Theresa May

Rt Hon Theresa May

Here we go

Re Theresa May

As Home Secretary the 'buck' should stop with her.

Blaming Staff like she has done is appalling.

I for one and I am sure all of the public are sick and tired of MPs like her.

She should for all our sakes she resigns

Where is the Leadership and ownership – the accept the money for doing the job
But as always Blame Someone Else.

Time for some more baking - Bara Brith this time

Time for some baking - Bara Brith 

Bara Brith

Ingredients

• Some Tea About 2 tea bags should do! (I like earl grey)
• 330 ml (11 fl oz) boiling water
• 225 g (8 oz) mixed dried fruit
• 170 g (6 oz) self-raising white flour
• 170 g (6 oz) self-raising wholemeal flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp ground mixed spice
• 55 g (2 oz) light muscovado sugar or any other brown sugar
• 1 egg, beaten
  Preparation
  1.
  Make some tea in a tea pot and pour in the boiling water. Give it  a good stir, then leave to infuse for 5 minutes. Place  the dried fruit in a bowl. Then pour the tea over the fruit. Cover and set aside to soak for at least 5 hours or overnight.
  2.
  Preheat the oven to 160ºC (325ºF, gas mark 3). Grease and line a 900 g (2 lb) loaf tin. If you want to sift the white and wholemeal flours, baking powder and spice into a mixing bowl. Add in the sugar.
  3.
  Pour in the soaked dried fruit, making sure you include all the liquid from the bowl, and add the beaten egg. Lightly mix the egg and fruit, then add in the dry ingredients until they have mixed well. The mixture should be soft enough to drop easily off the spoon. Add 2–3 tsp more tea or some hot water if needed.
  4.
  Put the mix into the prepared tin and spread it out evenly. Bake for about 1 1/4 hours or until the loaf is well risen and firm, expect to see some cracking along the middle and a nice browned top. Cover with foil (somewhat loosely) for the last 15 to 20 minutes of baking if its getting too brown.
  5.
  Leave to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Turn out onto a wire cooling rack rack to cool completely. This Bara Brith tastes very good if it is left for 1–2 days before eating ( not that that happens in our house). I am told that it can be kept wrapped in a cool place, for about 5 days. 
  
  
  Was hoping for some for lunch - but its all gone !
