The other day I added "small bottle of rum" to the shopping list. MrB took it with him yesterday evening as he would be coming back from his event past the Co-op which is twelve miles away so not really for nipping especially during a fuel shenanigans.
He got a rum drink by mistake because the store was just closing and there were no tills open so he had to self-check out. So that meant the plastic cap thingy that they put on spirit and licqueur bottles was not taken off.
This turned out to be a good thing because what he'd picked up was not what I wanted. Today he took it back with the receipt, got a refund and bought 'simple' rum. Phew. He also did a load more grocery shopping and got some petrol (good cos I need the car to get to work).
But....... embarassed face....... I've forgotten what recipe I wanted the run for!! ?
Grans to the rescue, please! Can you suggest things I might have needed rum for? I think it was a sweet recipe though not rum baba or anything that obvious. Nigella Lawson's name is flapping about in my head too although that might not be relevant as I made one of her recipes recently.
Feeling like a right daft 'aporth ?
