It rocks, big time. There I was in the hairdressers this morning, half my head covered in foils when in bowls the village parcel postie woman. She is often the one who delivers my random ebay packages of fabric and yarn, so we know each other quite well by now and she likes to bring the occasional biscuit for Mr Rex. She spotted me under my tin man hat and bellowed "hallo, I've got a parcel for you". Me, being a tad brazen, asked if I could have it there and then. "Alright" came her response and off she went.
Back she came, not only with my hot new purple patent summer 2009 Birkenstock Madrids, but better than that, an Amazon parcel containing....."the hummingbird bakery cookbook". Joy!
Picture the scene, me (head full of foils), Becky (hairdresser extraordinaire) and Sam (junior teasey weasey) all drooling over the sumptuous pictures. I can tell you that the foil time has never passed so quickly whilst I flicked through the pages. So now I just have to contemplate what to make first. What do we think? Plain vanilla? Red Velvet? Lemon cupcakes? Ginger cupcakes??
My vote definitely goes to Lemon Cupcakes. Yum! But what is Red Velvet? Curious...
ReplyDeleteI might try the 'red velvet' when you are here, apparently they are a big hit in the US and in "Steel Magnolias" Julia Roberts' character had it as her wedding cake. See, I even know cake trivia.
