Chunkin Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I know what you mean Claire! I made toad-in-the-hole tonight (2 actually -one with veggie sausages, one with 'real' ) and it didn't come out right at all! Love having my daughter's boyfriend round for dinner - he says everything tastes great even is it looks suspect Needless to say I didn't enter the cake competition but would like to know who won!!

clare* Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 Probably right Clare, no competition at all Just a bit of cake sampling going on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 They're always eating cake when I go in their office! It's not fair, they're all so slim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 That is only because they are still young whippersnappers, weren't we all slim when we were their age? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Yes, I was - 8st.5lbs after two children - what happened? (could it be anything to do with the chocolate? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Nooo, wouldn't be the chocolate Lesley, or the home made cakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 That's a relief. I was 8.5 stone when I got married. I dont even want to know what I weigh now! I thought it was all the chocolate, but as it isnt I'm just off to have a square or two of Green and Blacks white ......mmmm....yum.......munch......yum........ Oops dindt mean to eat it all But WHO did win the cake competition?!?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Ok, so I didnt win the competition (as I didnt bake a cake I guess that it would have been hard too!) But I have cheered myself up with ordering an apron anyway - it is the chicken's christmas present to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I got the newsletter today, and the winner is announced in there. So sorry, I forgot the name, but there's a lovely phoyo of a gorgeous little girl with an eglu shaped cake. Looks like a worthy winner to me . Sounds like the judges quite enjoyed the judging process though Did I see a reference to a Christmas baking competition too . Too many of these and Simon might not fit in his Omlet pants too much longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 ooo, now we can't have our pin-up boy getting out of shape and losing his title of 'Top Bot'! grd might be in the running if Simon has too many cakes over the festive period. Must stop talking about pants, I have promised not to mention them if grd comes to the get-together in January . I will be on my best behaviour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Oh, yeah, like THAT'S going to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I know, Phil is used to me being a lunatic, but I'm not sure that the Omleteers are! I have a feeling that Buffie and I will spark each other off, we got on really well at the last get-together, and I reckon that you'll be joining in the fun too They'll all be disowning us!

Popcorn Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Yes, I was - 8st.5lbs after two children - what happened? 8st.5 - I think I was about 8.5 years when I last weighed that. Don't get me started on the weight thing again.....my roll is getting bigger by the day and is having competitions with my bump. depressing Back to the pants things...I've bought Darren a pair of Omlet boxers for Christmas. He'll definalty give Simon a run for his money. I'll get a piccy for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Yup, all pictures welcome. Methinks that perhaps we should have a competition of male Omleteers (or OH's) botties. The winner to be judged by Louise as she is such a Connoisseur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clare* Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 That sounds a fantastic idea Clare. Can I be one of the judges as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Has anyone looked at their newsletter, I was very impressed with myself as I got the picture of the cake I entered on the newsletter. Didn't win, but it's on the top right hand corner of the big block of pictures. Didn't send them in, they mysteriously disappeared... I've just thought of something though, wasn't there ment to be 3/5 runners up, there was only two when I looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Oi, I'm first! There'll have to be a quality test too - to check for ripeness you understand. You up for this Louise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
