Lovely Friends, Lovely Gifts

It's Easter & I'm stuck at home with a horrible, horrible cold so thought I'd catch up on some long overdue blogging.


Recently we had some friends over for a board games/cocktails evening (as you do) & they brought us the gift of this beautiful pineapple. When we'd finished turning some of it into garnishes for our pina coladas there was still about half of it left. What do you do with half a pineapple?...


Turn it into cake, of course!


The pineapple came with its own specially made label. Despite its tropical appearance, its maker told me the image is actually from Butlins. God, I love Butlins! When I holidayed there with my family in the 80s I have very special memories of this restaurant.
