I am a mum and wife to a lovely caring family. I’ve suffered with chronic back pain for over 30 years and started writing my first blog in 2007 which covered back and chronic pain. Since then I have written many more blogs for myself and customers. I find it takes me away from my pain to another place. I love it so much I think it should be part of a recovery process after illness or surgery. I hope you enjoy reading through my blogs.

I primarily make loaf cakes simply for the easyiness of making them using loaf tin liners but they all seem to turn out ok and keep well in the cake tin. 🙂

It’s soooooo easy with a loaf tin and loaf liner then just whisk everything together and bobs your uncle – you have a nice cake to eat. 🙂

I’m impressed (you serve this with cucumber sandwiches too?)like the Barm Brack recipe I use, adding vanilla extract and replacing Typhoo with Earl Grey Tea!
