Return of the insaniacs! After what seems to be a lifetime of boring threads and quarrels over breast or bottle, the insaniacs have returned with their own unique brand of comedy! Join if you dare, run like the wind if you dont.

imagine making cakes with vanilla stolly instead of vanilla essence

[yummmmmmmy]

I posted an eggless choc cake, v. scrummy easy recipe on another thread earlier. Shall I bring some in tomorrow night?

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:12

One thinks Christmas cake (and Christmas pudding) is an abomination and an insult to the spirit of Christmas. But one has already scoffed one of each and they were worth it!!!

Food parcels sound good!!!! MMMMMM

mts - vanilla stolly in cakes, YUM!!!

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:13

One obviously meant one of each muffin and scone, not Xmas cake and Xmas pud!!!

milliways · 03/03/2005 22:14

My DH loved Whisky raisin cake, but you have to leave raisins soaking in Whisky so he has to keep sampling it (making sure it is fit to saok raisins in.

My DD wants to try a Beer rinse for her hair - what do you think?

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:14

LOL, beer is supposed to be great for hair, just make sure she doesn't glug it!!!

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:18

If one would like a food parcel, one can email one at wobblyknicks at tiscali.co.uk

Next question - if one has a slightly sick joke about Charles and Camilla, should one post it on MN?

milliways · 03/03/2005 22:19

definately

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:19

Even if it makes slightly sick reference to Lady Di?

milliways · 03/03/2005 22:21

She won't mind - promise

hub2dee · 03/03/2005 22:22

Our letterbox is quite small and I'm worried my profiteroles might not make it, Wobbly.

Do you do nice flapjack's maybe max 6 inches wide, any length

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:23

Ok......

"Today the Queen announced that she was now fully in favour of Charles and Camilla's marriage. To show her support, she would like to give them a wedding gift of a Mercedes Benz and a weekend in Paris."

.............

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:24

hub2dee, i don't do profiteroles anyway but can do very crumbly flapjacks??

hub2dee · 03/03/2005 22:25

OK. Let's open the floodgates:

A woman woke during the night to find that her husband was not in bed.

She went downstairs and found him sitting in the kitchen with a cup of coffee and watched as he wiped a tear from his eye.

"What on earth is wrong" she asked?

"Well do you remember when we were first dating, we were so young"

"Yes I do" replied the wife.

"Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of the car making love?"

"Yes I remember" she said.

The husband continued "And do you remember that he shoved that shotgun into my face and threatened that if I did not marry you then he would get me sent to jail for 30 years?"

"I do remember that " she replied softly taking his hand.

He wiped another tear from his cheek and said

"I would have got out today"

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:25

heard that one but pmsl!!!

hub2dee · 03/03/2005 22:26

One last one from me:

A young woman approaches the checkout counter of the grocery store, arriving just before a clearly intoxicated old man, and places her items on the belt to be rung up:

A can of coffee, a pint of ice cream, some milk, and a dozen eggs.

The drunk weaves a bit unsteadily, trying to maintain his focus on what is before him and still stand up, blurting out "You're single, ain't ya?"

Rather stunned that he could figure this out by what she was buying, she replied "Wow! I just put this stuff down and you knew I was single? How did you know?"

"You're ugly."

hub2dee · 03/03/2005 22:28

If you add more sugar and fat does it become chewier, Wobbly ? Maybe that's what I need. With bits of fruit and maybe some yoghurt coated bitsies.

Crumbly ? no thanks.

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:29

Will have a go and let you know how it turns out - they'll be gorgeous but about 1500 calories each.

hub2dee · 03/03/2005 22:33

I'll have to grapple a lot of bears to work that off.

Wobbly, don't you feel like mastering the black art of choux pastry ?

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:37

Lol @ bears!! Don't know, choux pastry and me just don't go together. I'm of the 'chuck it all in a bowl and mix well' school of baking.

milliways · 03/03/2005 22:39

You'd like my choc cake recipe - no eggs, only measure wet ingredients & whisk together, pour onto sieved dry ingredients, mix together & pour into baking tins. Luffly.

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:43

Sounds like my muffin recipe!!! No faffing about gives you more time to add chocolate and lovely stuff!!!!

milliways · 03/03/2005 22:45

Care to share it? [puss-in-boots eyes emoticon]

wobblyknicks · 03/03/2005 22:49

Of course, hang on

hub2dee · 03/03/2005 22:50

Care to bake a large load, set up online MN currency, allow home deliveries ?

One profiterole (not too sweet on the cream nor the choc coating)
One fruity chewy not too sweet flapjack
One scone, as it comes
Two muffins, any fruit. Maybe wholemeal.

mmmm...

You twos tried frozen dipped fruit ? dw does smashing chopped banana / grapes / strawberries in choc. Delish plus refreshing plus not too bad on calories so don't need to spend A N Other day in the forest grappling more bleedin' bears.
