A Foody day

We bought a mixed box of eggs today which included some duck eggs.  We had a go at baking devil's food chocolate buns.  My little helper gets all the ingredients out, we substituted the soured cream for natural yogurt...

A spot of impromptu colour sorting...

'Folding' the yogurt in...

 Into the cases...plop...

I like how he took his glasses off to get right in there...

We didn't have much in the cupboards toppings-wise, so had to be a little creative with nuts etc...

he didn't seem to mind, there was chocolate and glitter after all...and the result...

Ro went for the glittery one, I tried pistachio.

Lunchtime, I know from experience that pretty food always gets eaten...

this was mine actually! There's no way I could get him to eat avacado. the plate was the same apart from Ro wanted 3 separate fillings: nutella, honey, peanut butter.  I often wonder what other people give their children to eat, do I give them enough etc...both mine are grazers (like me).

After school we needed to go to the post office, so came home past the allotments.  M stopped for ages to watch a man digging over his plot, when we got home she got the tools out...

Lastly...don't you think snowdrops look so much prettier from underneath?..

Lots of shades of green in my post today, Spring is in the air...Nx
