About me
I'm 70 (can't believe it!) and work part time as a Carer in the Community. I have lots of interests which include cooking, family history, breeding West Highland White puppies, making porcelain dolls and mohair teddy bears. My husband has been ill for some years and retired through ill health in 1982. I worked as a secretary until I was 65 but soon got fed up with staying at home. I'm looking forward to trying some exciting new recipes and making new friends.

Hi Valanne, my niece (32) makes wondeful preserves and when she has made enough we do a stall at a local farmers market. She is always on the look out for unusual recipes. She has done a lot of research into very old recipies, but also favours chili ect. Whats your favourite preserve ? Caroline

Thanks for that. I will make a note on the recipe. I'm going to try making the biscuits and adding some grated orange or lemon zest, then making a matching filling?

Hi Valanne, I´m glad you did the cookies and you liked them, they are fantastic.
About the grs. in a cup depends on what you are measuring, butter 250 grs, also flour, others weight 300grs. so I would use 250grs.
Have a nice day
