Next Time I Won't Be Lazy

I decided as I had too much to do I'd make my New Year Trifle with ready made custard.

NEVER AGAIN!

It's too runny and my whipped cream has sank - well cheesed off.

I did not realise but apparently I have frequently mentioned the Birds Trifle I used to have as a boy. We spent Christmas with my daughter and grandchildren and at Christmas tea-time with much ceremony and as a complete surprise I had my trifle delivered. Made with a lot of love it was marvelous.

Indubitably

I was too lazy to get up and switch on the lamp, Jo. ;-)

You could say it in a French accent.

No surprize there, then:-)

Several Christmases ago I made an 'Italian trifle' using panettone soaked in Limoncello, ricotta cheese, cream and flaked almonds. I used far too much Limoncello and it was very alcoholic. It was divine!

Good afternoon, Melv. Haven't you got some sprouts to peel, for your trifle later?

[melv16]

You must be psychic, Tilly. I've just come back from a sprout picking safari Ont allotment :-)

[Tilly2]

I am psychic, Melv, so watch out!

Sprout trifle is something Liz Smith would have made in TVOD.

My first year of marriage I made a trifle for my Mum and Dad's Christmas visit, in my best glass bowl. Got as far as sponge jelly etc and left it to set. Christmas Eve went to office party (them were the days) got drunk, went home made Birds custard poured it straight onto to the jelly - you can imagine what happened. When it had cooled I decorated the top and put a cake frill around the bowl. Everybody remarked what a delicious trifle it was.
