Scramble Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 From Chickpea It weighs 34g and is a very pale cream. It perfectly formed and in my opinion adorable My mum found it when she was on pooh patrol and decided to look in the nest box as they sometimes poo in there... and what did she see...? I was on the bus to County Band at the time, mum likes me to phone to check I've got the bus and as soon as she picked up it was "Guess what! Chickpea's laid an egg!" Here's some piccies clcik to enlarge: On the scales With me! I'm the most excited I've ever been in my life!!! I wonder if I can make it on the small egg leader board... :D x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemon Meringue Pie with your Lemon curd AND Proper Custard with your Streusel (is it like a Strudel?) yeah erm, the streusal was just in a book of my mum's, Isn't studel like a pastry?
