A few favourites....

You know you must be feeling healthier when you get back into things you love doing......

Like baking sweet treats and decorating them - for my lovely mumsie's birthday



Lemon cupcakes.....



Lemon butter cream icing (mum is a fan of lemon)



Pretty plates... and pretty decorating....



I also tried doing this... first time ever



My mum-in-law is the most amazing woman to learn from for bottling/preserving etc.  We got given a STACK of apples recently, and I had to do something.

It took time, but was a simple process.  Looking forward to the super quick apple crumbles etc to come as a result!



Of course, I had to throw one in of the sidekick.  She's pretty cute I reckon.

Pizza making....

Mummy is making pizza for dinner.... rolling the dough, chopping the toppings, smearing on tomato paste

Princess is sitting on the kitchen bench...... "helping"....

Mummy turns to ask her something, and immediately forgets when faced with this

Tomatoes are pretty expensive this time of year.  I bought one big one in yesterdays shopping.  Princess thought it would be a yummy afternoon snack..



I couldn't bear to stop her.....

 

This is what was left......
