a semi-successful trifle:

i forgot to soak the sponge in juice prior to the jelly so i had to add the green jelly as my IT guru likes the sponge and fruit set in jelly. anyway it tastes good, but the custard i bought was a bit disappointing, maybe next time i'll make my own.
ABC* ginger bread people:



the first time i have ever made proper ginger bread. very yummy.
one thing i discovered was it was better for the ginger bread to be a bit on the thicker side - it stayed nice and chewy, the thinner ones were a bit to crisp. also, without an over timer it was a bit tricky to judge 10min cooking time - so each batch i did turned out different (i only had 3 trays, but about 6 - 8 trays of biscuits! hence several cooking batches).
