Beautiful and very tasty post. Happy PFF.
How wonderful! A fabulous postcard AND a recipe for baked beans! WOW!
Happy PFF!
I really shouldn't have read this when feeling quite so hungry. It sounds delicious! I believe black treacle translates as molasses.
Fun, colorful card! Now I'm hungry! Happy PFF!
It would probably be easier to open a tin but great card.
My mother used to make baked beans from scratch. Usually they have molasses.
I googled treacle: "Treacle is the generic name for any syrup made during the refining of sugar cane and is defined as "uncrystallized syrup produced in refining sugar"." from wikipedia. Lyles golden syrup ought to do!
Judy, I should prepare for the day when you stumble upon some cool cards for me. I should have something in exchange for you. :)
Tasty one!
