40 days and 40 nights - well 39 actually

The cake queen is back. After a long 39 days of no cake or choclate in my life, I went for a cream tea on Easter Saturday. Why do this to myself? Not sure actually. Much will power was needed. It was hard and am glad cake and chocolate are back in my life!

A selection of chocolate scones, with chocolate sauce; divine smooth chocolate tarts; mini hot cross buns; brownie and chocolate bunnies. All washed down with a pot of English Breakfast tea! Heaven.

Happy Stir up Sunday!

Today is Stir Up Sunday. The last Sunday before Advent.  I made my xmas puddings today, after soaking the fruit is brandy overnight. They are now steaming away in the slow cooker for several hours. This process makes them very moist and full of flavour. Stir-up Sunday dates back to Victorian times, when cooks prepared the Christmas pudding by stirring the mixture and adding silver coins as good luck token!
