Blogging? Me?

Well what have we here? Me, putting my thoughts on a page and then broadcasting them to the world!! Inspired by my beautiful friend Elizabeth, I had been tossing up the idea of doing something like this for a while. I decided to focuse my blog on food, cooking and recipe sharing, which I have discovered since watching Masterchef I actually really enjoy. But I will probably end up writing about all sorts of things. We'll see what comes out!!

I also love photography, though I am a total novice at it. So I will endevour to put lots of nice photos of my blog subjects with each entry for all to enjoy.

So yesterday was hubby's 30th birthday. It was the first birthday practically ever that he had to work. What a cracker of a way to celebrate your 30th hey? Anyway, Miss 3 wanted to make pink cupcakes to take to Daddy who was working close by. I don't particularly enjoy cooking with my girls, because I have a bit of a control issues in the kitchen (amongst other places!) and don't like mess. I decided to let go of this control just for a bit to let my big girl do something special for her daddy. She actually did ok, but I constantly found myself taking over. A work in progress....

So the result of this endevour was flour on the bench and floor, a sticky licked beater leaving mess everywhere, a little girl with cake batter all over her, and 24 gorgeous pink mini cupcakes!

Turns out these cupcakes were one of biggest highlights of Daddy's birthday. Good job baby girl.
