I love pie!...

♥ Ceri makes...  had my first taste of a delicious pieminister pie this weekend at a cousins gathering of fun times and lots of food!  After a chilly stroll around the Staffordshire monkey forest we nipped to pieminister for a hearty comforting lunch. I opted for mr porky pie ...a perfect combination of pork, apples and sage along with plenty of mash, gravy and beans!

One word = yum!

Cake days...

♥ Ceri makes...  tested out a new cupcake recipe from mummyB's new Hummingbird bakery book 'Cake Days'.  On request from my team at work I whipped up some banoffee cupcakes,  a bit of a fiddly recipe but worth it!

Family festivities...

♥ Ceri makes...  managed to finish my wedding bunting just in time for the festivities over the bank holiday weekend!  Looked lovely in the outdoor gazebo even if I do say so myself!

As well as whipping up the bunting a team of us created some wedding cupcakes and my very talented mummyB had the extra important task of making the Fiona Cairns inspired centre piece cake.  It looked lovely at the wedding breakfast held at Bank restaurant in Birmingham...

A second day of wedding celebrations and even more cupcakes were wheeled out! The proud cake making family team...

Wedding bunting...

♥ Ceri makes...  has spent a productive weekend whipping up some wedding bunting ahead of a bank holiday family wedding.  Stocked up on fabric in Tooting yesterday and set to work this afternoon.  To fit with the wedding colour scheme of pruple and turquoise I chose some complimentary plain, gingham and floral fabrics...

To give it a more professional finish I also stocked up on some natural coloured webbing (eBay is excellent for such things and cheaper than most fabric shops).  So now two metres down,  just another eight to go!
