Way to go Sandra, you did a great job with this. I now feel I know you a little better. It will be interesting to see what Robyn comes up with next. I am sure it will be entertaining. May I ask how your brother, I believe his name is either Ian or Ivan, is doing? Blessings.

What a lovely person you are, Alie, thank you. Ian is keeping strong, but he is going through a stage of one foot forward, three back at the moment. We still have faith that he will come through this. He has so much wrong with him though, not only the cancer, that seems to be stable at the moment. He was born diabetic and because of the amount of years he's been injecting himself, it has started to tell on his body. He's had to have more amputations, and his heart is not good, BUT, he is staying focused. He is inspirational. Thank you, my friend. And thanks for the review too!! :) Sandra xxx

Hi Sandra. I enjoyed reading more about you. The sponge comment in #2 kind of threw me. Not sure what that means. I'm in agreement with #7. Marilyn

The sponge. You are the second one who has mentioned that, I guess it's not what you call a cake. It's not cake as such, it's much lighter, airy, and very soft... spongy soft. I suppose that's why it's called a sponge. I don't know what else to call it really. It's supposed to rise in the oven, but mine normally go flat and hard, hence the biscuit. LOL Thank you, Marilyn, for reading mine. :) Sandra xxx

The word "cake" clarifies. I thought you were trying to create a cleaning sponge. I'm LOL on this one. :) Marilyn

LOL! I have now edited it to say 'sponge cake', isn't it funny how certain things are named differently in other countries? Makes life fun!

I'm so glad I could help. Adding 'cake' clarifies it completely. :) Marilyn

This is lovely Sandra! How does one make a sponge? I wasn't sure if it was a cake or a real sponge you bathe with - if the latter I am into all natural so would love to have the recipe LOL. Well done and thank you very much for sharing it.

LOL!! Oh, I must put a note in, it's a sponge cake, but light and airy, at least that's how they should be. Mine are rarely successful. The art is in the beating, you have to put as much air into the mix and keep it there when you fold it into the cake-tin. Thank you, dear friend. I'm glad you enjoyed learning a little bit about me. :) Sandra xx

Well done Sandra, I generally don't like these type of "quizzes", I would be "too humble" or stupid, or just silly. My wife would be the best one to answer, at least she'd be honest! But they do look like fun, and you've been clever and gracious my friend, well done, blessings, Roy

You are right, it wasn't easy to do this, but so many of the others told me to have a go, so this is what I came up with. Thank you, Roy, you're always so lovely. Bless your heart. :) Sandra xxx
