A SMALL VICTORY

Today I couldn't be bothered going to work on time cause I wanted to have a go at making these instead.

Campari and Orange Macaroons.
Grenadine and Fresh Blueberry Macaroons.

I can't decide which was better.

Not to self: when it comes to colouring them, you really cannot hold back on the colour. More is definitely less in this case - which doesn't often happen.

The girls at work were really impressed. When I crack the recipe I will Booyah Cook them.

Then we went for dinner at The Diner. When I got home, I stuck my fingers down my throat after champagne at work, a cocktail, a sailor jerrys with coke and fresh lime and a glass of horrid white wine. I feel a lot better now.

I'M SO SORRY

Hey everyone, I have to say sorry. I've been lying flat on my back for the last two days with the sorest neck muscle spazz out since days. The Cardinal came over with bread, three cheeses, prossecco and pain killers. Oh and an Old Jamaica. She also brought her new R Kelly record over 'Why U Wanna Play Me'. Tears of joy. Silverlink, my doppelganger (I mean LOOK at us both - tall, shaggy hair and glasses), has kept me company online with chats of cake, coffee, ganache, macaroons and praline. And now in bed all I can manage is to type this for a few minutes while watching a repeat of Law and Order SVU.

Please put up with me until I recover, or get a real soya latte from Milk Bar - whichever comes first. OH COOL! Real Life FBI files on telly now.
