My friend broccoli

I never cease to be amazed at what can entertain a small child. Today it was broccoli that kept my little one entertained for half an hour. First he had a long chat with the broccoli, talking about the woes of the world i'm sure. Then the broccoli got a little de-leafing haircut and finally he had a bit of a chew before deciding other things were more interesting. It really was the cutest thing though.

On other fronts it's always nice when someone posts a recipe on their blog of the very thing you have been thinking of baking. So tonight for craft group i whipped up this banana cake from cityhippyfarmgirl as a practice run for the birthday next week. Some banana cakes in the past have tended to be a bit dry but not this one, it was perfect - moist and flavoursome. 

Thanks Cityhippyfarmgirl!! Most appreciated. xxx
