Super Sweet Blog Award




Super sweeties Sue and Patsy have nominated me for the Super Sweet Blogging Award.

These are the questions I have to answer.

1.  Cookies or cake? 

Cake and lots of it! The more the merrier – as long as it doesn’t have dried fruit in.

2.  Chocolate or vanilla?  

Chocolate. I’m not a great fan of vanilla.

3.  What is your favourite sweet treat?  

It varies, but at the moment I have a bit of a passion for Lemon Meringue Pie. In fact I fancied it so much, I made one from scratch. I always used to use a packet mix, but I had no packet. But I did have lemons, so make it I did and nice it was too.

4.  When do you crave sweet things most?  

All the time. Tis true I’m afraid.

5.  If you had a sweet nickname what would it be?  

Remember those lovely desserts you used to buy in little tubs? No, not mousses or fools, but Lovelies! I think they were made by Bird’s Eye and beneath the lid there was your chocolate dessert with cream on top. There was nothing to compare with a chocolate Lovely. I have been called Little Lovely so it’s kind of sweet isn’t it? Not that I’m little or lovely these days!

Not sure how many people I should pass this on to, but please take a cake er I mean an award and if you’ve already had one, well take another, why not? It’s free! And just answer the 5 questions above – if you want to of course.

I’m not being lazy by not naming names, well I am, but honestly I started to make a list and it got so long because you’re all lovely, so genuinely, please, take one! Go on go on go on go on go on…..

    I can't tell how little or otherwise you are just from the internet, but I can tell that you're lovely!

    Oh Teresa, you're always our little lovely. Cake is great isn't it? Life would be bland without it. That lemon meringue sounds smashing, it's my Mum's favourite.

      I used to have afternoon tea with my mum when I was first married - posh cups, biscuits and cakes and long chats - lovely memories, thanks Paula :-) I did an afternoon tea a while back with scones and cakes - we should do it more often x

    I remember Lovelies. My husband liked eating them semi-frozen. Just as well, they took ages to thaw!
