on my hook...
joining some squares that used to be a garland. They're being turned into a cushion.

in my kitchen...
a cranberry bakewell tart (from 'Feast' by Nigella Lawson). I try to find an excuse to make this every Winter. As if an excuse were needed.
and marmalade making - Seville orange and tangerine this year. It could have done with more tangerine and less orange but it's good all the same. And such a beautiful colour.

Loving what you're up to....bake well is a huge favourite, and I've made it loads (often GRamsey) but never from Feast, but I do have it so will give it a try....yum!
ReplyDeleteI also have an addiction to those little spicy biscuits, what do they put in them? My husband thinks I'm mad, but then there's all the more for me!
Love the colour of the marmalade, I have some quince jelly I made last year and the colour is just gorgeous.
The squares are making up into a lovely cushion - good idea! I've never made a Bakewell, but I do love eating it! Beautiful photos Victoria :)x
ReplyDeleteYour cushion is really pretty ~ the colours work really well together. Also, love the look of that bakewell tart ~ yum! Hope you have a fab weekend :O)x

ReplyDeleteHello Victoria
ReplyDeleteI've been resisting getting my crochet hooks out but after seeing your cushion I'm no longer sure! I wanted to try and stick to 2 projects on the go rather than get carried away with different ideas. I feel a severe urge to get hooky this weekend :0)
Love the marmalade colour too, I have a thing for orange and mustard colours at the moment. Hope you have a great weekend too and I'm off to the shops now to get me some lebkuchen ! x
I made marmalade yesterday too. Love the sight of the jars lined up on the windowsill, glowing in the sunlight:)
ReplyDeleteMmmmm please send me some cake :D
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to turn the garland into a cushion, love it! x
Mmmm delicious kitchen creations! Love that you are taking a spring bunting and turning it into a winter cushion!! Great stuff :)
ReplyDeleteSigh, what a beautiful post full of lovely homey things. Thank you for sharing.

My parents in law used to sell all sorts of Lebkuchen in the delicatessen they owned before they retired.
ReplyDeleteMy mouth is watering at the thought of that jewel like marmalade!
Everything looks amazing. The tart and the marmalade are making my mouth water and I love tulips!
