[Sundae]

Sorry to hear of your jam-related woe, Lola.
I will add a jar of jam to my suitcase when I finally make it to America.
I'll even put a special label on it for you, "My friend came all the way across the Atlantic and all she brought me was a lousy jar of jam."

The recipe for the strawberry & cream cakes makes 24.
The fact that it uses fresh cream means they have to be eaten the same day, pretty much. So I talked to Mum about it and we decided I would make a whole batch of the plain cakes, but freeze half.

I defrosted six yesterday and made them into cola cakes. Basically just adding cola frosting, sugar and a couple of cola-bottle sweets. I wasn't sure how well they'd go down, so I didn't want to risk all 12.

I had one, the chap who came to clean the gutters had one, and this morning there is one left. I'd say someone in this house had more than one... Not pointing any fingers... Not a complaint, nothing makes me feel quite as good as people enjoying what I've made.

My Patronus memory would probably be Limey's post about my chocolate cake.
