So as to give Hairchopper some breathing space... . while she moves house, and to keep this thread at the top of the m/board (and provide ourselves with some light entertainment), why not, those that are waiting for the recipe, guess one ingredient each, that would/could be in the recipe. I'll start: MIXED SPICE.

I thought it was only for one item... . . Gives an indication on whom is waiting or watching... LOL. Think this will be interesting in what comes forth as it gets further on... Cheers.

Re # 60 - Yes you'rre quite right - oops. I had wanted to put up my post about also guessing at the quantities, but I put in another ingredient too. I only realised what I had done, after posting it! ! haha Hope you all enjoy my idea. The end result could be a brand new recipe of it's own.

Re #63... . . One could then look at quantities later on and fine tuning it a little, personally will throw in an interesting ingredient later on if required LOL ... . by then this special one has come forth but in the meantime, a great exercise to be had by all, Cheers.

I think this thread is starting to come close ... to the infamous Whakatane Intermediate Slice in its avid following and salivating punters up and down the country:-)
