Mini cornettos


Wow, these things are great. What a magnificent idea! We were at a braai/BBQ yesterday with some new friends and they produced a boxed of mixed flavour mini cornettos. I think I might just have to install some of them in my freezer. They are big enough to satisfy a dessert/ice cream urge, but not big enough to make you feel guilty... perfect.

A friend that we met at the wedding in Malaysia introduced us to a really great group yesterday, all couples from SA, Oz and the UK, and all about our age. I think this group could be a lot of fun. They've invited me to a gathering on Tuesday afternoon (it's a public holiday here). I'm looking forward to it.

Barra brith and being blessed

Barra Brith They say you start 'nesting' when you are pregnant, well, it's true - I've been into baking these last couple of weeks. Today I decided to make Barra Brith (Welsh tea loaf) for my colleagues, since it is my birthday. What a disaster! First it overflowed, surgically welding itself to the intereior of our oven, then it burnt on top whilst remaining raw on the inside, then it rufused to be extracted from the loaf tin. I wouldn't be surprised about any of this with my track-record in baking, but I made exactly the same thing using exactly the same recipe last week and it was 100% successful. It still tasted great though - once I managed to extract it from its tin. I'm not, however, looking forward to dealing with the oven! That can wait until the weekend. Hard times I've had a number of emails from friends recently telling me of the death of close friends and accidents that people have had; it has made me realise just how fortunate and blessed we are...

Cleaning cloths #plasticfreejuly

At the start of the year, while we were on a campervan in the south island I discovered these amazing bamboo cloths. They're supposed to be a replacement for paper towels, but they're so much more than that. We have a big tub of them in a kitchen drawer and use them for literally every kitchen cleaning task.
