means a Dorset Apple Cake for us!
You didn't really believe me when I said starting the new degree module would mean less cake, did you?
Two days in with "Fine Art Embroidery"... two days of cutting and sticking... and I was in need of some baking therapy. It could well be that there will be more cake rather than less in the next few weeks! I'm feeling a need for another slice...
I hope the eggs weren't windfalls...I can imagine them leaving the hens at a greta speed...
ReplyDeleteI started back on my course today and the desire for some cake or anything sweet certainly came over me. I could do without it, I managed to lose 10lbs over the summer through sheer physical hard work and I don't want to put it all back on again over the winter. Your picture isn't helping :o) but it does look rather nice. Hmmm!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the Dorset apple cake! I love these virtual cakes, I can look at them as often as I like and not gain an ounce, so your therapy is helping both of us.
ReplyDeleteWe only have 1/4 of each birthday cake left and I can thoroughly recommend the recipes. Check out 'The Caked Crusader' on my sidebar then click on Clotted Cream Cake. OH! MY!
ReplyDeleteCake is so soothing and a great stress buster so carry on baking! I love apple cake and apple chutney and live in hope that someone round here will have too many apples! Shop ones are OK but even windfalls taste better.
ReplyDeleteHmmm....I've never had a Dorset Apple Cake, but it sure does look delicious!!!
ReplyDeleteMore cake is definitely better than less!!! Hoping for some myself later, thanks for your good wishes! :)

dorset apple cake- my favourite cake! Have fun with the new module I actually really enjoyed this one which was a surprise.
ReplyDeleteHope to see you on Induction Day
Wish I'd seen this yesterday when I had a bag full of windfalls. Mind you, I made stewed apples instead which is probably far better for the diet ;-)
ReplyDeletehey... you might end up embroidering 'fine' cakes!!
ReplyDeleteYum! I need to collect as many apple recipes as I can to try and get through the ton of apples in my parents new garden!
ReplyDeleteThe cake looks delicious. I've not heard of Dorset Apple cake before either.
ReplyDeleteI love apple cake! Your cake looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI see you've been busy. Sorry I've been out of the loop for a bit.
delicious looking recipe - all the yummier for windfall apples, they are so sweet at that stage.
ReplyDeleteAnd I can see why cake is completely necessary when starting more course work - I'm just surprised it was a "good" cake - I suppose those "bad" (chocolate) cakes will be saved for end of term.
Oh that looks lovely. I knew the no cooking thing wouldn't last. I'm going to check out the recipe!
ReplyDeleteOh that looks delicious I adore apple cake - am going to have to check that recepe out - thanks
ReplyDeleteYum. We were just saying that we needed to find a cake to make for this weekend, to avoid "having" to buy lemon yumyums from Waitrose on Saturday morning...
ReplyDeleteOur girls are "off lay" at the moment.... I have had to BUY eggs! :O( Yummy looking cake. Apple and ginger cake at this end....

ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued by ''fine art embroidery''. tell me more!!
ReplyDeleteCake is the answer to so many worries.
ReplyDeleteoh yum. I made one very similar this week called Swiss apple cake and have just polished off the last portion. Embroidery + cake = square bottom.
ReplyDeleteCake and stitching...perfect! xx
ReplyDeleteOh yum! And I see our apples are ready now here too...
