A proper little housewife.
I have had the busiest two weeks, ever. All I seem to have done is sleep for 6 hours, go to work for nearly 10, come home and watch some TV or bake a cake (more on this later) and then fall asleep again. Ugh!
I think that work has been so crazy because we’ve had visits coming up and for some reason all three of us (manager, other supervisor and me) have been in working moods - hey, anything to make sure sales are up and we get a bonus! - which doesn’t happen very often. Don’t get me wrong, we do everything that we’re meant to but usually one of us is hyper or something and starts suggesting hauling everything off shelves and washing them. Gosh, that makes the shop sound dirty and it’s not!
Typical, I’m off work for the weekend and I’m blogging about it. Must stop that.
Anyway, I have discovered that I can bake. From scratch. Using flour and eggs and butter. Seriously. I am so impressed with this considering I can burn pasta.
Over the past few weeks I’ve make cupcakes, tray bakes and cakes. I’m especially good at making coffee cake. Two slabs of coffee flavoured sponge cake, one with sultanas through it and held together with cinnamon icing. If I could remember the recipe I’d post it, but I sort of just make it up as I go along!
So since I’m oh-so-good at baking I’m making the boyfriend a cake for his birthday which is next month. Anyone with any great recipes or ideas please let me know.
