Caz would love to have your support. So if you have the time, petrol and inclination, come join her. Or, if you know any mums in the Peterborough area,please spread the word. (And it’s *rumoured* that this Children’s Centre allows hot beverages. Could this be true?)
There are a few parking spaces available in the car park inside the school grounds. Further parking is available outside the school and in surrounding residential streets. The Children’s Centre is easily accessible from Paston Parkway (A15). The Citi 1 Bus stops on Goodwin Walk just outside the school.

A few of you have asked for this, so here it is.
Van Slyck family top secret best ever flapjack recipe
125g (4oz) Butter
90g (3oz) Golden syrup (maple flavoured is nice)
50g (2oz ish) Muscavado sugar
250g (8oz) Rolled oats
Any nuts, dried fruit etc that you want to add. I normally put in walnuts and raisins and sometimes pecans and almonds. I never weigh them, I just chuck in a couple of handfuls.
Pre-heat the oven to gas 4/180c. Put the butter, sugar and syrup in a large saucepan and heat gently until it’s all melted and give it a good stir. Then stir in the oats and anything else you’re putting in. That’s it! Now you put it in the oven.
Grease a tin with some butter (I use a 7×7 inch tin which is just the right size. A 7 inch sandwich tin works too) and cook at gas 4/180c for about half an hour. Score into slices when it’s still hot and then refrigerate overnight (if you can wait that long) or a couple of hours should do it. In the morning it should come out of the tin easily enough but a bit of wiggling with a weaning spoon or something else plastic will loosen it up. Then you can cut it into slices or just eat the whole lot.
If you want to do the maple icing then melt a couple of desert spoons of maple flavoured golden syrup in a saucepan until it’s runny and then stir in some icing sugar until it’s a bit goopy. Then drizzle it on top of the flapjacks before you slice them all up.
Don’t worry if you don’t have the time to make any, I’ll be bringing some along to the November meeting.
Happy baking!
Love Caz 
What a great meeting we had! We welcomed four new mothers and their very cute babies and had a great discussion about “What is normal?” and when to ask for help.
Stay tuned for news about the next meeting!
