Lazy Sunday Cupcakes

I had planned my Sunday to be quite lazy, had a stack of DVDs to work through and not much else planned, but sadly after watching 1 DVD boredom set in......

Soooooooooooooooo I headed to the kitchen and this is my latest Culinary Delight

Lamington Cupcakes!!!






Added this pic in cause the flowers are just gorgeous!!

The cupcakes turned out quite well and they tasted even better (even managed to make the icing from scratch!!)

Bon  Appetite!!!

Happy 1st Day of Spring

Welcome to the 1st Day of Spring!!!







It's now time to start packing away the big coats and dusting off the thinner jackets.

Time to start seeing beautiful flowers coming to bloom






But with flowers comes Claritin

Perfect weather for enjoying picnics


Walks at the beach


Time to start eating healthy


Catching up with friends


What are your favourite things to do in Spring???

Culinary Delights

Well I had a few hours to spare this afternoon and I heard the kitchen calling me.  As most of my friends know, my culinary skills are very minimal so when I do finally decide to cook, it can sometimes have surprising results!!

Tonight's Menu:


Pumpkin soup


 Chocolate cake with chocolate icing, to be served with double cream

I have decided that I am going to try a new recipe once a week so I will keep you all posted with my ever growing repertoire of conquered recipes

Bon Appetit!!

A Public Thank You

Whilst on my train journey home today after a LONG day at expo, I had time to reflect on my life and realised I have some pretty amazing people in my life:

- My boyfriend James, who loves me no matter what!
- My AMAZING 5 besties; Chenoa, Poonam; Bec and Sian who I love spending time with and always make me feel amazing (if if I don't feel it)
- My awesome FCL training buds; Kelly, Kelly, Leilani, Hannah, Brooke, Renee and Ash - I love being able to catch up with you and having a good ol' chat
- My FCL team mates, ex team mates and friends I have made since I started working for FCL! You are always so supportive and put up with me when I'm stressed out, or having a random moment of craziness.

Old friends and new, I am truly grateful for having each and everyone of you in my life and I guess I don't say it enough but I love you all loads and loads. My life is truly better with you in it!!!
