    Yesterday I baked fancy biscuits only they looking nothing like the picture on the box.

    I put the box through the shredder.

    Bet you had a titter when you saw them. Years ago 3 of us mums met each Saturday afternoon for coffee & cake. 2 of us tried very hard making different cakes. Eventually the truth came out, the clever one used a cake mix. This went on for years.
    It has been said that when helping people change their behaviour – “the spirit in which help is offered” is the most important aspect, more than the degree of skills and knowledge of the helper!

    I have not baked for years.
    Back then the children did not notice the discrepancy with the box photo.
    Now I have the family critics who watch Bake off

    Are you a fan Chris?

    Perhaps you should have put the biscuits through the shredder.

    Mr Hamble is rather fond of his industrial shredder.

    They were his idea-picked them up in a shop about 6 weeks ago "these look tasty and very easy to make darling".

    Actually, my biscuits look very much like those pictured on the box - like cardboard!
