...and make yourself some Anzac biscuits. The home-made versions of these biccies are so far ahead of shop-bought it's not funny and they're ridiculously easy to make.
Mine are courtesy of a Bill Granger recipe but there are heaps of recipes on the internet (or ask your Nana, she'll probably know one off by heart).
Whatever you do, don't call them cookies, or a digger might (quite rightly, if you ask me) come over to your house and wash your mouth out with soap.
Eat your Anzac biscuits in front of the Collingwood/Essendon game tomorrow.
This is something I look forward to every year, not because I like either team (they're Carlton's sworn enemies) but because there's a really good chance half a dozen of them will beat the crap out of each other, be hauled before the tribunal and be out for several games.
But that's just me.
Whatever you do tomorrow, have a good one.

Oh I love Anzac biscuits! I want to make a giant one :) It'd be fun! Mmmmm Anzac biccie...
Well here's that professional sports players can't be good sports and behave innapropriate for you to eat in front of :) (every girls dream :P)
now they do look yummy. how about the recipe for the nana challenged among us please.
any team that can beat the s..t out of collingwood is good, but when the mighty blues do it, now that does make my heart sing.
Gail, I think you and I might have been separated at birth. Don't know if you watched the game but it was an absolute thriller (the Pies lost at the last minute). Here's the recipe for the Anzac biccies:
1 cup plain flour
1 cup desiccated coconut
two-thirds cup brown sugar
1 cup rolled oats
125g butter
1 tbsp golden syrup
half tsp bicarb soda
2 tbsp boiling water
Preheat oven to 160C. Place flour, coconut, sugar and oats in a bowl. Mix well.
Melt butter and golden syrup in a saucepan over medium heat.
Put bicarb and water in small bowl, stir to combine.
Add bicarb mix to saucepan and stir. Pour over oat mixture and stir everything together.
Roll tsps of biscuit mixture into balls and place on greased and lined baking tray, leaving room for spreading. Flatten each ball gently with a fork.
Bake for 15-20 mins or until golden brown on edges. Cool slightly on trays before transferring to wire rack.
Makes 20.
thanks for the recipe Michele and I hope the cold is better.
By the way long lost sister, try spreading melted dark chocolate onto the backs of the anzacs. Orgasmic delight!
