Wow, I tried this last night and loved it. Since it's chilly outside, I added a little cinnamon to warm it up and my roommated went crazy over it. Definitely a dessert that will be made in my house quite frequently!

i didn't prefer it, it had a funky taste. if i was to ever make it again i would definitely put in less orange juice, and less ginger snaps. maybe its my fault, since i generally don't like ginger, but even without it I just didn't care for it.

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper)
I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke)
On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
