timetable - 2008-08-03 19:53:00

Winnie -- post 208 and 209 Prenzel's do a lovely mulled wine concentrate that you mix with hot water. I imagine it would also be perfectly nice mixed with cold lemonade.

mamabecs - 2008-08-03 23:54:00

Jo Seagars Pecan Pies are nice nibbles for Xmas. Mini chocolate muffins dusted with icing sugar look cool. Decorate mallow puffs with runny white icing and top with red and green.

Spicy Fruit Compote and BUMP...... Crockpot for 5 to 6 hours on LOW

3 large granny smith s peeled cored and chopped
200gms dried apricots halved
200gms dried peaches chopped
100gms glace pineapple chopped
1 pkt crystallized ginger chopped
200gms raisins
200gms prunes (orange flavoured ones are nice)
150gms figs chopped
150gms dried pears/mangos chopped
2 cups orange juice
¾ cups raw sugar (or brown)
