It’s been a while. How are you?

Long time since my last post.  I’ve been thinking about what I want to blog about first and can’t come to a decision.  I guess it’s list making time.

Our winter is holding firm and everyone around me seems to be sick of it, but growing up in Labrador has tempered me.  I love it!  Little man keeps saying he wants it to be summer, until he gets outside jumping through the snow and climbing up hills to break icicles off the house, and then there’s no mention of spring, summer or anything other than snow and ice.

This week was a baking week for me.  The Great British Bake Off has inspired me to try lots of new things so I’ve separated myself from my usual chocolate chip cookies and banana bread to try other things like profiteroles, coconut macaroons, soft pretzels, and a scrumptious cheddar and beef pie. The pie recipe was a link I came across on Facebook so I’ll post the link as well as my changes and some of my pics.  Hubby was my wonderful photographer for that project so a big thanks for that.  I usually get half way through a project and can’t take pics with gunk all over my hands so I guess I’ll have to set up the tripod for times when he’s at work.

The past few weeks have been busy with kids, animals, house stuff, knitting, meetings, and all the other usual stuff that goes along with life and hopefully I can get a post of two done on the weekend of some of that.

Hope you have all been well and eat something decadent for desert this evening.
