Cakes are surprisingly easy to make it has recently come to my attention. As are pies. This may become something of a problem.

Posted 3rd November 2011 22:23 IP  My recipe for cakes is this which I was given by my mother, I had originally used recipes from cookery books and the bbc website but they did not turn out as well as the ones using this recipe.
Usually to make a dozen cup-cakes.
8oz of Caster Sugar
8oz of butter
8oz of self-raising flour
4 eggs
Sultanas/Raisins/Cherries etc
Cook for 20 minutes approx.

Posted 22nd November 2011 13:06 IP  I used to make pastry in my teens,
but i'd love to be able to do a proper cornish pasty, but i iant got the space. 
btw, I like Dundee cake  Everyone is talking about the closing ceremony at the Olympics and what was their favourite bit.
I just spoke to Nick Griffin, his favourite bit is today when they all fcuk off back home.
