I made the best fudge last night. It was a labour of love. It took maybe an hour and a half to drive round get ingredients, cook it, set it; people got pissy at me for taking so bloody long over everything, but god it was beautiful in the end.
Fudge making is a trip back to my childhood, when Ali and I spent years making and tasting and perfecting recipes. The aim is to get it a little bit squishy like at fudge cottage, but not so that its dripping in oily crap. Just so it's smooth and rich mmmm
And I did it, I did it! First time ever that I've got it just right! And I've been trying since I was nine.
Then, mother gives it all away to visitors. My beautiful creation is gone.
