This year has rattled by and with November now here, it’s only a matter of weeks until the new addition to our family is due. I’ve been trying to get to as many places as possible to promote my book before ‘d-day’, which this week has meant some really fun visits.
A reflective week this week. After a cracking Great British Bake Off final I’ve been looking back at some of my own highlights of the past year.
The 2015 Great British Bake Off final is just a few days away and it marks a year since I started this blog. What an incredible year it’s been and this week’s been no exception.
Another weekend, another food festival, and a great opportunity to take the kids up to one of my favourite places in the world – the Lake District.
It’s been a bake-heavy week (for a change!) including a cracking episode of The Great British Bake Off, that’s had me full of ideas for historic bakes. I also visited Liverpool for the first time and after the best welcome ever, I can’t wait to go back!
This week I threw my B.I.Y. Bake It Yourself book launch party and it’s the most fun I’ve had at a party since I got married. Great turn out, ace company, and a numb hand from signing so many books!
I’ve been surrounded by books this week and not just copies of my own! It’s been really great catching up with so many of my GBBO Class of 2014 Alumni too.
Back from an incredible weekend at Jamie Oliver & Alex James’s Big Feastival – WOW! Flaked on the sofa now with a Chinese take away, enjoying the luxury of dry feet and an inside loo.
A rainy day in the middle of France after a really busy week so it gives me a chance for a quick blog update.
