Snapshots from my week

 Happy Friday! I’m looking forward to a lovely sunny weekend with plenty of outdoor time! Here are a few snaps from my last week –

I enjoyed some soft corn bread from the Cheese Shop in Nottingham – they have yummy cakes, breads and other treats, as well as cheese! I also treated myself to a few items from Cath Kidston with my birthday voucher – a Cath Kidston spatula, a lanyard (for my work pass) and some cute stickers. I’d always resisted the spatula in the past due to it being £6 but I am so glad I got it – its very well made and does a great job!

I used it to make some mini heart shaped rainbow cakes (as well as some teal and purple layered ones) to enter into a Bake-Off – in case you haven’t read my Rainbow Cake post, you’ll need bright and concentrated gel colours to achieve colours like these! I won’t do a post on the cakes on Kerry Cooks, as mine were a little rough around the edges and this great tutorial explains how to do it better!

I also ate a lot of delicious strawberries and cherries – loving the fact that all of this amazing fruit is in season!

Funfetti! I made funfetti pancakes – I’d wanted to make them a couple of weeks ago for my birthday but didn’t end up doing it. I love how fun and cheerful they were!

I also made a tasty pasta dinner with mushrooms, onions, pine nuts, olives, and a creamy nutmeg and yoghurt sauce.

And I ended the week with an impromptu ice cream in the park on my cycle home!

Enjoy the sunshine! I hope you have some lovely plans to make the most of it?
