I think I know what you are referring to, it's based on a type of Bread baked in a Tagine. It's a soda bread that has Butter combined in thin strands to give the layers prior to baking rather than rubbing the Butter in fully. It's almost like Devonshire Scone.

I tried WW many moons ago in Australia during the 90's, whilst I did lose weight, I ended so so frustrated with the recipes, and the points system was difficult to follow,and I did not feel healthy. Counting calories is one thing, but is pointless unless you know the other parts of the equation. MFP is so much better, as…

You should be proud of your accomplishment, if you are happy with you, he should be happy for you, and with you, that's what's important. Being happy is not something you should be depressed about. I am rather reluctant to say that I have been in relationships where vanity has played a part, and one where vanity was all…

Thanks all for the kind words :) BadgerLamb, I hate the term too. I agree, the dogs have been a great help, not only for getting me out of the house, but keeping my sanity also. Standard Poodles are that little bit needier - grooming wise :) Cheers Leon
