Rainy day blues


These dreary, cold, wet winter days make me feel like I’m in danger of coming down with something. You’ve got to look after yourself. ConQEST is only 2 weeks away and we don’t want you missing it because of the flu.

Miss Vivi’s suggestion – get into the lemons and ginger.

Gingerbread Cake with Lemon Icing
3/4 cup golden syrup
3/4 cup water
185g butter
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1 1/2 tsp bicarb soda
1 1/2 tbsp ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp all spice
3/4 cup self raising flour

Gingerbread Cake
Straight out of the oven - yum!

Melt syrup, water and butter together. Mix into dry ingredients. Bake at 180C for 25 mins.

Lemon Icing

1 tbsp milk
1 tsp butter
1/4 cup icing sugar
zest of a lemon
juice of 1/2 lemon

Melt butter into milk. Mix in icing sugar and zest. Thin with lemon juice to right consistency.  Drizzle over a slice of cake.

Rug up and enjoy it with a cup of tea

Enjoy!

Would the real Miss Vivi please stand up?

Look who we found at the SASS conference at Graystanes today

With the funky purple hued hair and the big blue eyes could it be that Miss Vivi has a sister in Sydney? And how good is that t-shirt?

She is, of course, a labbie but she insists that she is much healthier looking than our Vivi – especially around the mouth.  Quite right, too.   Although we agreed we’d both be pleased if we’d been blessed with Vivi’s legs.
