Or that chicken, or…yeah, having Mom cook is lovely, isn’t it? Problem is, I’m now the mom. Ha. Lately it’s been my husband I’ve barely seen – my kids are too young to run around alone yet but I know my time is coming!!!

Can’t say the same for my 18-year-old. I may have heard Archie and several of his mates early Friday morning. Did he happen to be in a Fargo, North Dakota, hotel, making a lot of noise at 3 a.m.?

However, I think I would have been more than tempted to make enough time for your cooking Charlie. 😉

I don’t cook for the Glam teens so much unless I know they’ll be here. That constant rushing from friend to friend and then dropping off the laundry can get to you. But somehow they make up for it all when you sit down to a family meal and are regaled with tales of their exploits. Edited I’m sure! GG

All gone before 9am. I think they way you melt chocolate and then scrape it is a much better and more beautiful way of doing it. I just didn’t have the time so ‘cheated’ and just grabbed a block of cooking chocolate and ran it up and down the mandolin. It worked okay as a quick-fix but yes, your way would have been better! xx

I’m sure your Phil and my Archie would get on brilliantly. If he’s ever heading to Canada would you like me to let you know or keep it to myself???

The cake looks delicious and likely were the first to be sold! The chocolate shavings look amazing. I usually melt chocolate onto a metal pan and spread out thinly; then I scrape it up with a knife – you get nice big thick curls! But your way sounds much easier.
