Tapioca ... jam, or no ?

[joggerjayne]

I don't often bother with a pudding, but today ...

... I have a tin of Tapioca in the microwave

(I took it out of the actual tin, obviously)

Yes, I am ... a domestic goddess.

But does it need a blob of jam? or no?

[pericat]

Apricot!

[lardhelmet]

Tapioca? Is that the frog spawny one? Dollop of golden syrup mebbees?

[lslowry]

is that the one that looks like frogspawn? i used to love it at school with the blob

[lardhelmet]

No Islo - the stuff you had at school WAS frog spawn - just pretending to be tapioca (was at our school anyhooo...)

[joggerjayne]

"Ding" ... woo hooo !

Sorry, Doc ... I'm going for "no jam"

In fact ... I might just eat it from the jug.

Just going to fetch my gourmet pudding ... hang on ...

[joggerjayne]

Back ... !

Peri ... why would I have apricot jam in my cupboard ??

Yes, it's the frog spawney one. It's scrummy.

[society]

you must be rich with pounds... :)

first you were giving away £10,000 and now you are giving up $100,000 up to a million £s

[sara3]

Jayne, you do surprise me. how can you eat that stuff? :o/

[joggerjayne]

Wrong thread, society.

I'm just having a bowl of Tapioca !

[pericat]

It's the best jam JJ that's exactly why or peach - you tell me - you're the DG !

[joggerjayne]

Oh, sara ... it's yummo !

It does remind you a bit of school, but I love it.

I was looking in the cupboard for something to snack on, and there it was ...

... a tin of Ambrosia Tapioca !!

=0)

[MOUCHA]

I would go for 'conserve' jj (but then I am a gourmet)

[joggerjayne]

What is a DG, peri ?

Is it Alpha Jolly code ?

[sara3]

when we were at school we had semolina (ick!) with this orange colour syrup that tasted like cough medicine.

gross!

[joggerjayne]

MOUCHA ... I just went for naked Tapioca ... no jam/conserve.

Wonder why the tin didn't have a ring pull ?

Hope it wasn't an ancient tin.

I don't remember buying it.

[MOUCHA]

Just check the number on the flat door first and if it is yours then you might worry!

[joggerjayne]

Oh, sassy, I adore semolina.

I even bought a packet of real semolina once, to try and make my own.

I did follow the recipe, but it was a disastrous failure, so now I stick to tins.

I like the way it gloops out of the tin, and it's still tin shaped (until you heat it).

[pericat]

It could be and it should be JJ - look to your post above and tell me what a DG is !

[boxtops]

Sorry JJ, tapioca was on my "last thing I'd eat" a few days back, we had it at junior school and one day they kept me back til 3pm because I just couldn't eat it. Now semolina, that's quite different, definitely jam please!
