A more refined flower today with the emphasis on restfulness before the return to work next week. These little beauties are nestled in my green charity shop jug, bought a few years back. I would have shown you but I can't get a decent picture, probably because I haven't the foggiest what all the buttons on my camera mean. To think I used to laugh at my mother when she would switch off our old stereo deck at the wall because all the buttons confused her.
Fortunately my short-lived aversion to muffins has subsided. That didn't take long did it? All because an interesting article in 'The Times' caught my eye, about the seven things you need to know if you are dreaming of setting up your own coffee shop. Written by Jennie Milsom the co-author of Cafe Life London and owner of Jam and Bread, she also kindly shared her 'hero' product for which customers return again and again. If it is low calorie you are looking for I suggest, as they say on the football results, "look away now", but they are rather nice.

ReplyDeletePeanut butter and chocolate is probably my favourite flavour combination! Recipe bookmarked, Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteOh yum! Thank you so much for sharing :D
ReplyDeleteGlad to be of service. I suggest you use crunchy peanut butter when you try this recipe, so you get crunchy peanuts & chocolate chips in each bite.
