Oooh, I love cheesecake. I wouldn’t dare bake it, though, as I need to lose pounds and not gain them. I think I just added 5 pounds to my waist reading the ingredients.

OH GrannyMar! You’re evil! I’m glad Clare doesn’t read this blog because she’d be in the kitchen straight away! No biscuit crust? Sounds deliciously dangerous - yeh I know I don’t have a sweet tooth but I do like cheescake. . . .*stars at what was once a waistline*
