I discovered last week that there are 27 people in the grave my grandmother is in. Maybe 37, actually, I think it was 24 in great-granny's grave. We don't know who they all are - it's just that any heir of someone who paid for the grave is entitled to use it, so all these distant cousins keep getting buried in it. <BR/><BR/>Do you have a fool-proof recipe for crumble topping that doesn't involve self-raising flour or baking soda? (though if baking soda is what they call "tartar" or something round here, I can manage that) I used a Delia recipe recently, but ended up jsut chucking in more flour and butter at random until it looked plausible. I think the problem may have been cold butter at the beginning (when I put in room-temp butter, it did what was apparently supposed to do)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
