This afternoon I had some friends over for afternoon tea. I'm shattered now, I've been cleaning and baking all day. The Tea Party went well though and everyone was stuffed.
I made a chocolate cake, recipe was from Nigella Lawson's Feast cookbook, and its the old fashioned chocolate cake recipe.
I also made a Victoria sponge with homemade Lemon Curd filling. The girls love my lemon curd.
We also had cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off, pate sandwiches and egg sandwiches.
We drank out of some china that I picked up at a car boot sale last year, and boy did we drink some tea today. I lost count of how many cups we each consumed.
I also made some coconut macaroons, I LOVE coconut.
My friend made a scrummy banana loaf.
Still had a fair bit of choccy cake left. It was rather yummy but very rich. Hubby will be having some in his lunch box.
Woody said he like some cake........
Needless to say after all that cake, I didn't want any dinner, and I'm still full.
