Hi guys!! Seen as today is E aster, Yesterday me and Tony decided to make some Easter cookies. We followed Tanya Burr's recipe as the are so delicious. To make the cookies more Easter appropriate instead of adding chunks of dairy milk we decided to add crushed mini eggs and also mini cream eggs cut in half. If you would like to know how we made these delicious cookies then read below.  Firstly pre-heat the over to 200 degrees celsius and line your baking tray with baking paper.

Spring has NOT sprung | Snow in March!

Image
Hi Guys!!  It's March so on the 1st I text my saying 'white rabbits foot'. Every first day of each month me and my dad try to be the first to text or say to each other white rabbits foot. We have done this from me being a dot and i don't know why we do it really. I think it may have something to do with having good luck for that month if you say it first. I always like to try and win though because i am slightly competitive.... It's meant to be officially spring in a couple of week.  It defiantly didn't feel that way on Friday. I woke up to snow! It was so thick. 150 schools and colleges were shut in the surrounding areas. Guess what! Ours wasn't. Six of us turned up to college. Our college is near hills so we had more snow then most of the school that were shut. Transport was delayed and they eventually stopped busses to the city centre.

Pancake day | 2016

Image
Hi guys!  Here in the uk on Tuesday it was pancake day (happy belated pancake day) Pancake day comes on the same level as Christmas and my birthday to me because they are my all time favourite food! I could eat them all day. I much prefer crepes over American style pancakes due to them being much thinner. I decided to add a twist to some of my pancakes by adding ground cinnamon to the mixture. They tasted Devine! We didn't add much as we didn't want them to be over powering. The amount we added was just enough for us. We use a basic mixture of flour, egg and milk.  The topping vary from lemon juice to banana. My favourite topping has got to be syrup, a tiny bit or sugar and also lots of vanilla ice cream. Hot and cold just go together and make things taste much better.  100g Flour 1 egg  225ml Milk   Add all of this into a bowl, mix and then get cooking!!  I hope you all enjoyed this blog and I hope to talk to you soon x
