Ikea Knightley vs. Twiglets

The simple answer is of course NOO WWWAAAAYYYYY....

Dot Twiglets

Ever since I enquired about buying the domain names twiglets.com and twiglets.net every now and again I get an email from the .net owners asking me if I'm still interested in buying - for an ever decreasing price. Today, I was offered the domain again. I'm not interested. I like the one I've got. However, it did get me thinking about how things might have changed to the Google search rankings for the keyword Twiglets since I launched this here blog. Well, things have changed although I doubt it has much to do with awholelotofcrunch.com. Look below to see where things stood just over a year ago,

If we don't count the ads, twiglets.com comes in seventh and twiglets.net is nowhere to be seem. Now, let's travel forwards in time and see where things are today,

Searching for Twiglets, originally uploaded by noodlepie.

Awholelotofcrunch replaces twiglets.com at the number seven spot. In fact .net and .com are nowhere to be seen for pages and pages. Even my Twiglets flickr set comes in at number 10. So, there you have it; half an hour of blogging per month and Google loves you :)

Now that's what I call supper volume 1

Bibliogirl wants to please her man by treating him to a nice tart at dinner time. Like any self-respecting Twiglets fiend, once she's in the kitchen she's itching like a fox with clap to find a way to squeeze her Twiglets onto the dinner plate. Ladies and gentleman, I give you Baked smoked salmon cheesecake with Twiglet base,

1 small packet of Twiglets (25g, I think)
1 heaped teaspoon butter

130g cream cheese
1 egg
1 tbsp double cream
40g smoked salmon
2 tbsp grated cheddar cheese
salt & pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350F / 180C.

Melt butter. Crush Twiglets (I used a grinder to grind them finely, which worked well) and mix with melted butter; press into base of individual springform pans.

Beat cream cheese, egg and cream together until well combined. Chop smoked salmon finely and add salmon, grated cheese, salt and pepper to cream cheese mixture. Divide between pans.

Bake about 20 minutes. Cool in pan for an hour or so, then refrigerate until ready to serve. link

Sounds like a crunchtatsic winner if ever there was one. I would like to know how the recipient reacted though...
