It took me a while to figure out what a stick of butter in the States was; and when I cook from Delia Smith I have to convert to ounces.

"Out of the Strong Comes Forth Sweetness". We used to have golden syrup on ice cream when we were kids.Valerie Harrison (bellini)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10205920305666658534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567715590164266982.post-20661074596654866452007-06-24T02:04:00.000-07:002007-06-24T02:04:00.000-07:00Those cookies look great!
