Cupcakes R Us

Im really getting into the baking bug again lately.. Today me and Deb made 1 or 2 cupcakes..

Deb wanted them to look good enough for a princess

Only had one so far...23 to go :)

Baking with funkyness

The other day was so much fun..My lovely friend Sarah (funky fairy) & (marmalade files) came up with the idea of a bake along using our web cams.. What a great idea i said! so we decided on a marble cake this week and here is how mine turned out..

It was very yummy!

Looking forward to the next one funks :) x

Sunday roast

I was in town yesterday doing a bit of shopping, thought id pop in to sainsburys to see what they had to tempt me. As i was walking round i thought about a chat i had with my lovely friend Sarah (funkyfairy) She told me they were going to have roast beef on sunday..mmmm i fancy some of that i thought. This is how it turned out..

Look how lean it is :)

Veggies ready

You can't beat home made yorkshires can you

The finished result..looks good enough to eat hehe

Yet more yummyness

I thought i'd do a bit more baking today..fancied doing a tray bake as they're so easy and came up with this..

Deb get away from the bowl..no licking!

into the oven it goes...good luck

oooh looking nice

think it needs something on top don't you?

Thats better..

Cake anyone? 

Sounds so good

Decided to treat our selves to a 2.1 speaker system. i was going to go far a sound bar type but then i saw the onkyo HTX22HDX

It was more than i wanted to pay but after seeing the reviews and with the option of upgrading to a 5.1 surround speaker system i couldnt resist.

What a difference it makes..You dont realise how bad the speakers are on your tv until you plug in a home cinema system.

Choc Choc Cake

When i left school i went to work for my dad at his bakery, used to love it too until he sold up and we moved away. Anyway Debbie is always asking me to make something yummy, so this weekend i decided to make a lovely chocolate cake.

It turned out lovely and moist oh and chocolatey too hehe
