Friday Baking....

We always do our 'big' shop on a Friday so that usually means, along with all the usual mundane everyday things, buying ingredients and baking something yummy for the weekend and also getting some pretty flowers for the kitchen windowsill.


So this today I knew what I was going to bake.  Jooles over at the gorgeous Sew Sweet Violet posted a recipe for Raspberry and Marzipan Muffins.  When I saw them I knew I had to have a go at making them as I absolutely LOVE marzipan and they looked so so scrummy, and boy they did not dissapoint!


In pretty Cath Kidson cupcake cases with a lovely cuppa in a pretty cup this was the perfect afternoon pick-me-up.  Little Miss enjoyed them too!


And here they are with my pretty daffodils. They are the palest cream colour with a gorgous peachy colour centre, more pics to follow when they fully open.

Also before I go I just wanted to thank all of you who have stopped by to leave me some lovely comments and welcome me to blogland, its lovely to know I not jabbering along to myself :)
Wishing you all a beautiful weekend whatever you are up to.
