The christmas cake has been inexpertly covered with home made marzipan (50/50 almonds/icing sugar, bind with egg white and a little rosewater). We’ll leave it to dry for a few days before covering with (shop bought!) fondant. We’ve found some cookie cutters that will hopefully make brightly coloured 3D fondant trees to sit atop the iced cake. #ChristmasCake #festive

Finished getting the Christmas cake ready today. It was the icing stage - the least enjoyable as far as I am concerned. It is so fiddly and I can never get it looking nice and tidy - especially around the bottom edges. One layer of cream-coloured almond icing, topped with a white icing layer. This year, for the first time, I used a silicon mat to roll out the icing on the kitchen bench, and a rotating cake stand to lay the icing over the cake. So much easier. Should have bought these two items years ago! Live and learn though.

Today is Christmas Cake day! Back to the fruit cake from Nigella Christmas this year. Minor panic when I realised the tin was too small, but fortunately it hadn’t gone in the oven yet! Crisis averted! Into the oven for 2 hours, then four weeks of feeding with brandy before decorating. #ChristmasCake #Nigella

This plum cake has an overwhelmingly consistent positive feedback over the last 5 years. Almost 99.99% And the one person who wasn't over the moon about it doesn't like rum. A #christmascake like this - a recipe like this - loved pan-India, cannot be trifled with or compromised.

So this isn’t a post about dieting but about #facebook nazies.
I have decided to do #intermittentfasting. I’ve just finished #menopause which has been just ‘fun’ 🙄. I’ve put on the excess weight and I have to work out what to do. My parents, in their 80s, have done #it and it seems to work when you have terrible metabolism.
I joined #bodyfast, German, pretty good, did a sample a year ago and it kind of works for me.
Just for your info #IF is not about counting calories, they say it very clearly when you join don’t do it. It isn’t about stopping people eating what they like, they made that pretty clear.
So they tell me i SHOULD JOIN THEIR #FACEBOOK. I did. I hate Facebook and really should just shut it again. I opened it to sell furniture while moving to Perth.
So Facebook says share a photo I have taken and introduce myself, so I did.
I’m quite proud of this #christmascake it looks pretty good.
OMG the questions: why did you share this picture? Do you know how much sugar is in fruitcake. Long diatribe of how bad this is. What was I thinking?
So I left the group. Facebook asked why and I said I didn’t like the members.
Do you like my fruit cake?

I only have a shop-bought Christmas #cake this year so I thought I’d decorate it.
You don’t think it’s too much, do you? 🤪

Well I managed it, Christmas shirts completed, despite much words spoken at the #Sewing machine after the nth buttonhole goes wrong and needs unpicking. I even managed to #Marzipan the #ChristmasCake and bake #AmorettiBiscuits with the spare egg whites. Didn't manage the haircut so I'm not sure when that will happen before Christmas, if it does.
