EAT AND EATING

Carmi's challenge this week is everything to do with eating!   A blog after my own heart - I love cooking, and I love eating the results!

So first.........


my treat when we go to Leek to hunt round the flea Market held there on Saturdays.   Nothing like a coffee and a piece of cake to refresh the body   Last Saturday was the first time we had been since before Christmas, the weather has been against it, and Leek, being high up, can get Very Cold!


This photo is nearly three years old - its my younger Grandson's birthday cake for his 18th Birthday.  That's my older Grandson lighting the candles.



And this is the cake we enjoyed a few moments later.   Exceedingly tasty!

Its second Grandson's 21st birthday soon - hopefully more cake!!

Happy upcoming Grandson's Birthday, Gilly.

I'm sure there will be cake, if you want it.

Such wonderfully happy photos! Is that a bowl of strawberries next to the cake? Yum.

You take the loveliest cake photos because they're not simply of the cake: they're of the experience that surrounds it. You've captured that sentiment wonderfully in this series.

I'm also smiling because I used to always start my meals with dessert. Drove my parents crazy :)

Looks so special. I'll have some of the strawberries, please - and a glass of wine!

This smoothie is not hitting the spot this morning, not after seeing these cakes! :)
