Hmm. If by top and tail, you mean slice off top and bottom - no. Then again, our berries come pretty much stem-and-tail-less, so there isn't a need. I'd say if yours have pokey bits you'd as soon not eat, top and tail away! Otherwise just pop them in whole!

Turbinado is also known as raw sugar (one US brand name is "Sugar-in-the-Raw"), or demerara sugar and it's unbleached and unrefined. (Therefore much less chemical-laden). It's a sort of amber color, and comes in a larger grain, maybe the size of uncooked cous-cous. Not only is it healthier, it has a 'richer' flavor than bleached white sugar, and retains some healthful minerals. It's really lovely in tea or coffee!

Do let me know what you think! :D

Things I need to remember:
• Asking for help is not, as it turns out, fatal.
• Laughing is easier than pulling your hair out, and doesn't have the unfortunate side effect of making you look like a plague victim.
• Even the biggest tasks can be defeated if taken a bit at a time.
• I can write a paper the night before it's due, but the results are not all they could be.
• Be thorough, but focused.
• Trust yourself.
• Honesty, always.
