    Thanks Dove, Roland says he’ll have the croissants, I’ll have the pot of coffee.
    Ive had a packet of desiccated coconut and a recipe book sat on the table for a week now, must get round to making those biscuits. 
    Rain forecast for the next three days, plent of time for cooking then😀

    I've got a hankering to bake a cake while OH is at work ...


    I've got all the ingredients ... not quite enough ground almonds (someone's nicked some to add to their muesli  :/) but I'll up the polenta to make up for it.

    What is it that we like about gardening?  The fact that we gardeners really deserve our bacon sarnies and cake ;)

    I prefer a sausage in my sandwich, although bacon would do :)
