Nostalgic baking

------- * -------

Cream-filled sponges, ginger kisses, lamingtons, custard squares, chocolate éclairs, club sandwiches and sausage rolls... Am I making anyone hungry yet?

I spotted this scrumptious book in Borders tonight and couldn't resist sharing.
This book is full of traditional recipes for home-made biscuits, slices and cakes - to name a few. Recipes for tasty gems your Mum and Nana whipped up in the oven!

I've taken a real shine to baking lately, biscuits in particular. I just find it so satisfying and it beats supermarket bikkies and cakes any day! Maybe I need this book?

Have a great weekend. More interesting stuff to share later, promise! x

Ps.
In other news, I will be at Kraftbomb next weekend. PANIC ALERT! I only just found out so was stalling until now. I will most likely be solo this time so must immediately make, make, make!
