Cooking with chocolate!
We had the idea of making Krispie cakes last week. More of the mixture got eaten than made it into the cake cases, but isn't that what cooking is about when you're 3 and 1?
Adventures in our Bongo - East of England
For half-term this year we took a trip to the eastern side of England. It was cold (we had snow in Stourbridge the day before we left), but we were well prepared for the weather and slept in hats and gloves.
We stopped first in Ferry Meadows, near Peterbrough and enjoyed exploring the country park and also taking a trip on the Nene Valley railway, where we had to pay with a credit card on one of the old manual swiping devices (you know, put the card on then a slip of paper then swipe over it, and fill in the rest by hand!) talk about stepping back in time! We also managed a glimpse of Thomas.
Next stop was Norfolk, and a trip to Cromer to meet with friends. We had a lovely day catching up with the Lindners, playing (err learning ..) in the lifeboat museum and lunching in a cafe.
Finally, we drove down to Cambridge, slept in a service station and wandered around the colleges early on Sunday morning, and arrived home in time for lunch!
