Hoodia

The Hoodia is giving me a phenomenal appetite, worryingly, but I shall persist. Last night made a tray of fudge - no recipe of course - just a large tablespoon of crunchy peanut butter, 2tbsps cocoa 3 cups sugar, large lump butter and 3tbsps cream heated up and stirred for ages. Had not set by this morning so put back into pan, emptied a bar of cooking choc and another cup of icing sugar into it, stirred for a bit, emptied some spanish toasted almonds onto buttered tin, and poured the smooth thick mixture in. Looks as though it will set.

Oh dearie me.

Due to finish the sauerkraut, now soup, for lunch with a bit of soda bread.

The guys have been and plumbed in the new machine. They had some fudge and pronounced it delicious. I may be speaking too soon, but all looks OK with the machine.
