Novella Baking: Brooklyn Blackout Cake for Conor!
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011/09/brooklyn-blackout-cake-for-conor.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Monday, September 12, 2011. Brooklyn Blackout Cake for Conor! That cream was not for the cake. Rather, Conor's face. Now that Conor's birthday has been and gone, I can post this! Especially since it was a surprise and he actually, properly, had no idea at all. He even suggested to a friend (who was also in on it) to go for a drink in the pub we were setting up with balloons and cake. So he was even more surprised! So yes, THE CAKE. What a beast of a thing. Pop in the o...

Novella Baking: September 2011
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Sunday, September 18, 2011. I'm home in Cavan this weekend (well, until Tuesday since it'll be Mom's birthday) as a trip before we abscond to London. I landed into the kitchen and saw this cute crocheted owl type looking thing on the counter and asked Siobhan what it is. It's my apple cosy. I asked Mom to make me one for school.". So I popped an apple into it and took a snap. I has an apple inside of me. It is the CUTEST thing! I kind of want one for London! Preheat th...

Novella Baking: December 2011
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Saturday, December 3, 2011. Trip to 2 and 4 Cafe. My first post from London! Everything is going really fantastically here in the land of Love Actually (which I've been watching since it's officially THAT TIME OF YEAR) and I've been enjoying finding lovely places in this sprawling city to start to make my regular haunts. I definitely found one earlier in the beautiful surroundings of the cafe 2 and 4. Then on the way to buy the makings of carbonara for dinner, I popped...

Novella Baking: Le Bon Crubeen visit
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011/07/le-bon-crubeen-visit.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Tuesday, July 5, 2011. Le Bon Crubeen visit. Last week Luke brought me out for dinner, and on recommendation of one Louise Tierney, we went to Le Bon Crubeen on Talbot Street. Maybe it's because I'm waitressing at the moment, but I can be super judgemental of how I'm served when I go to other places. But these people were golden. Absolutely. We had main courses with a glass of wine each, then tea and coffee at the end, with me deciding I had to go with dessert too.

Novella Baking: A few firsts
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011/08/few-firsts.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Tuesday, August 16, 2011. Hello kids, how are ya. More statement than question for some reason. Maybe because I'm on that delicate border of being sleepy and heading swiftly towards over-tiredness. But anyway. The past two weeks or so have been quite wonderful for a few reasons. I entered a photo or two into the Virginia Show and got a first place in the Candid Photo category, huzzah! Oh the mixed feelings about leaving. Big love to you all:) x. Milk and Cookie Stories.

Novella Baking: July 2010
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Friday, July 30, 2010. Today is the judging for the Virginia Show, so Mom, Siob and I are going down to drop our things in. I made the coffee cake earlier and realised I never put up the recipe for it! It's really nice (well, the last time I made it it was, I can't cut this one and taste it! And pretty simple, so you should give it a go! They want it undecorated sadly, so that's why mine is lacking some nice coffee cream, but I'll add the recipe here:). Bake in the ove...

Novella Baking: A few recent happenings and findings
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011/07/few-recent-happenings-and-findings.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Saturday, July 16, 2011. A few recent happenings and findings. I've been perched on my bed for absolute hours and am cursing the fact that I don't have all these deadly Sky channels that I can see have tons of cool movies and stuff on and not Tori Spelling discussing her baby weight. 8364;30 in a wear with student discount. That's because IADT never put an expiry date on my card, so I plan to use it whenever possible. Have you seen it yet? Bam What a duo. I found a dea...

Novella Baking: April 2011
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Saturday, April 16, 2011. Don't even look at the date of my last post. I have a gorgeous new netbook who I can bang around with me it's that dinky and I'm gonna sort out proper internet for myself in the next week. Another yummy cake that I've made were Strawberry Jelly Squares. You just made the cake, added the fresh cream, cut it into squares and dipped into sort of solidified jello and then dipped/ rolled it in coconut. Mmm. The delishishness of a lemon drizzle cake...

Novella Baking: Fair London
http://lonely-earring.blogspot.com/2011/09/fair-london.html
Its all about cakes and tea breaks. Thursday, September 8, 2011. I am currently perched on a clean corner of my bed, in the midst of the fifty-seventh clean out of my room in about two months. The Velvet Underground have provided the soundtrack. Another story from our trip was a man carrying a woman's suitcase up a flight of stairs in Gatwick airport when he noticed her struggling. At the top, he then ran off to get a train and she shouted after him "I owe you a pint! I simply LOVE Portobello Road for al...
