East - Easter - Eastest

A lot of us were away, but 14 bunnies still turned up for a hop in an Easter-ly direction along Cedar Creek. The weather was well-behaved and the pools alng the creek were very scenic beneath a canopy of weeping lilipillies....

The hares' driveway again provided an opportunity for some members to practice their advanced driving skills.

Here's the recipe for...
Culture's Amazing 3 Ingredient Fruit Cake:

Ingredients
1 kg mixed dried fruit
600 ml chocolate or coffee flavoured milk
2 cups self-raising flour
(plus spices to taste)

Process
- Steep fruit in flavoured milk overnight in refrigerator
- Grease and line cake tin
- Cook at 180/160 (fan-forced oven) for 1 hr 15 mins to 1 hr 30 min. Check with skewer.

Notes:
- May need to add more fluid (alcohol works well)
- Can make your own flavoured milk and hence adjust sugar and fat levels
- Crust may be too chewy - but is thin and easily trimmed off

Next week we'll celebrate Labour Day with an anarchic Keep the Red Flag Flying run set by Toss O'Coin. Catering will be by Potluck.
