Seasonal Abundance

When we set off for our big-fat-xmas lunch yesterday I carefully nursed a chocolate ripple cake (with layers of fresh raspberries) in the car.

I had no idea about a recent promotion on tv which had inspired the rest of the family to do much the same thing.

    Brilliant! I'd want to eat the one with the raspberries.

    (Word verification is "batch" - I suppose because you had a batch of choc ripple cakes.)

    I don't know about that promotion either. No wonder there was not a packet of Choc Ripple biscuits to be had at any of the shops near us. I grabbed the last 2 packets at a little IGA on Christmas Eve
