CULINARY SKILLS?!

Remember this cake?

My fudge cake - the cake I make for others if I'm contributing a cake.

I haven't cooked one since Alice came home, until today. I burnt the cake slightly, but thought it would be OK. Fudge icing fudged rather too well and I couldn't spread it.

You can see the result - I rang D and explained that I wouldn't be bringing the cake after all! Had a slice with lunch, despite appearances, it was delicious as usual!

Believe it or not these cakes were made from the same recipe!! Motherhood obviously isn't helping my culinary skills.
