Baking mania

This weekend we're having a social fest - we've got two sets of friends visiting. Not only is this momentus because this indicates we have a kiwi social life but it marks another moment of baking mania to provide for our guests.

So tonight I've been baking and preparing for tomorrow's brunch that will follow a walk with my girl friends and afternoon tea for a friend of MT's. I'm relying on Nigella to see me through so fingers crossed the catering will be stressfree.

It was a real joy to be pottering in the kitchen with a podcast playing on our magic radio and a glass of wine on hand to add to the evening pleasure. For such a long time I'd be imagining me baking in my big kitchen designed to please me and there I was actually doing it. How cool is that!

Now to complete the evening, I'm going to settle into the last episode of Cranford to see if anyone else is going to die or whether there might at last be a happy ending!
