Well I had a busy and very cold morning today - here is Ipswich it was -2 degrees and our first frost of the winter has fallen. I was up until 10.30pm last night making cupcakes for miss Ella to take to Kindy as she turns 4 this Sunday!
I made the frost topping this morning at 5.30am and when Ella awoke she dunked them into the sprinkles - quite yummy all by themselves so she tells me.
So off to Kindy Daddy and I go with our mother load of nutrition with Ella trailing behind.
I am covering all bases with respect to the upcoming Handmade Expo in Ipswich next Saturday (16th August) - Kerri (my good friend that helps me at my shop & partner in crafty crime) & I have decided to do some baking as well. As we all know the food stalls at any markets are always the most popular - so to help pay for the stand costs we are whipping up some treats.
We are taste testing this weekend and I have just finished my Choc Chip Slice -
This is an easy recipe for those time impared like me
