Only my maternal GM was still alive when I was born and she lived with my aunt and uncle. Did no cooking but would interrupt her chain smoking to eat meals off a tray provided by her DiL.
Not sure what I could parley that into...

Said it before. Trifle is Satan’s own pudding.

I am planning on making one but it is going to involve a lot of cheating and shortcuts.

My mum insists on buying a trifle at Christmas even though she can’t have gluten and I don’t like custard

I dont like jelly

Cold custard, cold jelly, soggy sponge 🤢

Phew! I was really worried for Caroline doing the curse of the lamb and the curse of the pressure cooker.

LaMarschallin · 11/03/2026 20:52

I like trifle but that trifle does not do it for me

I don’t really mind the jelly, fruit or sponge, so I swap my custard for mum’s sponge.
I’d quite happily just do without the trifle altogether though!

@TheDogsMotherlots of sherry.

Its famous in my family that mum made a trifle to take to a party. But dad snuck more sherry in so it slowed about and hardly det. They just bunged thebwhipped cream on.

Jellytotsapplepie · 11/03/2026 20:55

He many going?

Polly and A

Halsall · 11/03/2026 20:56

My mum’s trifle was legendary. Haven’t had it since we lost her 😢
