Baking & Babies


Yet again, it’s been a little while between posts. I had a whole string of posts banked up ready to go and since then have had little time for baking as our little man arrived about 6 weeks ago! I have been wanting to bake desperately, but soon discovered that a baby actually takes up a lot of time! :) I attempted to make gooey cinnamon cake to welcome back my little brother who was visiting from London, it took me twice as long and I had to juggle preparation in between feeds...I got there in the end. Phew!  What I have found time for is making custom onesies for all the little babies from our birth class. I dug out some felt, ribbon and fabric paint from my craft box and constructed a cross between softie and iron-on transfer. It’s fun, easy to do and most importantly less time critical compared to baking. Hopefully, I will get some time to bake very soon! Mi xo

Gooey Cinnamon Cake


As soon as I saw this post from David Lebovitz's website, I knew I had to make this cake! If you love butter cake and cinnamon, this is definitely the cake for you. The smell of the cake baking in the oven is amazing and the result so moist and delicious, highly recommended. The cake is meant to be gooey, so make sure you don't overcook it! Mi xo
