A very nice lemon sponge cake with lemon curd topping and lemon icing (did I mention I like lemon?) reduced to 60p and 4 bags of sea salt & Aspall cider vinegar crisps for 10p each at the local Co-Op

Don’t ever look at the calorie content of a panettone!
I bought a 1kg one at Bologna airport for €4 in November then looked at the calories per 100g. It’s still in the box, too scared to open!!

My normal diet for the first few days of the new year is cake of various descriptions.
Have only just started on my normal veg heavy diet.

I bake them. Will say that there's a preposterous amount of butter and eggs that go into them, so yeah... But hey...

A lot of Italian cakes in my experience are but varieties of fluff.I bake them. Will say that there's a preposterous amount of butter and eggs that go into them, so yeah... But hey...
Remarketed for different occasions.
ie columba
I much prefer a traditional rich Brit christmas cake/rich fruit cake.
A real power cake

In that case, a self-baked panettone will be a revelation, I can assure you. I used to hate them until I made my first one.
It should be light, but not airily fluffy, moist, rich with butter and eggs, plenty of sultanas and mixed peel, but shouldn't be over-perfumed. It's basically a heavily enriched bread really, not a cake. Think buns or fruit loaf on steroids and you should kind of get the idea...

Green bins (dry / damaged goods clearance) in Tesco yielded a 3kg bag of cat biscuits, 4 packs of wet food pouches, three packs of dog chews, two large packs of rice noodles and a selection of Pukka teas, all mostly 2/3 off the ticket price.
Other YS buys today in Tesco were oranges and limes plus a large slab of rather ripe dolcelatte cheese.
