[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 58613, member: 1991"] G'day, all. Yep, I remember those bananas from childhood - and Guides, which is what we called our Girl Scouts. We never added marshmallows, though. Another favourite was damper wrapped round a stick and baked (called twister) then you slide it carefully off the stick and pour butter and Golden Syrup down the tube - absolutely delicious! You could use maple syrup, it would be lovely, but not quite the same. Golden Syrup is made from sugar cane, it comes off the assembly after the sugar but before the molasses. It's also known as Cocky's Joy in Australia. (as in cocky - a slang term for a struggling farmer, a man trying to glean a living off the land). Have a good Friday, all. We just watched a really old Bela Lugosi movie on one of the community TV channels - "schlocky horror picture show" but I couldn't get into it. It was so old the soundtrack was hard to hear. And late - it's Saturday already here. husband was home today, we went shopping. That's when I discovered I'm still not well enough to go out. I can't even do the easy Sudoku puzzles without making lots of mistakes - the brain is definitely shut down at the moment. husband is playing trains tomorrow. I've got my phone back that we lost in New Zealand - we got it reconnected today - and I'm hoping I can get enough sleep through this clogged head, to have a functioning brain tomorrow and finally get some work done. Here's hoping! I'm off to bed. Marg [/QUOTE]
