I had one of those great big boxes of Thorntons left over from Christmas. So I opened them today - ate four,gave the rest of them to youngest daughter and (new) boyf (on first visit here)

 

They have eaten the rest of them

 

I think he and I will get on well ... so long as he carries on loving my daughter and eating my chocolate so that I don't get fat

Ok, what's that? It's obviously a Scots thing and different to the suet dumplings we have in stew or broth 

 

Edit, just seen the pic 

it has nutmeg, fruit  and cinnamon in it .Yum.

Hmmm, see, I think dumpling is something that pads out a stew, that my ole nan would make. That wouldn't go too well with coffee!!

 

What's dumpling, erin?

 Ditto Rexi.... made of suet...

I know!!!!! You are all staggered! I am actually beginning another (and my last...because I WILL succeed!) quest to lose weight. I lost 6lb last week and will not ruin it. I will be 40 in 12 months  and am determined I will not be this fat when the big day arrives. I won't be slim, but I won't be this fat either!!!!

Oh, we do the suet dumplings too, but we call them doughballs.
