@whitworthsuk very kindly sent me some of their lovely dried fruit and nuts last week to do a bit of Easter baking and so I made this very easy (and very scoffable...) Mini Egg Tiffin Cake! With a ginger biscuit base and a creamy chocolatey topping, it's perfect for munching on after you've polished off your Easter roast 👌🏻

Spent the afternoon sunning myself in a beer garden with a massive burger and just basically being a great big, British Bank Holiday cliché. How about you?
Four Day Weekend! 🙌🏻 .

Kicked things off this afternoon "Gin-wagging" (...is that a thing, can that be a thing?) at Gin and Juice with the lovely @thisgirlisblog, where we mostly talked about our badly-behaved (but beloved!) doggos @bunglethegolden and @astridthedal 🐶🐶
Take me baaaaaaaaaack. 🙏🏻

Back when I lived in London, I used to treat myself to a Krispy Kreme whenever I passed through Paddington Station on the way home from Cardiff. It was always my little "Back to London" pick-me-up (y'know, doughnut worry, be happy!); they're my favourite! So I was over the moon when @KrispyKremeuk asked me to come and check out their brand new rocket store in @mcarthurglenbridgend yesterday - the very first of its kind in Wales! Oh and keep an eye out on Krispy Kreme's Facebook page because in May they're going to be having a "Decorate your own Doughnut" competition, with a £50 voucher up for grabs. That's a looooooot of dough to spend on doughnuts my friend 😉 #kkbridgend

Oh hey, hands up - who's staying up for Game of Thrones tonight? And hands up who's going to have their fingers in their ears for the next 24 hours? 🙄
