Monique....can I just ask how Mum brought over the meat pies??? Just curious 'cos I would love to bring some back with us when we visit the UK in the summer, but I didn't think we could bring meat products

ummmmmmmm .... well .... i just asked her and she said that she ticked 'no' on the I-94!!! i'm in shock! i asked her, 'what would you have done if they had opened your luggage!?!?!' she said, 'well, i suppose they would have taken it off me.'

as for the other part of your question ... she froze them (there were 8), along with the bacon, and then just put all the cold stuff together and surrounded it with HUGE bags of Walkers! oh, she also brought some welsh cheese wheels and bread mixes!! i tell you, she was LOADED - it was a largest piece of the luggage set that she used.

today is her 3rd day and we've already made 3 loaves of bread (she's showed me the perfect way to use my new breadmaker!!!), she's made scones ... she's making proper biscuits (cookies) right now with gabriella and then they are making a mince pie. hopefully, they will be done by the time we have to head out to the movies ... Nanny McPhee!!!

daisy .... as much as we love Mum .... she's leaving in 2wks!! we're still newlyweds, remember!!!

I'm now boycotting this thread because you keep making me hungry and not living close enough to share.

(Hope you continue to enjoy the visit though. )

That was funny Monique, you sure got a sneeky Mum there!!! ....but I am not as brave as she is and we will have to fill our faces while we are over there I guess...but every credit to her, she wanted you guys to have them and by hook or by crook (oooops didn't mean the 'crook' thing :no) she was gonna get 'em here!

Enjoy the cookies and scones....my mouth is watering!
