Happy lil ❤’s are baking ~ polka dot banana cake

What did you bake or cook with your kids this week?

Below is a linky list so you can join in the fun and start sharing what you bake with your kids! Family favourites, new recipes, cultural or traditional recipes – you name it, we’d like to read about them, and if you include the details, try them out 🙂 

We had some bananas turning the other day…
So thought we’d better bake a cake *smile*

We found a great Polka Dot Banana Bread recipe over at Chocolate-Covered Katie!

So we could use what we had on hand we made a couple of changes…
…almond milk, cacao nibs and no extra sweetener *smile*

Dino Boy enjoys grinding up the cacao nibs… and mashing the bananas
Both activities are such great work for little arms!

He then poured the ingredients together… carefully, carefully

Before stirring them well *smile*
We poured the mix into a cake tin and baked at 180C for 30 minutes

And it was delicious!

And now, we can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to in the kitchen with your kids!

Barns for some farms…

I’ve been making little barns for a Bits of Goodness swap…
They were such fun to design …with each one having its own character {or so I like to think!}
Happily we have invested in some new wood working tools… 
…jigsaw blades for cutting on the curve
…and a new belt & disc sander 
 ~ which leads to big smiles all round ~
{okay… mostly me!}

And a sneak peek at a mini knitted farm…
Made with love for my friend’s new baby son 

Warmly, Kelly
