Well...they're out!!

...and nope I didn't burn them- they look just like the piccie in the recipe

OH keep wandering into the kitchen checking how hot/cool they are.

I wonder why????


And so- come and help yourselves peeps

[Glutton4...]

Well, the sun came back out, so I cut the grass instead!

Now stopped for a cuppa, pass the goodies over. . Don't tell me they're all gone already!?

[Glutton4...]

Ah, that reminds me, whilst I'm here. What's the easiest plain sponge recipe, please? Stables chum, and chief cake-maker to the whole county, is undergoing her first chemo treatment this weekend, for breast cancer, so I thought I'd make her a cake for a change. She decided that Lemon Dribble cake is what is required.

I've probably only made three cakes in my life, so assistance is required!

Just finished my dinner Nicos but i will take a couple for later this evening for when i get peckish..

[Hazel at the Hill]

Ooh - don't mind if I do, Nicos, ta.

Just back from the Hill with lots of goodies. I foresee in my future an evening of bean processing!

Coffee and a catchup, then a run - it's a beautiful evening here.

[Green Gerkin]

Just watered the garden so time to sit down with a nice cold fruit cider and enjoy the evening sunshine.
Hope everyone else is putting their feet up now.

What do you want - sponge cake or lemon drizzle? I'd go for lemon drizzle - none of that two layer with jam nonsense to throw you out.

Just mix it up and bung it in a tin.

Actually - Nigel Slaters orange marmalade cake is easy peasy. Tell us what you want, and we'll put a recipe up.

Cheers Matey, I found a simple one, but we don't appear to have any sugar, so it won't be made today. I will try to remember to stop at the shop tomorrow.

Youngest GG has gone to spend a week in Scotland today, with the Girl's Brigade, so hope the weather is not too bad - luckily they're not camping.

She'll have a good time Flo no matter what the weathers like.

[Hazel at the Hill]

Phew! Back from a haaaaaaaaaaaaaard training session. But good.

Time for a quick bath before pub time.

Rosie has been totally told off by visiting springer so she has decided discretion is the better part of valour and she is in her crate. Cat took one look at him and went back upstairs. Hopefully they are both glad of their own special safe places in their home.

Visiting dog - he is happy to visit!

[Hazel at the Hill]

I'm sure that the animals will shake themselves down, Jeanie. Hope you get extra cuddles from Maisie (rather than her sulking!).

Time for me to turn in - it's a shiny new day just round the corner.

Wishing you all the sleep of the righteous - even if you're not!

Well had a rally busy day today, spent an hour at the quarry waiting for the main man to turn up(which he didn't.) Went to OH's house in Notts which is rented out at the moment, and cleared up the rubble from the wall that was demolished by a break away caravan, picked up some cake making stuff and made my first batch of edible lace, and learnt how to do wheat weaving, so 2 new skills in 1day.

P.s. And finally caught up with the gos on the vine
