Making Baby Burp cloths...
towelling and backed with some nice soft muslin
My mum used to tell me that her mother-in-law would always change a recipe slightly if she gave it out - or leave something out so no-one could ever make it like she did.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I inherited my mum's genes and consider it a great compliment when someone asks for my recipe....
... so due to popular request ....
(and with no changes to the original recipe!!)

Easy peasy to make (you know I only cook easy peasy)
it is a bit sweet.. so not to everyone's taste...

GRANNY'S MAGIC MAYONNAISE
1 tin condensed milk
2 egg yolks
1 tsp salt
2 tsp mustard (any will do - my favourite is 1 tsp of hot english, and 1 tsp of seeded)
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 cup oil (I used olive oil but any nice vegetable oil will do)
cayenne pepper (I like a hefty shake)
Put all in a bowl and whisk till it thickens.
Keep in fridge....
Nice with salad, nice with cold meats, nice to dip your toastie in...... I haven't eaten it straight out the jar but that's probably nice too!!
Linking up with Melody's Tuesday Treasure .....
I love my family and bloggiefriend favourite recipes - I have some others HERE - all easy peasy

The burp cloths are so cute...and I don't think a mom can have enough of those! The mayonnaise sounds very yummy, indeed. I'll have to get Jeff to make up some...he loves doing things like that, and I really enjoy a nice mayonnaise on my sandwiches! :o) Thanks for sharing your recipe!
XOXO,

Thanks for the recipe; might try it none day:-) Love reading your blog. Oh,yes,men are the same all over,I`m sure. Your star block looks perfect and glad you found the TupperWare bowl!
Fabulous burp cloths what an excellent idea, never saw anything as lovely as those when my older son was a baby.
Those burp cloths are adorable. Thank you for sharing the mayo recipe. I'm looking forward to trying it.
The recipe is something very similar to the 'salad dressing' my mother used to make when I was a little kid. Thank you so much for sharing.

I love those burb cloths. Thanks for the inspiration. I happen to have new baby girl a friend is having to sew up something for and this will fit in the basket just great.
glad you found your recipe sounds good.

Burp cloths are adorable!! Magic Mayo made by you!! Wow, you have so many talents. Hugs, Kim
Cute cute burp cloths. I wonder if my hubby would like that recipe. I might have to try it.
Your mayonnaise sounds yummy. And easy to make too.
Yummy mayonnaise Fiona, gorgeous burp cloths...
Have you ever made it with the homemade version of condensed milk??? you might be able to reduce the sweetness a little that way. I will besure to try it your way first, and use it with toasted tomatoe sandwiches.
