In fact very little of that bag of Cadbury's made it out of San Francisco! And those few that did were judiciously rationed until I got all of my requested material out to those who asked for it. After that there was a Cadbury massacre to celebrate. The truly bad part was when my brothers found the empty bag tucked into my Nationals scrapbook. I was already in trouble for showing them the big bars La Campbell brought me from Oz, after which I pronounced said brothers "dead meat" if they touched them. When they found out I had devoured an entire bag of REAL Cadbury's from ENGLAND NO LESS. Lets just say I will NOT be getting a good Christmas present from either of them this year.Louisa Cornellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971924594129471055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-6882837475270128712008-08-22T21:57:00.000-04:002008-08-22T21:57:00.000-04:00Your recipe does sound good, but I really don't en...Your recipe does sound good, but I really don't enjoy cooking anymore, always trying to figure out what want to eat.<BR/><BR/>I'd love a chance at Sea Fever too. :)Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13363922982973526678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-26531660129506000912008-08-22T21:53:00.000-04:002008-08-22T21:53:00.000-04:00Welcome Virginia!
