I decided that I had to follow the recipe to the letter, so I bought a cake
mix this morning, went 25 miles to get rhubarb as my local store didn't have
any and my Mum and Dad have eaten all theirs!
It's been in the nineties all day, but has cooled to about 85 now so I
couldn't wait any longer.
It seems really wierd just putting the rhubarb and sugar on the top and then
pouring on the cream but like I said I just have to try it.
I'm glad I used a bought cake mix because it was a LOT thinner than my usual
cake batter, and I think I might have had a disaster!
Anyway it's now in the oven and I'll let you know what the result is. (There
may be some differences in UK and US ingredients)
Fingers crossed

EERRR?...The recipe calls for a double-cake mix-box as in makes 2
layers...
Bet it tastes good anyways.

It's not a question of where he grips it!
It's a simple question of weight ratios!
A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.
Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

I think ours are typically about 18 ounces.
