yet more cake

you are great you know. I've had such a week of baking you wouldn't believe it.
and it worked.

I feel much better

if only it were as easy for the car.................. (still waiting on a part.......)

I've made Tessa Kiros's carrot cake recipe, which was great - AND I got to use a cookbook that I own and have never cooked from, tick one off the list! but I used a different recipe for the icing, as I didn't have the ingredients, or the energy to walk to the shops (no car...........)
there's been rhubarb and orange cake, I can't pretend I was trying to be healthy, it's just there was rhubarb waiting to be used up, and it has SO much sugar in it. good though. especially with some cream.
and there's been some chocolate brownies, no raspberries in them though. but still good.
there are NO photos.
nothing lasted that long



tonight there will be lemon drizzle courtesy of the coffee lady which is funny because she was the first commenter picked by my random number generator

send me an email with your addresses and a little something will find it's way to you.



Miss K will be VERY pleased about the lemon drizzle because it is her fave, and she's got SAT's all week, and is getting a bit weary. lemon drizzle to the rescue!

and just in case you think I grew these amazing tulips, I didn't, just photographed them whilst out trying to walk off the odd cake related calorie or two...........

other efforts to offset a few calories have been garden related, whilst J has been trying to build a greenhouse base I've been trying to protect everything from frost................... so far our veggie patch is growing a lot of baby poly tunnels xxx
