Pecan and Maple Bundt Cake- Nigella’s Kitchen.
Once again I’ve lost my way a bit with my blogging. I have all these posts in draft on my laptop but that’s as far as they’ve gone during the last month. A lot has happened in the past month. I’ve been on a trip to visit my brother, sister in law and their gorgeous…

Maple Syrup Cake
It’s been a long time since I’ve done a blog post update. I shouldn’t have any excuses as it’s the summer holidays and I’ve got much more time than I usually have. But summer holidays also means a chance to catch up on a long list of jobs I don’t get done and the blogging…
