Oh, those Senior Moments! « Posted: 13 May 2011 at 02:36 PM »

Did my usual “laundry” wash this morning (shirts/t-shirts), and hung them out on the line.  Came back indoors and decided that my caffeine levels needed a boast.  The kettle stands on the worktop and immediately below it is the washing machine.  Then I saw standing next to the kettle was the measured out detergent which should have gone into the washing machine for the stuff I had just hung on the line . . . . I'm sure I'm not alone in this sort of thing!  Wink

A few weeks ago I made a Special Chocolate cake - it was quite fiddly to make.  I went into the kitchen whilst it was baking and it didn’t smell as chocolaty as I expected - and I used the correct amount of cocoa powder (Black & Green’s).

Then I added the filling - so that it was ready for the Visitors.  They each had a piece and said how nice it was.  Later on I had another piece - but it just had no chocolate flavour.  Strange that!  Had a look in the kitchen cupboard to look at the cocoa packet - and there wasn’t one? But there was a similar pack - which was gravy powder.  I couldn’t have - could I?

The secret is - you have to carry it off with pancake - err, panache!  It was a lovely looking sponge cake - halved and joined with butter cream, a light dusting of icing sugar on top.  It looked exactly like a chocolate cake - so, as they saw a “chocolate” cake - so it looked right - so, it’s bound to taste right. Right?   Grin

Have you tried this website, FC.   Just copy the link under 'Forum Code' (not the HTML or URL ones) and paste it in your reply.  I have no problems with it.   Just left-click on the link which should highlight it blue, then rightclick on it and left-click 'copy' from the menu that appears.  Right-click in the reply box in the forum and then left-click on 'paste' .

I don't follow, SD.   What won't 'download'?   It's just copying and pasting a link which should be straightforward on any computer.

This maybe the wrong thread, Trigger, but it's now forecast for only 21C tomorrow and 23C Monday (Met Office)  then back to the teens on Tuesday.    Better get your thermals at the ready!

Had the first course of my breakfast (Bran flakes!), then returned to the kitchen to do the toast + coffee.  Coffee was under way, plate, knife, marmalade at the ready.  Made the coffee, and thought “This toast’s taking ages” - glanced at the toaster . . . which was still awaiting the slice of bread.  Roll Eyes
