Good morning sweet friends. Have I got a treat for you today. These cupcakes are so delicious, the first mouthful will stop you in your tracks. More of an experience really, not just a mere piece of cake. A velvety chocolate cupcake topped with a swirl of silky smooth coffee swiss meringue buttercream and expresso ganache. Well and truly a next level cupcake.
Hello sweet friends, how lovely to have you here. Thanks for popping in. I hope you are able to take a few minutes out by yourself with a nice hot cup of tea or coffee and enjoy this post.
Hello Dear Ones, how was your week? We had a bit of drama yesterday with one of our daughter’s taking a lovely ambulance ride to hospital with the most chronic migraine I have ever seen. Poor love, this one is our quiet, steady soul and to see her so distressed was quite unnerving.
Hello Lovelies, how was your weekend? Thanks for your patience with this week’s blog post. On Friday night as visitors arrived and I was doing last minute party prep, our water pump decided to have a little tantrum and stop working! My sink was full to the brim with dirty dishes, we hadn’t had dinner, bath or showers, and most shockingly, I had no water for my afternoon cup of tea! ( yes, I know) We had to meet clients at 7pm to load my party gear at the venue and finish up sorting flowers. It was a big night, which left literally zero time to work on my recipe. So, a heartfelt thanks for your patience. x
Hello friends.
This week we remembered our son’s 16th birthday. Our baby boy, Noah, died when he was only 11 days old earth side and he now lives in Heaven, not with us.
Good Morning friends. It’s Mother’s Day tomorrow and I have the perfect cupcakes to spoil your lovely Mum with. A light vanilla cupcake made with lavender infused milk and French earl Grey tea. Just pour your Mum a nice hot cup of tea and serve her one of these sweeties and she will love you forever.
Oh that’s right, she already does.
Good morning Lovelies,
How has your week been? We were blessed to have big sister home this week, which brings much delight to our household. The younger girls all squibble to sit next to her at meals, go places in her car and get as much attention as they can. She has true celebrity status. It’s really nice watching the sisterhood develop as the years go by and true friendship emerges. This encourages me through the years of sister sass!
Hello Lovelies. How was Christmas? We had such a wonderful time with my parents and all of our chickies at home in the nest, including our sweet granddaughter who was undoubtedly the star of the show. As we all sat around the dinner table, my husband noted that there were four generations of family together. How good is that? We are blessed indeed.
Hello Lovelies. How’s your week been? I’ve had a few broken nights sleep this week. A few more than normal really. Our five year old still prefers Mum and Dad’s bed to her own and tends to be a bit of a wriggly worm. I secretly love snuggling up to my little darling, but sometimes I do wake up feeling more like a grizzly bear than a loving Mama bear.
Hello there dear friends. I have been sitting on this recipe for a while, as real life cranks up a notch and time for my little hobby baking seems to vaporise in front of me. Somehow I managed to whip up these treats and photograph them on my favourite new / old rustic cake tin. They were delicious and give a bit of a WOW with the cute mini caramel apples on top.
