Why have I never thought of it. You know I'm on the look-out for one now.<br /><br />I once got very ill after eating mincemeat and whether it was a coincidence or not I can't make myself try it again. BUT we love our fruit cakes and I must get my special bowl before I mix those up. They also make great gifts ( for those who love fruit cake.

I'm sure that we could come up with a little creative mischief and a lot of laughs and giggles, LOL. I could even bake a cake :) I would love to visit your cottage, too.
