Kevina does it again :)

Afternoon everyone :)

Sorry for being such a bad, bad blogger, hangs head in utter shame. I promise to do better in the future :)Been soooooooo busy. Kevina has done us proud again with one of her random cake baking jaunts. Details and piccies below :)

I hope you are all well I have been sooooooooooo lazy. I am still in my jammies at almost 4pm. Pickles must have known his Dad was off work and let us have a lie in. I still woke up b4 9 though, that darn body clock. Got my OH up at 9.30 to watch the cycling on the Olympics. Totally lazed and grazed all day. Can’t honestly remember the last time we did this. We don’t even get a lazy day at Christmas lol. Watched the TV and read and just devoured a gorgeous man sized portion of a sticky lemony toffe steamed pudding Kevina made. Pure torture as it had to boil for a couple of hours and it smelt gorgeous.





Guess I’d better go and get dressed. Not even done any housework yet. We were hoping to go out for the day today with my OH being off for a fortnight but the weather is really icky. Hopefully it will improve by tomorrow. Off to get dressed and go blackberry picking now. Catch you all later.

I hope that everybody is well and having a lovely day and (hugs) to those who aren't or can't :)

I shall be popping bakc on later to upload some cards :)

Cheers ears :)

OMG, home made custard creams, warm from the oven


Feast your eyes on these ickle babies :) Aren't they just divine?



My DD has just made a batch of home made custard creams as most people know they are my vice. I utterly adore custard creams to distraction even though most of the time things out of a packet don't match up to home made.But I was addicted to them LOL. No more shop bought for me my DD has been given strict orders to make up another couple of batches. One to devour straight away and one batch to allow the custard to cool. We ate them straight from the oven. They were all warm and squidgy with just the right amount of sweetness. The warm custard cream oozing down the sides hugging itself in its own gorgeousness, pure unadulterated heaven.



I shall pop back on later and add the recipe and method for making them along with a slimmer version for those of us watching our waistlines substituting the sugar for granulated sweetener. But for now I am going to tease you with some more mouth watering photos.


A piccie of them in their full glory. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


A close up of said warm, squidgy custard creams, oh I can smell them for here. Divine

Until later.

Cheers ears :)
