The other day, while Little Miss Q slept…
Dino Boy and I baked *smile*
Gingerbread… he decided
And so we got the ingredients ready for him to make the dough
30 g butter
60 g brown sugar
4 tbsp golden syrup
pinch salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup flour
cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cayenne pepper to taste
These days I can step back…
…and let him do much of the baking himself…
{and he loves that he can}
So he melted the butter, sugar and syrup before adding the dry ingredients *smile*
Then worked it until is was a good dough, before rolling it out and cutting his shapes!
We enjoyed our afternoon tea at our Toadstool Nook
Eating up shooting stars and angry cats *wink*
And isn’t there something lovely…
…about drinking homemade lemonade from a jar *smile*
Surrounded by beautiful blooming poppies!
Gush ~ my little man makes me smile ♡
Happy days,
Kelly

I absolutely LOVE gingerbread and will be making this for Christmas. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I love your food photos. I don’t know how you do it, but every time I see a picture I can smell the food. Those ginger cookies look delicious.
Those cookies look so good! I’ve been looking for a gingerbread recipe – I might have to try this one with my girls. Thank you for sharing it.
I envy you your sunshine at the moment, and the lemonade and gingerbread too!
