Congratulations Lori, I thought I'd get in first to pass the 'Fan of the Month' baton on to you. The month goes quickly, and it's sad that I can no longer tell people that I'm 'Fan of the Month', but you are a worthy successor. Hoss

Here's a recipe for Bonfire Toffee. It's a traditional British candy, made especially in the north of England around Halloween and Bonfire Night. Ingredients: 12oz/300g demerara sugar (turbinado sugar should also work) 4oz/100g butter 2 level tablespoons of golden syrup 1 level tablespoon of black treacle/molasses 2 fl oz/4 tablespoons of water Method: 1) Put all the ingredients into a pan (the mixture bubbles, so use a big enough pan). 2) Heat slowly, stirring until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. 3) Bring to the boil. Cover the pan, and boil gently for 2 minutes. 4) Uncover the pan, and continue to boil for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. 5) Test by dropping a little of the mixture into a cup of cold water. It should seperate into brittle threads. 6) Pour into a buttered 6in/15cm square tin, and leave to set. 7) Turn out on a board, and break up with a small hammer. Recipe makes about 1lb / 500g of toffee. When I was younger, it used to be sold in those old-fashioned candy stores with dozens of jars lining their shelves. Sadly there aren't many of them left .

Dice - Finley Quaye This is a beautiful song that features the talents of Beth Orton and William Orbit. Beth Orton's original version, Roll The Dice, first appeared on a 1993 album called 'Superpinkmandy', but sadly only 5000 copies were pressed for a Japan only release. That was unexpected, but brought a smile to my face - just what I was looking for.
