He knows me so well...


Now that I've finally cleared up from Christmas - well almost - I can show you what Santa put under the tree for me this year... My very own Nigella red (I believe that's an official colour now!) lovely chunky Kitchenaid...swoon...

I believe BH finally buckled under ren years of hints and figured it was a bit like self gifting as he gets to be official cake taster! He also got a great bargain online which made it altogether a much more palatable purchase.

As for me I still have to stroke it every time I pass, I can't wait for all the Christmas grub to be used up so that I've got a good excuse to start baking again!

And thanks to freerangenan I've also got a fab new kniferack - the one sitting behind my lovely red Kitchenaid ( did I mention that already!) so thank you to my lovely family for totally totally getting me x

  8. Great gift great colour!
    I'm actually here to invite you to put your gardening on to the Folia Garden website (free). I've got a day off and decided to do a bit of recruiting to get more UK gardeners on there. Here's a link to my Folia page so you can see what it's like and hopefully it'll temp you to share your garden there too. www.myfolia.com/gardener/CDfolia/invite

    It lets you list your plants, seeds, log photo's, journals and mark milestones like flowering, harvesting etc. so it's great for keeping track of everything, which has been lucky since it turns out I have 800+ plantings, I had no idea until I starting logging them on Folia last Feb.

    Hope to see you there too. Happy Gardening New Year.

  9. Gosh - you did very well this Christmas. I'd be lost without my kitchen aid (she is called Big Bertha) so I wish you many happy hours mixing ahead of you ;0)

  13. Oh, so nice to see you blogging again. After your post about the Barcelona skirt, I'd begun to think you actually run off to Barcelona! Great to have you back on the airwaves. :-D Love your new kitchen buddy.
