So yesterday I mentioned two things in my blog post, one my Hubby’s love of Jamie Oliver and also my new passion for Harris + Hoole, the coffee shop that I have discovered and fallen in love with, so continuing with these subjects I bring to you my version of…
Custard Cream Bars
Now I am not sure how to describe these Custard Cream Bars, they were not what I expected, but you know me, I just love scouring the internet for new recipes, I love something a little different, but I must admit that the downside of finding recipes on Pinterest is…
Gluten Free Peach Cake
I promised you cake and here it is and what a great day to be given cake… its Friday !!! I love baking on a Friday as it means that we have cake for the weekend and I love nothing better than a nice piece of cake with my morning…
Date Slices
