A sunday...

Heya ...
 
 
I know it's been a while guys but please, this half term has been crazy busy and it is only going to get busier! Exams are on the way for many and that is the reason I have not posted for a while. However after the next two weeks I will be free to post whenever so don't worry standards will get better I promise you!
 
This weekend has been a rather 'chilled' one although there was definitely some revision that went on as well! After a lovely evening with a friend I was ready to work and I have to say I actually revised this time! No scrolling You Tube or Instagram which is always tempting when your phone is just a few centimetres away.
 
I also made some scrummy cupcakes, red velvet and topped with cream cheese frosting ( Hummingbird recipe  for the icing of course), although I used a recipe (for the cupcake batter) from last year's world baking day website however there is a similar one HERE which looks great!
 
 
I sprinkled a leftover cake over the top and I am quite proud of how they turned out!
 
 
Freddie the dog was also in need of a walk so this little one was a little tired when he got back! It was an irresistible photo I couldn't ignore and I just HAVE to show you all how cute he is!!
 
 
 
I hope you all have enjoyed reading this mainly baking blog, as it is one of my favourite things to do when I need to relax. Don't forget it is world baking day this Sunday (18th) so make sure you pop into your local supermarket to grab some ingredients and the all important decorations for the finishing touches!
 
Love,
Isla
