like mother, like daughter!

like so many things in my life, mumma bru was the one who first got me into baking! from an early age i'd be stood on a stool in the kitchen helping her to make cakes (and licking the spoon afterwards!) i would even make my own attempts - once she found me in the kitchen with all the pots and pans out breaking eggs into them! what can i say?!

my mum has fridays off and they were the best days as we would often come home from school to a house filled with the smell of baking and a warm slice of cake waiting! she still carries on baking and puts her skills to good use for her charity Farnham ASSIST (which works with the over-60s). she often spends a whole day mass baking and icing cupcakes to sell at events. the last time she did this i managed to get a few snaps before they were whisked off to be sold at the local 'music in the meadow' event.

so many cakes!

i especially like the cut out chocolate hearts! (all decorations from sainsburys)

i'm getting very hungry just looking at these so i think i may go and whip something up! more posts still to come but for now talk later!

love,
nen
