    I made macarons and finally managed to get them right :D The first trayy were a bit too dark due to the oven being too high (trial and error) so hubby and I have scoffed them sandwiched together with some leftover vanilla buttercream.

    Just taken some tea bread out of the oven - will be taking some to work tomorrow.

    I got a freebie today - a colleague at work was given the Hummingbird Cake Book (the new one with the pink front) and she doesn't bake at all so she gave the book to me:D

    It has lots of really nice recipes - just need to decide what one to try first. - Has anyone tried any of them and have any specific recommendations?
