I doubt seriously that you told hurtful stories about your mum. Certainly not intentionally. Sometimes our families can be quite sensitive. But I am sure your mother knows how much she means to you. Her lemon layer sponge looks wonderful! Great thing about your mum, she raised a lovely daughter. Well done! And you may tell her I said so.

The sauce can look a little curdled but go with it, it tastes divine. I can't bear thinking about how I'll feel when my mum dies - I know I will miss her deeply.

I think I have that book but have never made this pudding. It looks absolutely wonderful and I feel compelled to make it as soon as possible......weekends are when we do puddings at our house.<br /><br />Cherish your mum. I know you do anyway, but mine passed away ten years ago and I miss her every day. She was a great cook of ordinary food and would have regarded this as way too posh - she would probably never have cooked it herself but would have loved it if I had made it for her. She loved a good tuck-in !!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2718701145803848252.post-16571452898605423052013-01-19T16:27:46.672+00:002013-01-19T16:27:46.672+00:00I often think the old recipes are the best ones.

It's made me very nostalgic. I remember back in the late 70s and early 80s that everyone seemed to be making a version of this sort of pudding. (Maybe that's partly to do with the new-fangled microwaves that were becoming available - you can make a version of this pudding in the microwave). I've got one or two old Good Housekeeping books - I've definitely got to dig them out.Phil in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15904292856978631382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2718701145803848252.post-67215209515930569612013-01-18T09:12:17.219+00:002013-01-18T09:12:17.219+00:00It was - I feel like making it again as the snow&#...It was - I feel like making it again as the snow's coming down...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838426651793558151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2718701145803848252.post-72170385640503786022013-01-18T09:11:57.844+00:002013-01-18T09:11:57.844+00:00:) thanks Table - I will confront him the next tim...:) thanks Table - I will confront him the next time I see him and tell him he has you to answer to!

The thought of her turning up to hospital with a huge bowl (pretty much like the one above), still makes me laugh now! :D And no, I wasn't up to eating any!
