Baking Day

March 5th, 2007 by Sarah

We had Robyn with us this morning; got music practices out of the way first thing, waved the girls off to school, and then hit the supermarket.

Came home and put everything away then started on far too many baking projects at once – I followed a recipe very close to this Orange and Almond cake (which is dairy and wheat free, haven’t tasted it yet but it looks fab), and Pumpkin scones again. Josiah made some Melting Moments … and Robyn ‘helped’ us both ;) The kitchen was a right state by the time we’d finished, but hey, the floor needed doing anyway. So bad for me to have nice baking around the house though!

Steve popped home for lunch, and Em came to pick up Robyn, then after they’d all disappeared again Joe and I did some maths and some music theory from workbooks.

We discovered today that the PS2, with its fantastic adjustment for LegoStarWars, now won’t play DVDs or for that matter run any other games, so they’re going to have to complete the game! So after Joe had done his workbook pages I let him get back to the game … and I suspect Anna will want to join in when she gets home from school, too.

    Well done there Steve :-) so has he gone back down in their estimation ?

    Doh! Keep getting caught whenever it says ‘dairy free’….I get all excited, then find out it’s got eggs in!
    Can Steve fix cameras too??
    Mine’s on it’s last legs! I have to enter date and time and I can’t always be bothered and the battery casing’s kaput….I could go on….or I could just cry….

    Here I am! What a good day. I went with Chloe to Group, Daddybean blogged and I managed to get here!

    Lovely to catch up on all your posts.

    Got here via your comment on mine again. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. Very, very strange.

    So, until the next time . . . byeeeeeeeeeee

    Don’t think so!

    It’s a sad thing when 3 times in four days counts as ‘good’ :(

  9. Sarah Says:

    Well I guess that depends on how many times you tried!
