For the last 30 years, since she died, I have been using my Mum’s handheld electric mixer to make all my cakes. Last week, it broke having been in use for at least 50 years! I now have a new one and it is both light and really quiet and beat up the mixture in a flash. Here’s to many more cakes!
Here’s the cake that I have made for tomorrow’s market on Murdoch Day in Redruth. Watch this space for the parade and more festival fun.
We’ve bought a new Agapanthus called Fireworks. It is gorgeous. I’ll show you again when it’s in full bloom. Behind it you can see the beautiful cream flowers of the Ginger Lily.
