If you are a great cook or baker, even if you’re not, :-D but your children just love the recipe, PLEASE consider writing it down, because it will be very hard for your children to ask for the recipe after you have passed away. |

Before she died I spent quite a bit of time with my Mum. I watched her as she cooked my favourite cakes and I wrote the recipe down. |

my Mum was a fantastic cook, but she never followed any recipe and never used a weighing scales |

My mum used to make the most fantastic spice cake. She'd make one, put it in a tin and post it to me when I was at university. It always arrived in good condition. |

When we were young, mum used to cook tripe and onions. This is now an occasional holiday 'treat' - if we can find any - that me and my sister cook for our extended family, while 'trapped' on holiday with us. :-D |

It's very difficult getting hold of tripe now, so whenever we go out, I look for butchers shops - and ask!! Most are amazed that anyone still knows about it or even wants it. |

I love Black Pudding .............. there is one butcher in town here who sells it, but it's not as good as when I have it in the UK |

You know when you're going around the supermarket with a small toddler, they get bored/hungry/tetchy? |
