Bye bye November! Hello December – which means Christmas isn’t just around the corner anymore; it’s literally on the block. Maybe you’re ready for it, or maybe you’d prefer to just shut the curtains and pretend you’re not at home. I might not be anywhere near ready (I say I’m going to be more organised […]
Hands up then, who’s planning on putting their tree up this weekend?

Ugh! For the record, I don’t mind raisins at all – I just don’t want them anywhere near my buns, hun. I’m a purist, what can I say? (Although, clearly not that much of a purist since this whole post is about me meddling around with the basic cinnamon bun recipe!) So I decided to make my own Cinnamon Buns, and I wondered, how can I make them even better?
