That's a really interesting dish -never seen it before but it looks just delicious! Btw, which function did you use to create those 'sweet', 'savoury', etc sub-sections? And how'd you get the recipe names underneath the titles? I've got no idea how to use this new blogger version. Thanks in advance!

budding cook,

i've been busy getting things ready for tet. I'll post the meme soon. :D

tubby,
i'm learning to use this new blogger version too. To get the "sweet" and "savory" sub-sections, you just have to edit your template.
