Cupcakes!!
March 21st, 2010I love my new kitchen (not a new kitchen but a kitchen at a new place). In particular, I love the kitchen table, which I am trying to persuade JT to keep. It is a real ‘baking and crafts’ table. So today, I got out my coolest kitchen things and decided to bake some cupcakes. Photo documentary? Here goes:
Firstly, my sunny view across the rooftops from the kitchen

My JosephJoseph nesting bowls (I love them!) The missing one is the colander, which is in the dishwasher!
Cute cake cases

They look really beautiful – and I expect Twinkle was very interested!
You may have to scrub the old table from time to time – it reminds me of similar ones when we did cookery at school – always finished by getting the scrubbing brushes out! They didn’t seem to have heard of formica and melamine.

Scrummy! They look professional. You’ve GOT to keep the table, we adore ours. Just scrub away the food and red wine stains and wipe a bit of wax on and voila!!

Or use Danish oil. It’s what you use to keep solid wood worktops waterproof. You have to do it regularly but you can always put a reminder in your phone so you don’t forget.
