And Again.

And still it rains; with an occasional little peep through by the sun (VERY occasional!) I have to go into town today for a hair appointment and am not looking forward to it at all. The council has been doing road works all over the place and with the torrential rain there are holes everywhere!


A little taste of sunshine this morning.


So pottering about in the kitchen and checking the girls haven't drowned in the coop; that's about the sum total of my days at the moment. Feet up in front of a fire of a night. Very quiet here in Eden. :)

 PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES.
90 g butter
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
2 eggs
2 cups S.R. flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk

Grease a muffin tray and set oven at 190c. Beat butter and peanut butter together, then gradually add sugar and beat until light. Stir in the vanilla, then the eggs one at a time. Sift the flour with the salt and add alternately with the milk. Spoon into the tins, filling half full, and bake for 20minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer. Makes about 24.
