Did he really say that? Just one more reason to read his books. I so agree with Dickens...and you....but that goes without saying. Oh those sparrows!
I just saw that it was his birthday on Google. Yes, happy birthday to the man who knew how to spin a yarn.
1. What is the food item?
2. Is it yummy?
3. If it is yummy (see 2.) then we need the recipe.
(Did I just tell you all that I discovered Graham cake a few weeks ago? - super yum!)
My eldest girl is reading Oliver Twist right now:)
I know I said this last time, but I thought it again when I clicked here: LOVE the photo of you in the banner. Whatever you were eating was popular in a fun way!

Niamh, some cakes here are called "slice." This is ginger slice.
Cheryl, yup, he really said it!
love love love. my daughter Layla is sitting here over my shoulder telling me all about sparrows. you made her gasp with delight.
I have never had a ginger slice...what is it....spill! Off to your daughter's!
The sparrows are definitely delighting in your leftovers....although I have to say you didn't leave much of your delicious looking delicacy for them to enjoy...much have been really tasty.....
I'd love it if you would come over to my new blog I created for all the photographs I can't seem to get on my created for a journey blog....

i love your new blog header!!
That first shot looks so delicious, and then, what a delightful surprise!
Thanks Bron, the angle that the picture is taken makes it look like cake rather than a slice (there is a difference - but both are pastries).
Do please describe its layers.
A great quote by one of my favorite authors... thanks! And I love the new blog look - very nice. Your SIL did a fine job.

Hi everybody, I hope that I'll be able to post a recipe for ginger slice soon. It's SOOO good!

Those little sparrows are so sweet! I think they felt you were a jolly good fellow indeed for leaving them crumbs of ginger cake. What is ginger cake?
