I have to admit that I by the time I got round to thinking about July’s post it was practically time to do August’s. It’s a lot more fun being in the garden than writing about it, but I need to do this if I want to be able to refer back to it

August 2021
August has simply flown by here at Ceefer Mansions. I’ve been getting back into the routine of my residential home craft classes and preparing for the crochet classes at The Wool Haven in addition to the regular working in the garden and baking.

The strap line for this month is “I’m back!” At the residential care homes at least, the crochet classes will begin soon.

Garden, May & June 2021
The garden is where most of my attention has been for the last 2 months. In fact the only reason I’m not out there right now is due to the very heavy rain showers. I’m not complaining it saves me from watering and the plants all need a good drink. (Yes I’ve hit that age)

Potato Scones
This is one of those recipes that I’ve kept thinking I should do and have never got round to before.

Incredible Chocolate Cake
It’s another Mary Berry one and it is everything I’ve ever wanted in a chocolate cake. This was the first of hopefully many holiday baking days with my daughter and while our presentation may not be professional the cakes taste amazing

Elderflower Cordial
I love elderflowers. I love the creamy white floatiness of the flowers, their incredible scent and most of all I love the flavour. I’ve made a few batches of cordial this year so it was time to try this one.

Garden April 2021
This was a stop/start month due to the weather covering all 4 seasons sometimes even in the same day.

My Favourite Chocolate Brownies
I’m not bad at baking, sometimes things might not look as nice as they could but they usually taste good. These brownies however are amazing.
