Yum that cake looks so good. My kids still have another week off school (3 weeks in total) I hope I can last another week. The sun is so beautiful in Melbourne today isn't it xo
Funny, I wanted to bake with the kids today too, I had a recipe ready and all. Put it to them this morning, with the 'bribe' of being able to take their fresh made cookies for morning tea on the planned bike ride.
Got a 'no thanks mum' from both, then a 'lets take apart the pasta maker' from the youngest and 'can I do a science experiment?' from the eldest.
I am sooooo not a science gal, or a take-it-apart-and-see-how-it-works gal, baking is my thing. I just had to have a secret laugh and sigh with the hubby, then dismantling and a-sciencing we went.
Both boys are well aware there are plenty of other goodies in the freezer for their morning tea picnic.
Isn't it just the loveliest day? The fog this morning was fun for the kids (and me) and now the sunshine! We have spent it at Heide and then a quick visit to the zoo (madhouse!) .. now home. You have me drooling, it's quite unseemly.
Glad you have some lovely winter weather for your last day of holidays. It's still freezing in Sydney. I really should put the oven on and bake something to keep us warm inside and out!
oh that cake is so nice. baking is something i like to do when i'm stressed. i find mixing and measuring and cracking eggs strangely therapeutic. hope you're enjoying fresh cake! x
How was the first day back in school, sweet Cathie. And how was it for you? Lots of love for the new week my friend. We are painting, drawing, baking and knitting too this Summer holiday o xx o

ReplyDeleteMeant to add - I like your little heart icon - you've probably had it for ages and I've just noticed - but it's very sweet and very you!

Popped in for some mouse star action and now I am firing up the oven to bake your pear muffins. Scrumptious! gxo
