Summer Holidays, Day 40/47
Day 40/47 Wow, it's day 40, which means it's only one week now until school goes back! I've gotten used to being in holiday mode though, and although I know Hayden will love getting back to school, I'm not looking forward to making school lunches again!
Hayden had a little friend coming over to play this afternoon, so we spent the morning making mini cupcakes and then decorating them. It was almost a disaster though as just after we'd put the first batch in the oven, I noticed the butter still sitting on the bench! We'd weighed it out and put it to the side whilst we were getting all the other ingredients ready, and then completely forgotten to put it in! (Maybe baking and photographing don't go so well together after all!) There wasn't much we could do other than wait for them to cook and then do a taste test. It was all thumbs up though (Hayden giving them a 10/10), so in went the next batch, and the decorating commenced! Now, I just wonder if leaving out 60gms of butter makes cupcakes a 'healthy' treat ; )
And for the record, the kids loved the cupcakes, and they were devoured very quickly!
