I love your show and tape it everyday when I cannot be home to watch it in person. I just notice that there is a difference between some ingredients that are on the show and the actual ingredients that are on the printout. eg the Best Ever Pavlova had 8 egg whites on the Sow and the printout says 10 egg whites. It changes the other ingredient amount slightly. Thanking you. I do not mean to be critical as I said I love your show and have tried a lot of your recipes and have loved everyone of them. Valderie
