Well, I have patients who tell me these things.


Oh, yeah! I'm a moderator! I have to check out all the spammy things that get posted!

How about, I have a son who is in his twenties and he tells me about them?

True, but when I sang it (in my head ), it still worked with the original song... Perhaps that is why I'm not a song writer...

It's magic. Science may say that it is because the chocolate part is denser and falls as the cake bakes, but that is wrong. It's magic.

You sort of spoon the chocolate batter in globs over the vanilla batter after it is in the pan. As it cooks, the denser chocolate part goes down and is enveloped by the rising vanilla part. So when it is finished, it is nice and swirly. That pic looked sort of dry, needs some canned peaches in heavy syrup on the side.

I prefer vanilla icecream. But neapolitan will do in a pinch (or a scoop).


(Yes, vanilla is one of my favourite spices, how'd you guess? It's also the second most expensive spice, saffron being the most expensive. Mmmm... now I fancy garlic, pepper and saffron risotto...)

Nah, they're big in the salad trade. Although I've heard tell that no-one has ever actually managed to accurately count them, or even count the same number twice...
