Wow Diane, you're lucky to have so much fresh fruit :)
Dinner cooked by my boyfriend was delicious, not very healthy though.... Am having some natural yoghurt with honey now & a glass of water-will continue eating healthily tomorrow!

Here you go, Diane. o/ I think this should be right up your street, as I remember you once said that you loved semifreddo. ;)

I love the name 'semifreddo' don't you? It sounds really classy! :D

Very disappointed that no one (except for me :roll: ) got my hilarious (and long running 8O ) ignore the offer of chutney joke. :wall: :confused: :rolleyes:

EJ and Diane, are you extremely kind ladies still offerring to send me a jar then? :D Surely though, won't it be a right palaver for you to pack it up securely enough, and not to mention very expensive, to send through the post?

Of course we got the joke, Preston -- but we're not offering SPAM just chutney!

Happy to send you some -- have a surplus of stamps and who knows -- you might decide to sell it in your National Trust shop.

Ooh now that sounds just delicious, I'm gussing that I can make it without the alcohol (only because it costs a fortune to b*y - I do have a friend who loves this) and a very good memory. I had some devastating news when I went to Pizza Express on Wednesday evening - Semi freddo reale is off the menu 8O :tears:

Lord Preston obviously thinks that us commoners don't understand high brow conversations

I know that I'm lucky but plums are taking over my life this week ;)

I'm sure making it without the alcohol would be fine. However, whilst the Disaronno brand of ameretto is expensive, this make comes in significantly cheaper and seems to get good reviews ;)

Thanks for that but I was just checking to see what I needed to b*y and I had forgotten that I had made a Tirimisu a few months ago hence had some of the above product in so I'm very happy.

I know what I'll be making tomorrow afternoon. I think that I may get banned from this thread as I am not doing much healthy talk.

Just made the Plum and ameretti semi freddo and it's divine o/ Plus a plum crumble but it does have oats on the top and finally reached the end of the plums.
