I love it how the kids want to lick everything after cake making - no wonder they want to help when they know what's in store for them.  I get to sort of lick the TMX blades (using my finger) because it's too dangerous to give the kids  ;D  What a dear little boy Amanda and what a great crop of thick hair he has.

Thanks everyone! He's an amazing little guy, but I'm somewhat biased... He's incredibly well-behaved (I don't always feel that way, but gentle when we visit or get visited by other kids remind me very quickly), and given everything's he's been through over the past 12 months he's very happy & bubbly. But his hair! Don't get my started on his hair JD - it grows like no-one's business! It drives me insane. He gets his haircut monthly, very short (number 2 not he sides, number 3 on the top) and within a few weeks it's this long and thick again. He gets that from his Dad - no chance of baldness in that side of the family, that's for sure! It's a pain, because I can't do anything with it to style it, gel won't hold it down for long so he wears a lot of hats... lol. It is nice to run my fingers through while we're snuggling on the couch of an evening though, I must admit.

LOL great to hear there were a hit Astarra ;)
I think I might try something like that sometime. How much pork do you use to how much gravy? I'm always worried about my pie filling being either too sloppy or too dry :-\
