My Friday ended up a busy day; it also became a baking Friday morning in the end.
Chocolate and almond cake, from Hairy Bikers' Baking book, one of our favourite cakes.
Also a loaf of bread, which I made in Remoska.
"In what?" I hear you ask.
Our Czech friends will know exactly what I am talking about.
For the rest - Remoska is a "mini oven", a Czech invention, which has been around for more than 70 years.
It is very simple and clever, just one "on and off" button,
it is the lid which does the cooking and is self regulating.
Later that day I made macaroni cheese in it;
it also makes a very good risotto.
I could had made the cake in it earlier, but this recipe makes a rather large cake, my Remoska is the smaller size, but I do make other cakes in it as well.
Good on energy.
What else can you ask?
My Friday afternoon was spent in my sewing room. Recently I resurrected Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt.
The next stage is a border around the centre part, made of 3,5 inch log cabin blocks,
I need 52 of them, so lots to do.
But I did join others in "Friday Night with Friends" in the end!
I have been playing with some applique blocks and in the evening I finished the top block.
I have no idea where this is going, but it is just fun for now.....
Big Thank You to Cheryll for getting us together again!
Also some last colour in the garden.
I hope you all have a wonderful week crafting!
