To think not keeping sugar in the house

[Hullygully]

Is fine if no one in your family takes it and it's poison anyway?

I have coffee in for guests even though no one in the house drinks it - I'd feel embarrassed if I didn't and they asked! Can't you steal a few sachets of sugar from a cafe for emergencies?

I don't like cakes. Dry spongey things.

I haven't got a sweet tooth really. I would rather have 8 packets of crisps in a row.

I have only have one friend who likes sugar in her tea. She only vidits once every few months. I have sugar on a high shelf at the bsck of the cupboard. I can't imagine not having any - it's hardly poison!

I keep coffee and fruit teas in the house especially for guests because they like them and apple juice for their children even though mine rarely drink it. It's fairly basic hospitality imho.

You buy cakes.

That's what cake shops are for. Duh.

How are poor old cake shops suppose dto survive if you keep sugar an flour an shit?

I couldn't care less if nigella "I'm poncing around my kitchen with not enough nightwear on that I may fling off at any moment" lawson puts sugar in pasta sauce. Just no

I don't have it generally either hully

But what do you put on your cereal? Or in your cream? Or on your strawberries?

Freak.

HOME MADE BREAD

dear lord

Salt and sugar detract from the acidity in the tomatoes ... Some add tomato sauce which is just vinegar and sugar ...

It is not like a little bag of sugar is going to go off ...

I hate when i visit someone and they have no sugar... I would always provide the 'essentials' !!!

"Just a spoonful of sugar..."

Buy a little bag of sugar for your guests

I put prunes on my muesli

I don't have cream.

Strawberries are naturally sweet and a little kirsch helps them along lovely.

Why aren't I dead skinny?

I'm with GetOrf in not seeing the point in cake. Claggy lumps of fat.

I do put sugar in tomato based sauces though. And salt.

Now home made bread I do not get Morrisons crusty at 60p a loaf cannot see why people do it !

Has someone remarked on your lack of hospitality, Hully?

yy cake is horrid

chocolate eclairs and bars of choc are nice tho.

But I don't make them myself so shoot me now you mad baking lot.

Oh that Nigella she gives herself airs. She went to Italy when she was 18, someone said 'ciao bella' to her and now she classes herself as an authority on Italian food.

I mean honestly. Anyone who has tried her gnocchi roastinis knows that she knows nowt about it.

Freaks.

Mkae your own eclairs Hully go on they are much nicer than shop !

I also like my sugar from cane and not from beet .

I love Nige, really I do, but some of her recipes are bollockas.

I have caster (both standard and vanillerated), granulated, light brown soft, demerera, dark muscovado, honey, maple syrup, golden syrup, treacle and icing sugar. And a tube of liquid glucose. Think that's the lot.

I am keeping the sugar-growers of the world in business.

Look how she's made ol Charles Saatchi slim down, I reckon she's kind of suctioned it off him and put it in her cooking and her cleavage.

Up to half a teaspoon of sugar to two cans of tomatoes in pasta sauce.

Sugar is also the answer to too much chilli heat -cancels it out completely.

Make your own eclairs!!!

Is that even possible?
