Whilst I was away...

I know. I've been neglectful. I'm a horrible blogger. I've been baking, but not blogging, due to a crazy amount of college work, and volunteer work whilst I look for an actual job.

But the point is, I have been baking.


A raspberry crumble tart happened. It was... phenomenal. Scones happened too. I have a recipe for those, and it's coming your way soon. I promise.


An impromptu strawberry and apple pastry thing happened too. It had a soggy bottom, but it was yummy.


Apple pie, anyone? We got given a load of apples, and an apple pie was calling to me. I have pictures, I have a recipe, but... You'll have to wait :) I'm baking a load this weekend, including mini apple pies, so keep an eye out for that.


I love strawberries, don't you? Whilst this doesn't really represent anything I've baked, it does represent the sheer number of fruit salads I've made this year. I love them. What's your favourite fruit salad combo's? I'm a big lover of apple, kiwi, orange, strawberry and pineapple. Now I'm hungry.

Of course, another crumble happened, too. This one's apple and raisin. Too much crumble, not enough sugar... It could've been better. See, I admit to my mistakes.

Right now I have some brownies in the oven. They're a Christmas present for my friends at college. I'm praying they turn out alright. I've never made them (successfully) before. Wish me luck.
