What a busy weekend...After baking on a hot Friday afternoon I welcomed very generous guests to my kitchen (and garden) where we had alfresco tea and cakes, with all proceeds from the afternoon tea and the raffle going to Macmillan Cancer Relief. I loved the
Fountains Gold cheese sandwiches with homemade (and homegrown) green tomato chutney. Dry cure ham sandwiches were delicious with homemade piccalilli too...Fine Yorkshire fayre!
St. Clements drizzle cake with candied lemon peel...
Mini Victoria sponges...
Scones with cream & local tayberry jam and cherry bakewells...
Pretty vintage china...
Crocheted doilies in pinks and greens...
A lovely time was had by all - and we raised £130.86 for Macmillan.
Many thanks to my friends, family and work colleagues, and special thanks to my lovely friend J for helping on the day and being prepared to wear an apron and a flower in her hair!
