{Baking} COCOA BERRY DESSERT BROWNIES … with Linwoods Milled Flaxseed, Cocoa and Berry Mix
There’s more to life than chocolate, but not right now. Anonymous THUD! It was that all too familiar noise of the postie chucking a parcel over the gate again. While I braced myself for probable disaster & broken bits of parcel, the son raced out yelling, “Mama, must be something for your blog!” Excitement writ on his face, the expectation of a new foodie flavour or recipe lighting up his life, he does enjoy the little joys of my blogging. A foodie through and through, he was spot on! Came in waving a brown floppy parcel, his eyes searching my face for a ‘go ahead’ to get to the contents!…

It’s difficult to express in words what we all experienced, maybe pictures will help explain. Was impossible to imagine virtual hugs turning into reality, but it happened?

Pink Peppercorn & Chocolate Chip Shortbread … Off to the FBC with the kick of peppah!
“The more you have to do, the less time there’s to get it done in” Aparna’s Law Barely a few hours to leave for the Food Bloggers Connect in London and I am still hopelessly distracted. So much to do, so little time. And then the hair brained idea to use pink pepper in cookies. It keeps taking over my insane imagination, even though I knew I had so much more to do. Loose ends to tie, brownies to bake for the kids snack box, a pound cake to make for them too, apples that are lying on the kitchen counter crying themselves hoarse to be baked into dessert. I…
