I've emailed my friend, hopefully she'll get back to me tomorrow. I suspect she's got her feet up this evening
We can't get capons in the UK any more - the skills to physically castrate cockerels were lost when they started using homonal implants to 'chemically castrate' them instead. Now the hormonal implants have been banned but no one has the skills to revert to the traditional way.
We buy fattened free range cockerels and chickens (they call them all cockerels but they may be either) from a local farm
Your very welcome ladies but I've just read that back.....(after reading about ClarI and her carrots lol). I Apologise, it's a "Banana and raisin cake ha ha" ?? and yes it is very nice and so easy to make..??
Hmmmm sounds very nice, hubby is addicted to them Clari, I have mince meat, but not enough butter today to make the pastry, 100 g short so will may buy tomorrow but the longer it takes to make them, the longer they will last....???

Smashing bake Clarice- just perfect with a cuppa, no doubt.

Nite Dove ?
Night Dove.
I made more mince pies this evening; they're not exactly uniform size! Will try and get a picture in the morning.
Clari I'll eat any shape/size of mince pie so those that don't pass your quality control will be gratefully received
