do you have a favourite?

I popped round here this morning and I could definitely relate as I have also had a few favourite teacups that have succumb to little accidents.
It truly is distressing at the time...until the new favourite of course comes around.

Do you have a favourite cup that you MUST use all the time?
.....or is it just me.. (between you & I, I also have a favourite spoon aswell..obsessive, not I)

I think it's time for a cup of tea actually, enjoy ♥

    I'm a mug girl myself and have a collection of favourites. I'm trying to teach myself to be a tea drinker though just because I want to buy sweet teacups.

    I'm with Tinniegirl...I have a mug, one with a picture of Maddie on it when she was about 8 months old. My Mum got it made for my husband last year but somehow...I have claimed it :)

    And there is nothing better then Cathie's homemade "special tea" made with that nice healthy spoon of honey, for extra goodness.

    Great to hear your voice today Cath.

    Big kiss,

    I am a mug girl too tho I do have a collection of special teacups that come out at tea parties. My Mother-in-law bought me some for my birthday last year that I can't stand and I'm not sure what to do with them now.

    I am a mug girl and I most definately have a favourite. It is pink and looks like it is knitted. I got it from Spotlight. I also use the same bowl every morning for breakfast.

    I use a mug which is the perfect size and makes me laugh - it says 'John So is my bro' across the front.
    It's my husband's but I haven't made it available to him for years!!
    As you can probably guess, there is nothing elegant or attractive about it - but I love it.

    I have to admit, I made my husband a jumbo mug a few years back, for his coffee. But I too have claimed it as my own, and love that I can fit about three cups of tea or cocoa in it!

Have been thinking about making Honey Jumbles for a while and saw them over at Liss's the other day and definitely had to try them as they look and believe me they smell soooo good!  My critics advise me they are delicious and very moreish. Honey Jumbles ingredients 90g butter 3/4 cup honey 2 cups plain flour 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 1/2 teaspoons mixed spice 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 tablespoons milk   icing 1 egg white 1 1/2 cups icing sugar, sifted vanilla extract  strawberry paste Method Place butter and honey in a saucepan and slowly bring to the boil over a low heat.

Reading the ingredients labels on ice cream I feel at a loss trying to figure out what all those numbers mean, I mean really, it’s just ice cream, how many ingredients need to be in there after all. I love to try and make everything from scratch so why not ice cream, well I had a go and using an ice cream maker made it really quick and easy. Here’s a basic recipe I made using a Cusinart ice cream maker Berrylicious ice cream Makes 1 litre Ingredients     ¾ cup whole milk   ½ cup sugar or honey if you prefer 1½ cups cream 150grams mixed berries, thawed and slightly mashed with a fork Method U sing a mixer or hand whisk, mix milk and sugar in a bowl for a few minutes until sugar has dissolved   Add cream and mix until combined Turn the machine on and pour the mixture into freezer bowl, and let it mix until thickened, about 25 minut...
