry pie.
