Another week down! Time seems to being going simultaneously really quickly and also crawling by just at the moment, and I for one am really struggling to figure out which day is which. Lockdown brain, hey?! It's definitely a thing. I also can't quite believe that it's been nearly a year since everything changed, but there we go. There's so much still to try and digest about everything which has happened over the last twelve months, am I'm hopeful that being able to reconnect with our friends and families over the coming weeks will allow us all to get a sense of comfort, much like those little rituals which have kept us ticking over since March 2020.
As regular readers will know, for me, baking has been a real saving grace, and it's something which I've really loved having more time for during lockdown life. I've had a chance to try new recipes, and get a bit creative- as I did with a recent cake- a vanilla sponge festooned with flowers- an ideal treat for Mother's Day, to welcome in the weekend, or to have ready to go for the next episode of celebrity Bake Off. As always, BBC Good Food is my go-to for this recipe:
There you go! A lovely sweet treat for the end of the week!
Have you baked anything new recently?
