I try to take cake to Zac's and that's led to me receiving marriage - and other - proposals. Last week Nige said, 'I don't suppose you've changed your mind about not marrying me?' and Nick said, 'You should have moved in with me last week when my wife was away - and you could have cooked for me.' Um, yes.
Well, this week, not a single proposal of any sort. I said to Nige, 'What? My lemon cake not good enough?'
'I was late arriving and only had one piece; I couldn't base a proposal on that.'
Men are so flighty.

Who us? Pass another piece of that pie can you?
As a father I have a major problem here Liz...
My daughter... she is a brilliant cook - esp baking the Victoria Sponge she made this weekend was sooooooooo nice. Don't talk about the Dutch Apple Cake she baked me for Father's Day...
However this is a problem - this will make her far more attractive to men than anything else. I need advice on how to keep her baking skills a secret from the men in the world. :-)
I've always been very monogamous, but on the other hand, if the right woman offered me the right type of chocolate cake, heaped with extra chocolatey icing, well, anything could happen....
I hope my husband does not read this...he might exchange me for a good cook in a minute.
He didn't realize marrying a career woman, did not make her a cook.
My career may have included a profession whose symbol, "Rx", which in Latin, means "recipe."
Oops! wrong kind of recipe!
If he dies of malnutrition or starvation, I may be charged with a lifetime of torture and murder.
I was going to suggest that you change cake recipes, until I read Nick's comment, I believe you are right when you say that they are a tat fighty.
Mind you I have always believed that anyone who believes the way to a man's heart is through his stomache is aimming a little high.....lol, mind you this does only apply if you are unrelated to said man.
I see what you mean about my blog, it does freeze but once loaded it works fine, I suspect, it is because I have loaded 3 slideshows on to one page, I won't do that again, but thank you for the heads up.
much love Lia xx
indeed, amanda!
I think you may be downplaying daughter's other attractions there, furtheron! Maybe a father's unwillingness to imagine a man seeing your daughter in the light you once saw her mother! (I don't mean that you don't now see Mrs F in that light just that ... oh you know what i mean!)
I do a mean chocolate cake, nick ... But I won't offer you any!
You obviously have other attractions, nitwit!
I suspect those organs are closely linked though, lia!
